I remember when my wife was a GF and I used to get all kinds of cool shit. That slows down a lot when they cross over to wife......I got money and clothes. Last cool thing I got from her was a b-day present about 3 years ago when she bought me a bc rich guitar and a line 6 pod. I prefer these days for my son to pick out my presents.....he has a knack for it. Gets me useful stuff.

Didn't know you knew how to play Guitar (How would I

) Thats some good shit! I'm not worried about less gifts if I get married because to be brutally honest with everyone......since my brother died, I don't celebrate Christmas

I didn't want to this year but my GF has a 10 year old from her marriage (1st and only FYI

) I actually had a good time this year because I loved watching his eyes light up from the gifts I gave him. There is hope for me yet

well......I guess you need to ask yourself if that's what your brother would want? I would imagine it would actually bother him a little bit to know he's the reason you don't celebrate christmas but only you know what he would think. After having kids x-mas takes on a whole new meaning. It definitely becomes less about you and more about them. I love watching the kids open presents and they still believe in santa so it's a pretty special thing.

Not for me! But then again when I was dating my wife she was in her late teens and did'nt have any money.lol

Married,, I make out pretty good every year even though I ask for nothing.

Our kid makes out like a bandit though every year.

Nah, not me, only thing I got into trouble over is when I came home with another engine..

But pretty much I can spoil myself anytime as I don't restrict her either..

It was tricky this year, being 10 he is getting to the point were he will find out about Santa sooner rather then later. We played it cool and it worked this year. At 10 I already had figured out Santa didn't exsist but he believes so we will keep running with that attitude

It was my first Christmas with them and him and it was an awesome feeling watching him open gifts. I could get use to it

it's always great when we're out somewhere and a stranger asks Zach about his missing teeth ( has a whole shitload of them gone in the front right now) and then they always ask if the tooth fairy came to see him. He breaks out the Vann story about how hot the tooth fairy is.

Wife got me a Die Hard jump box. 2 12v outlets, 2 110v outlets, light, usb charger, air compressor all built in. It's freakin sweet. She also made me up a little photo album with pics of my mom who died of cancer at 27 years old. Best gift ever.

Bought myself a new laptop with HD display blu-ray player, hdmi out, usb 3.0 ports, 4 gb, 500 gb hdd, fingerprint reader and beats audio. Love it.
