>We had a great Christmas. We did a webcam Christmas with my oldest daughter and her family. That was different, but at least we got to see the grandkids tearing through the gifts! A friend shot some pheasants and gave me a few. The wife cooked them for dinner and that was great too. I got her a ruby and diamond ring and a 13" digital photo frame. It's pretty cool. All those digital pictures I've got on my laptop from the past several years are now scrolling through.Photos from here to Colorado, to Chicago, to the Bahamas and back reminding us of good times.

Those digital photo frames seem like they would be a great gift. Not to mention the ring. (She deserves a medal, too, for putting up with you for so long, LOL).
