What did you get your mom and MIL for Xmas?

I always get stuck when it comes to our moms. I often get them something framed of the boys. Coming up blank this year. MIL is 65 and my mom is 69. Both picky and very hard to shop for.

Re: What did you get your mom and MIL for Xmas?

I always give my mom $ because she needs it

MIL - she collects Lenox ornaments, so I'll usually get her one of those and maybe a dressy shirt and GC for nail salon or facial and/or GC for her and FIL to go to nice dinner.

This year, we did combo gift for mil & FIL of $100 Netflix GC and device to use Netflix on. Put it in a box with a cozy blanket and some popcorn for movie nights.
Also got them "ninja bread man" cookie cutters from the dogs. . FIL is judo BB and know they'd find them really cute.

My MIL...I always get her photo gifts. I've done a photo blanket, which she LOVED. I did the kids on a large canvas last year. This year I did a metal print, and a photo book with a year of pictures. She enjoys this kind of stuff because she lives in another state. I also get her a few other things that she likes...tea related, etc.

My mom always has a list! lol. We got her a fit bit that monitors heart rate (I think she asked for it since she has heart problems). I also had a large canvas made of her and the grandkids from when she came to visit (she lives out of state also).

Re: What did you get your mom and MIL for Xmas?

ha..our moms are the same. My mom hates shopping, anything beauty related for herself (manis, pedis, massages); doesnt like clothing now b/c she gained some weight. cant eat much food. so basically she's miserable.

my MIL isnt much better.

So I got them tickets to a show together..b/c they are close enough where they would do that, to MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL. its out near me in PA so they will have to come here. but I couldnt think of anything else and at least they will get out together and do something.

Mil is 67 and my mom is 59. Both done with menopause Chat Icon
