A donation we made in SILs name. I really think she's going to be so excited about it.

A small little joke gift that I think DH is going to really love.

Re: Name a gift (or a few gifts) that will give you the most joy to GIVE this holiday!!!

This is one of the few Christmases where I didn't have an "IT" gift for at least someone. I've been so focused on the new house project, that I haven't had time to really focus on gifts. We have gifts for everyone, but not an "I can't wait to see their reaction!" gift. I usually have at least one person each year where that applies.

Maybe next year....

my MIL's gift - a My Little Kitchen Fairy that says #1 Mom... she collects them and mentioned it to me once or twice in passing. I think she'll love it. She's very easy to please.

DH - he'll love, love, love one of his (thanks Coopersmom!)

um yeah - that's it - the rest were gifts I bought for kids and they're all ungrateful little snots so no appreciation there. Chat Icon

DD's play kitchen.

For my niece-her first set of "legos" (mega blocks)-my brother was obsessed with these as a kid and I can just see him having so much fun with her (building things that she can bulldoze), plus there are 100 of them and they are a pink and purple princess theme, which makes the image even funnier.

My MIL collects them too! I have never see one that says that - I will have to keep an eye out, her birthday is coming up!

DH is going to freaking LOVE his gifts. I totally went overboard. He has seven things to open up and at least three of them could stand alone as awesome gifts - he is going to be so surprised!

Also, I got my niece an Ed Hardy bag. She is going to be super surprised 1. bc they are expensive and 2. bc she knows that Ed Hardy makes me physically ill - the things we do for love!

My mom's Uggs. She was so excited when she opened them last night! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

My MIL's warm up suit. It is pink and she loves pink. She's been walking and dieting, and has lost 36 lbs so far, and I really hope the new digs will motivate her to keep going.

Re: Name a gift (or a few gifts) that will give you the most joy to GIVE this holiday!!!

We got my parents tickets to see Jersey Boys...with us. My parents just don't go out at all....they never treat themselves and it's such a shame because my mom works like a dog and does not get a chance to reap the rewards. Also, they complain that I've never spent enough time doing things with them. So...they love the Four Seasons, I couldn't even tell you if they've been to a Broadway show since I've been born (I'm 32) and they'll be going with DH and I. I think they're really going to love it and that makes me happy.Chat Icon

I don't think I bought any "wow" gifts this year.

But I'm sure my niece will gush over the clothes I got her. She's such a girly-girl and loves when we buy her clothes.

I hope everyone else likes what we got them. Chat Icon

Re: Name a gift (or a few gifts) that will give you the most joy to GIVE this holiday!!!

i bought vinny a swarovski crystal shamrock -- he collects those crystals and has a bunch of animals because he loves animals so much -- last year, we branched out to fish and got him a starfish and some other sea creatures. i wanted to get him a panda this year that they have which is so pretty but it was too much money so that'll wait -- i saw the shamrock and figured he would love it since Ireland was his favorite country to visit in europe and since i'm Irish... i can't wait to give it!

my sister and i bought my mom a beautiful coat.

i got my brother ISO slippers with a gripped bottom so he doesn't have to put his sneakers on every single time he gets out of bed to do whatever. i just can't wait to give him all his presents from everyone!!! i wrapped them up so nice - i'm excited!!

we got my nephew and dad toby keith tickets - my brother's fave! he can't go this time but maybe next time around -- in the mean time, christopher will be so happy to see him!!!
