Mom & Dad gift ideas

Help... need some gift ideas for mom and dad on both sides!!!

Actually, FIL is getting Caterpillar coat & shirt/hat. But everyone else... no ideas!!!

We've done the dinner gift cards thing for my parents. They do enjoy it, but the last few years have been gift cards. There is potential to go in with the siblings for gifts. And I can't wait much longer for my parents, as they live out of state and I need to mail something!

We had family photos taken of my immediate family last weekend. Originally SIL, Brother, me and DH were going to pay for the pictures, but Mom did all the research and it didn't quite work out in the moment. So back to square one with them.

(Every year it's a last minute rush thing!)

Re: Mom & Dad gift ideas

  • My mom is incredibly difficult to shop for.  This year I bought her the Hamilton Beach Stay & Go crock pot and ordered a photo book of wedding pix for her.  I bought my dad this cool Mizzou LED light thing for his man cave.  I bought them a giftcard to go to dinner for the anniversary in September, which I still don't think they've used.

  • How about one of those digital picture frames. Does your FIL or Dad like any sports? You can either get them tickets to a game, or merchandise from their favorite team? As for MIL or Mom, perfume, kitchen stuff (although you may have to ask!), wine (if they drink)... umm let me know of some more.
