Just received my Christmas present from the girlfriend. Couple of mini-helmets one signed by Gardner and Cam Gordon, the other by coach Hoke. Merry Christmas Mgoblog

Santa gave us our electricity back at ten pm. Best Christmas present I got this year by far. Sick of filling the generator up already!! And...the neighbors without generators found it offensive that I left my Christmas lights on during the outage. What gives!?!?
Merry Christmas y'all!! Here's to a safe , happy, prosperous new year (and hopefully at least 10 wins in '14:-)

Great use of a generator to keep your Christmas lights going. 

The day of Hurricaine Sandy my neighbor (without a generator) asked me to move my generator to the back of my house because the noise bothered him (there were 3 other generators going on our street at the time). Two days later when the power was still out he asked to borrow it.

Presents lobbed to daughter, generally uncatchable but in this case 2.5/3 [sewing machine, dummy, and needlepoint of her horse]

To husband, who is the Jeremy Gallon of present recipients, 2/2 [two Alfred Hitchcock collections on DVD]

To son, who is usually acts as family RB (can run with anything) in this case 2/2 on a couple of short tosses with consider YAR [a trip to the Michigan Stanford game and an espresso maker]

Everybody happy with me as QB! Hope all is well with you fols too!

Merry Christmas from Las Vegas, NV. My first Christmas as a father (10 month old twins, boy and girl), we have opened up two presents and they seem pretty content, now asleep. Breakfast burritos and dogfish head 90 minute is up next! Be safe everyone!

Animal Emergency Clinic with one of our precious dogs. Blood panels, x-rays and ultra sounds, in addition to the full exam, revealed no probable causes for his symptoms (or suggested any cures). He spent the night and was a little more perky this morning, but he still wouldn't eat. We made an appointment with a specialist for tomorrow morning. He has eaten a little since we have had him home for a few hours. Our "worst Christmas ever" was put into perspective on our way to the clinic this morning. We passed an assisted living home that had 3 emergency vehicles in front (with lights flashing) and men were busy moving a stretcher. I told my wife, "there is someone having a worse Christmas than us." Be thankful for your blessings. Merry Christmas to one and all. And Santa, if you are still on duty, all I really want for Christmas is my dog's good health back.

I was at the ER this morning with my son. Nothing all that serious; he should be fine in a few days. Grateful for awesome cheerful UM hospital staff who worked today.

As I walked out of there with my soon-to-be-healthy son I gave a thought to the families who were spending Christmas at the hospital.

Love to all the MGoBlogger families having a rough holiday for that or other reasons.

My wife and I were up until 3 am, mostly wrapping presents for the two little ones and then watching TV.  Luckily our kids didn't get up until 9.  Merry Christmas everyone!

What rifle do you have? I have a Bravo Company Recce 16. It's awesome. We had our first Christmas Shootout this year, hopefully it becomes an annual event. An optic is on my list, but they are so expensive. Merry Christmas!

from blackthorne. Magpul grips & heat shield; just put a Burris fast fire on a 45 degree base for a rapid backup sight behind the IOR fixed 4 power. Pretty fun little toy. My 5.56 is a bushmaster stainless varminter. I'm actually trying to decide if I want the EoTech bad enough for the 6.8, or if I want to go for a vari-x 3 for the bushmaster.
