My Christmas

I guess I should post about my Christmas before the New Year arrives. :)
Our tree.
I had a wonderful Christmas morning with my wife Ginny, son Kenny and his girlfriend Jordyn. After the kids sorted out all of the gifts, we tore into them. I got the usual stuff like clothes, socks, underwear, scrapbooking supplies, etc. But, my wife really outdid herself this year.

One day in December she snuck out to a vintage toy store called The Toys Time Forgot. She bought me a bunch of great geeky stuff. And the amazing thing is, I didn't have any of this stuff yet.

1977 Incredible Hulk plastic mug

Frankenstein hand puppet

Alex Ross Incredible Hulk head mini-bust

Creature from the Black Lagoon t-shirt (pay no attention to "the girl")
Kenny and Jordyn also went all out this year. They bought me a Pittsburgh Steelers mini helmet autographed by the great Franco Harris. Wow!!!
After that we went to the in-laws for great food and family. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and that you have a wonderful New Year!

I would also like to thank Michael Jones from the blog My Two Yen Worth. He sent me a bunch of Japanese Godzilla trading cards that I gave to my brother for Christmas. Thanks Michael!
