Most Awesome Lady was right Happy with the CD player for her new ride! And of course the mandatory jewelry (Native Art hand-carved silver Hummingbird Earrings) certainly brought a SMILE!!
Good thing I splurged a little! This time of year we are always more than a tad tight. Not working so I can chase steel every winter has a toll, and that generally translates into keeping Christmas expenses right low...
Apparently I didn't follow the rules... ;)
But then again, neither did She! ;D
A Beautiful new high-end Bushnell Laser Rangefinder has not left my neck since opening it! Ranged EVERYTHING in sight from the Hacienda's balcony, and am some seriously IMPRESSED! Those critters I chase with pointy sticks have an even greater problem now methinks!!
And... the Eddie Bauer Diver's Watch from my Bro was a rather sweet touch too!
Can't say Thank You enough!
Now off to deliver a few presents to my invalid sister! She's in for some Nice Surprises!
Hope Santa was Smiling in everyone's direction this year!!
Cheers & Happy HoliDaze Folks!

I did pretty well this year as well as had a blast spoiling the kids and watching them open their presents. At ages four and nine, it's a great age and I love how excited they were with everything. That makes the season worth it right there.
As far as fishing related, a Sage VT2 7130 spey and a pair of Korker chromes with klingon, felt and studded felt soles definitely made my day although I had an idea they would be under the tree as I helped the wife pick them out.
Hope the holidays treat everyone well and here's hoping for a happy and prosperous steelhead season ;D

My two girls both got Disney princess fishing rods from their grandparents. So my wife is now the only non fishermen/fisherwomen in the house!

Well I did not bad, a new pair of Bare breathable waders, a Sage hip/chest pack to replpace the fishing vest, and a pro wire former from Hagens so that now I can build my own in-line spinners which is awesome. We also got a family gift ;D which was a xbox 360 with kinect. The kids got spoiled as usual and seeing their faces when opening their gifts makes it all worth it.
