Re: What are you getting H & MIL?

  • MIL just redid her kitchen so we got them some dishrags, spatulas & things and wrapped it up with a BB&Beyond gift card so she could pick some things. Technically that's for FIL too.

    For H we're just doing stockings and I'm almost done. I got him:

    - Fudge covered angry bird oreos from Etsy

    - An Urban Meyer/Ohio State tshirt (he just signed as their coach)

    - A Snow Day tshirt (his fave beer - purchased before the other shirt, so now he gets two, but this one is long sleeve)

    - Stuff from World Market - whoever suggested that is awesome - I got jerky, peppers...can't remember what else. BBQ sauce & salsa perhaps.

    - All I need now is so nice pens or something for his desk.

  • For H - we went to LL Bean/Freeport, ME over the weekend and we bought ourselves some things, so those were our gifts. He got some hunting gear and such.

    MIL - no idea, actually.She asked for gift cards to small privately owned businesses. She wants to support local business owners this season so I'm not sure what we'll end up getting her yet.

  • MIL- I started her a Riedel wine glass collection 2 years ago. I buy her 2 a year. I think next year she will have all that she wants. Ill give her a nice bottle or two of wine. I may get her this wine save thing I saw in the BB&B cataloug yesterday.

    H- I got him the autographed hockey jersey and I'd like to get it framed. I'm hoping I have time for that though. I bought him a watch box to keep all of his watches in. I  want to get him these flags http://www.willabeeandward.com/flags/prod/E62/Baltimore-Ravens-Flag-Collection_2006-0125.aspx?cm_sp=E4-_-products-_-Baltimore_Ravens_Flag_Collection each monthis a diferent Ravens theme. One of the bars we go to have them and he comments on them every time. Its a year long subscription so other then some stocking stuffers his is done!

  • MIL said not to spend much.  I bought a big collage frame that holds 8- 4x6 pictures.  We got a bunch of professional pictures so I'm putting some of those in there for both grandmas.

    H is getting an Under Armour Cold Gear shirt. He wants a leatherman, but there are so many choices he needs to figure out what tools he wants it to have.  I'll get him little personal hygiene items to take to work (mouthwash, hand sanitizer, floss).  Other ideas are a large duffel bag to carry his work stuff, an external hard drive, and a magazine subscription. 

  • Bucks - I google shopping-ed Urban Meyer Ohio State and found this one on Ebay. I bet there will be tons that pop up, but I wanted to get something quick and be done. I think he'll like it.

    I now see this one and this one too.

  • I got DH some super random stuff that he will love

    ibottleopener (a case for his iphone that has a bottle opener on it)

    a little toilet plunger phone thing that is a stand

    a Bazinga shirt

    bengals pj bottoms

    Steve Jobs book that came out recently

    Goodnight iPad (HILARIOUS book for nerdy dads) goodnight ipad, goodnight fb friends. That will be from Aud.

    He bought himself a PS3 so there is that as well.

    MIL... I have no clue

  • seriously I'm in no freaking mood to think about MIL right now...normally we draw names but apparently this year we HAVE to get her something.  So I'm not getting BIL anything...we have a freaking kid coming and it seems that all we're supposed to be doing is taking care of her when she's doing find trust me.

    So I will give her our digital frame she gave us that I never used (I will tell her though haha) and probably do some slippers or a frame with Ava.

    H wants to go to the National Championship so he didn't get much for his bday in October hoping we'd go and then of course now for Xmas.  That will be huge

    So I got him a speaker thingy for his iphone to listen to his music since streaming at work is off now, a new toiletries travel case from Lands End since he travels so much, and then I'll get him stocking stuffers of different jerkeys (we have a beef jerkey outlet by our house with ostrich, alligator etc), some LSU caramel popcorn, and I'll find other little stuff

  • I got H a bunch of random stuff that I know he'll love, including a Chuck Norris t-shirt.

    MIL--a few MacKenzie Childs ornaments and coupons for free car washes from a place near her that everyone goes to.

    I found this cute thing that I got for my mom and sisters...it's called something like "Box of Christmas Questions."  I found it on amazon.  It's basically a box of cards that has questions to stimulate discussion and these are all Christmas questions...like your favorite memory, favorite ornament, etc.  My mom is so nostalgic and I know she'll love to ask us the questions and hear our answers.
