Keep feeding your girls art supplies. There's something there.

Codenames: Deep Undercover - we'll see how this works out.
Takenoko: Chibis - swear to god, she specifically asked for it.
Codenames card display board from Etsy - again, she was interested in that.
Stuff I got:
Parade - A family sort of game, where you're trying to minimize points every turn.
Murder of Crows - Spell 'MURDER', where each card helps you, hurts them, or both.
Grind - Boss decided on that instead of Blood Bowl*. I still love her.
Nuclear War - I played the hell out of this way back in the 80's, but I'm pretty sure that I haven't asked for it lately. I was pleasantly surprised.
Witch Hunt - She thought she was buying Salem for me. The good news was that she messed up, because I don't think Salem is worth owning, The bad news is that it's Werewolf on steroids, and I don't get 8+ Werewolf players that often.
Star Trek: Ascendency - I specifically asked for this. I'm tempted to open it up just to look at it.
That was a big haul for me. I usually bum a game off of her, but I don't get this many. I'm happy with it.
* I told her, "Blood Bowl or ST:A, but don't get both because that's too much to spend on games." I also think I might have scared her off of GW products, since she knows that there are more than two teams in Blood Bowl.

Also have some cash that I expect will be spent on a set of D&D core books, though Star Trek Ascendancy is mighty tempting as well.

But as a gift to myself, i did the final touches in photoshop yesterday and I printed out all the final materials for Destroy all Monsters!
The cards look so good when printed on photo paper, that I doubt I will farm them out to a professional service like PrinterStudio.
Now I just need the clear round and hexagonal bases from litko to arrive. The wait is arduous.

This is the first time in probably 25 years I have not gotten a videogame for Christmas, though.
Games
Ora et Labora: you guys know I'm sort of a Rosenberg sucker, the more aimless and non-game like the better---apparently in short supply, Zman printed some tiny number to keep the license
Star Trek Ascendency
Labyrinth expansion
Hunters expansion to Theseus
Strange remnants and signs of Carcosa Eldritch horror expansions
Armada ships---Assault Frigate #2, Correllian Corvette #3, Imperial Raider #2

That's basically both an amazingly kind gift and the sweetest possible way to say "I fucking hate your games, but I'll play them and take one for the team"
Good kids!

We're spending every dime on a remodel, so we opted to no-go Christmas presents for the most part. Despite my wife buying 300$ in bras, panties, and sweaters and having me wrap them.
