I got a couple shirts and ties, some money and gift certificates and few other items I can't remember.
My wife and I don't exchange gifts because if we want something through the year, we just get it and say "Hey, Merry Christmas" We just got TiVo and I have FINALLY convinced her to get a new plasma HiDefinition TV for the family room. I can't believe she actually WANTS to get it now!
I can't wait to watch football on that bitch.

I hear they might've held hands.

ROFL, indeed.
We were considering holding hands for so long.. you know, taking it up to the next level. After a year of discussing it, we finally decided to do it. :D
... Bastard.

My favorite part of Christmas wasn't a present, though. My parents held my mom's family's Christmas at their place. We had a massive stuffed animal/pillow/nerf gun fight and laughed until we cried. Major kudos to my parents for not freaking out as the teddy bears went flying into the food.

Yeah, I remember doing that. It's amusing to see the girls the first time they are taken onto the highway. I think I used "Keith's Driving School". Frightening that you'll be driving in my state, though.

The best thing I got was an Xbox for my son.
Er, of course I bought it for him...it's not like I shoved him out of the way on xmas morning and played it all weekend...it's all for him. Honest.

I got baby stuff. Cause when you get pregnant, you cease to exist as an individual anymore, so I am left admiring all the baby clothes and rattles, and what have you.

My best gift was my father living through his congestive heart failure.
Everything else was just... things. I'm back home and I get misty eyed thinking about him the first day I say him (after I drove 27 hours to get there upon hearing about it),oxygen connected to his nose, IV's in both arms, his face all red and flustered looking, him obviously having problems breathing. I was shaken to the core.
The good news is, after 5 day sin the hospital (Christmas included :( ), this episode scared the shit out of him. Hopefully he'll follow through on the things he said he would. Like stop smoking. Walk every day (he walked 10 minutes on the treadmill I bought him for christmas -- it's great, checks his heartrate, and in tandem with antoher thing I got him checks his blood pressure and I forget what else). 10 Minutes. If he does that everyday, it'll be heaven on earth for me.
I'm not a praying man, though I am religious, and I pray he gets better. Thinking of life without him makes things a bit darker for me.
Get better Dad.

Jake and I did season passes to Disneyland, but he also got me the silver mesh Tiffany ring I've been drooling over.

Some of my relatives got us Pottery Barn gift certificates (yay)... season 8 of Friends, my Grandma bought us $1000 worth of Wrigley's stock... other random stuff.
