Call it materialistic, corny, whatever your perspective may be, but use this thread to share your favorite holiday gift(s) or experience(s) this year! It can be something you did, something you received as a gift, whatever! But if you just did/got something awesome and wanna let it out, here's the perfect place to do it!

Myself, my parents got me an early bday/Christmas (I'll just group em since they're next to each other for me) present by giving me a trip to Tampa to watch the visiting Colorado Avalanche play the Lightning. We ended up staying in a really nice hotel, and seeing the players the next morning, since they ended up staying in the same place. As for some things I got, I got a few nice hockey books I wanted, an interesting book on the Bacardi family, a very nice watch, framed picture, and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood!

I hope everyone's Holidays were great.

Actually this is fine as it is.

Like to know everyone else's experiences too.

As for me: I got a brand new digital camera! (Plus 1 year of Xbox LIVE service, finally... no more renewing every 3 months!)

[Lid]

Had a great holiday, had dinner over at family friends house last night, then for Christmas today I got an Adrian Peterson jersey.

[Muffins?]

I got Madden NFL 11, Red Dead Redemption (Finally, I never got around to buying it.), a Brian Dawkins Bronco jersey and some Nike apparel. Along with various little things like a flashlight and a giant hersheys kiss.

I got to see my nieces play with my daughter and their excited "NO WAY!!?" when they got something they had been wanting.

[FullmetalNinja25]

Got a whole mess of Games a few BluRays and a pair of Pajama Bottoms and I had lunch with my extended family.

[Nate River]

Got up, opened presents, and ate food. My four year old niece had fun and my son's too young to understand what is going on even though he got to most presents.

Did I mention I had duck for dinner?

[alexander]

Not too much here, just an christmas meal with turkey and everything, and got stuck on the afternoon playing new vegas. Oh and I posted a little something on deviantart: http://tommyvercetty...stmas-190912937

[KungFuTruffle]

Got Final Fantasy XIII for XBox 360, and went out to eat at a chinese buffet. No dishes = Win.

[KonaKonaFan]

My favorite gifts were an XBox 360 (finally!) and a laptop.

Oh, and I got a super-pimpin' hat.

This Christmas I got:

19" ACER HD Monitor
A few books by Stewart Woods and Clive Cussler
Authentic Baltimore Ravens Ed Reed Jersey
Best Buy gift card
Four Xbox 360 games (AC: Brotherhood, Bayonetta, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and Resonance of Fate)
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 1-2
Logitech speakers + base
Mad Men Season 1-3
Thermal Shirts/Pants + new workout gloves
Three movies (Inception, The Town, and Toy Story 3)
Washington Capitals t-shirt

I had a good portion of my family come in from Virgina so it was a nice experience seeing them all together after a few months. Also this whole week I was able to meet my friends returning from school (outside of the state) and had lunch/dinner with a few of them. With winter break going on Ill have a chance to hang out with them some more. It's been a good day and week.

You know if you play the multiplayer of AC:B and don't invite me, I'll hunt you down, right?

[True]

I wouldn't expect any less from an assassin...

I hope that it's the Aflac one. He makes me want to cheat from my vegetarian ways.

[tricksie]

Snow. Lots and lots of it. Still coming down. I've never in my life had a white Christmas. So beautiful.

[Cloud]

Hey True. I want your gifts.

Nah, I'm kidding.

I went over to a family friend's house for dinner, we did secret santa this year. Managed to pick my sister's name out of the hat, and she picked mine. I gave her the Inception Blu-Ray limited edition, and she bought me AC: B limited edition.

Fair trade. I'm happy.

[Derock]

I'm not sure if it was...

All I know was that he was very tasty to eat. Though I believed my mom used to too much orange sauce for marinate.
