I had a great Hobby Christmas.

My sons between them got;
SM Landspeeder
SM Thunderfire Cannon
SM Biker squad
Warriors of Chaos Battalion
Wulfric
Khorne Lord
Ork Battlewagon
and the realm of battle game board

and I was lucky enough to get some more Bloodletters and Skulltaker along with the mega paint set.

Needless to say we have been doing nothing but gluing and painting all day.

I got some Xbox points and bought Braid. It's very good so far. But does it save when you finish something? Because I had to turn it off to let my Mom play Sean White Snowboarding. I also got a copy of Spore, but I need a new computer for that one.

Other than that no gaming stuff so far. Just lots of money. Think I might buy a few models this weekend with some of it. I've given a lot of games. Sean White for my mother, Dead Space for my sister, a DS with Phantom Hourglass for my girlfriend (who is glued to that thing now, I may never get any again). I'll update after the big gift exchange later. Everyone comes to our house and exchanges gifts on Christmas because we are the family 'Winrars'.

I'm embarrassed that I sunk down and bought "it" so I won't say what "it" is but when I walked out of my GW store I had "it" and the cardboard Plasma Ammo box with a couple pieces of new scenary for "it"......btw "it" is beautiful, I love "it".

"It" was worth every penny! IMO

"And what is wrong with their life? What on earth is less reprehensible than the life of the Levovs?"
- American Pastoral, Philip Roth

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed at him, we leagued with him, old chum.
No soldier's paid to kick against His powers.
We laughed - knowing that better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags.

I got a new computer from the wife (hey it's game related!), a box of lootas/burnas and two ork commandos with burnas from the brother in law, and two killa kans from the best friend. I made out like a bandit! I usually get socks and some stuff that I promptly drop off at good will as soon as no ones looking. The mother-in-law didn't disappoint though... I got the prerequisite bag of socks! (I actually needed them this time though.

Merry Christmas everyone!

However, I also got my BEST PRESENT EVER today...
My 7yr. old son's beaming adoration for the new 7-piece drum set I got him. Then he sat down, played some small beats I showed him and he even kept time! NEVER been behind a drum befor ein his life. I actually got my guitar out and played along with him. It was a beautiful thing. Both my sons are born with the gift of music. I am so blessed...

I almost cried. I have been riding this high ALLLLLL day.
