The only thing that I could possibly complain about is that an uncle gave the kids a small aquarium. After our cat died a few years ago, we decided we would be a no pets household. So I hid the thing in the basement after the kids opened it and they were busy playing with other presents. If they notice and ask about it, I'll tell them that we don't do pets in our house. But it would have been easier if this uncle hadn't pushed pets on us for Christmas. He meant well.


If they do remember it, you could use it for tadpoles in the spring and then release the frogs....

Sea monkeys!

(as an aquarium use, not a disappointing gift)

Sea happy monkeys!

Actually we did the Sea Monkey thing before. They all died. But apparently you are supposed to let the sea monkey water evaporate completely and then any possible eggs that were laid will then become re-animated when you add water again. My wife and I got in trouble because we dumped the water out after a couple weeks. It was starting to smell. Daughter of glatt was pissed. We didn't realize. :o

A deep fryer. Just goes to show how oblivious some people are. Its gonna get re-gifted eventually.

I was supposed to be the gift for my parents- coming home for christmas. I would request an exchange or return if I were them. :)

As for me, I loved all my gifts. No complaints here.
