A Sea Of Red

Yes, I know its early but why wait?
What did you get?
What did you want?

So far, a pair of two-way radios (aka, walkie talkies) and an electric stove/heater that looks like a wood burner:

With a 25-mile range, they would even reach to backwoods Concord, VA.

Sweet! I went ahead and bought a tandem kayak as a present to the whole family. Merry Christmas to me.

If anyone is looking for a last minute gift for me, I humbly suggest

In the words of every red-blooded kid of the '70s, I used to have that but my mom threw it out with my baseball cards while I was in college.

Yep.

Excellent.

I stumbled across the family gift concept a few years back. You have to have a valid excuse to your spouse why it has value to multiple family members and you can't play this card every year. Otherwise, it rocks.

Trying to picture the Sly family kayak:

We will likely limit it to 3 onboard at once. But I like the idea!

Merry Christmas and a Happy, Happy, Happy New Year to all!

I got a trip to Oklahoma to introduce Michael to family that hasnt gotten to meet him. My in-laws got us a couple gifts but those won't be revealed until tomorrow

merry christmas all;

Mrs Claus gave me 20 grand to build a man cave earlier this year so thats what me and the boys got.

though I'm pretty sure the sleigh will show up with more stuff for them some time overnight

I'm hoping for at least 1 pack of socks and underwear as a surprise tho.

everybody be safe

I was Christmas shopping for Mrs. Cider today, but I also landed for myself a CD of "Duck the Halls: A Robertson Family Christmas" for 5 bucks at WalMart. In the middle of the Christmas carols, Phil prays the Gospel message in such a way that it would have made Doc proud.

Anniversary = Trip to Vegas over Super Bowl Sunday
Christmas = Cruise#5
I did pretty good. I wonder what my wife got me

Share the deets on the cruise, please. My parents and Mrs. Sly's parents are taking a cruise together in a few weeks. Yes, you read that properly. We did a cruise the past spring for the first time in a decade. We won't be waiting as long for our next.

Got some shirts a hoodie and The Blind Side on DVD. I will be watching that as soon as I get home to Virginia

The kids got Skylanders Swap Force and Disney Infinity. I got new preaching clothes and a breakfast sandwich maker.

And we all got a 60" plasma TV. Now I just need a slightly bigger wall to put it on

It sounds like you are an Amazon Prime household.

There must have been an incredible sale at Jos A. Bank because my family geared me up big time. But my favorite gift was my Chromecast. What an incredible little device.

The Chromecast is quite nice. I'm not using mine a lot right now, but will be once Plex unleashes the chromecasting ability to all users instead of just paid users.

Straight cash, homey.

Vegas will be the last weekend in January as our National meeting starts first week in Feb
The cruise is on Celebrity over Easter which is her Spring Break. We have been on the itinerary before but love taking cruisese. We are currently on an every other year cycle!
