| We did the photo albums thing last year with it being Izzys first xmas - and I will add to the albums but will need main pressie ideas!
So this year we are doing hampers - the local garden centre has a section where you can buy local products and the actual baskets too so if the prices are good i will get from there |

| We did the hamper thing one year too for the grandparents, they loved it. I really don't know about this year. I make my grandad update his amazon wishlist in dec, so usually get a cd from there. It's so much easier when people have lists! |

| Me and my parents have agreed mutually that we wont be getting each other gifts because each year is the same - asking what each other wants, struggling to think of something and then saying it for the sake of it. |

| Thats true Nutty - its a case of trying to think what to have - I can never think of anything - its not like I have everything, but just cant think lol
Some years I just get my mum vouchers for the garden centre cos she always uses them eventually |

| There is a place called the present finder online and if I can remember where I put the catalogue then I will post a link! but they have some interesting bits and bobs in there!
I am stuck for some pressie ideas atm but have decided just to get the kids lots of bits and bobs rather than a big something! They had bikes last year so thought I would have a change!

| We do a gift hamper...filled up with random stuff they all enjoy. Mom likes her soaps scented candles etc...dad like weird odd gadgets that he would never buy for himself. We just toss in a little bit of everything. Last year..I bought them both those giant couch wizard robes to lounge in..got dad one of those ampli-ear things to improve his hearing...had fun with it, as the theme of the hamper was As seen on TV items. They both loved had a good laugh and do use everything. Always include pics of the kids..grandparents love this! xxx |

| We're the same as Nutty we done it last year too as it was getting to the point of being way too expnsive and just asking people what they want - which they may as well get themselves. WE just get the kids presents now much cheaper |
