So, all my Christmas shopping is done (and has been for about two weeks). But I still haven't made my christmas list for the family. I have no idea what I want.

 

I will say, though, that the presents I'm giving this year are possibly the coolest ones I've ever given. So, I'm very excited about that. Is that part of being an adult? More excited to see people open the gifts you give than to open your own?

This year is so much more exciting for me with it being Madison's first year of "getting" Christmas. I am having so much fun trying to find stuff for her, all though I still really like to get stuff too :0)

So this year, thanks to my guy, I finally can co-opt having a niece and nephew to buy presents for.

 

For my guy's niece: I'm totally getting Lego... cause as far as she's concerned I might as well be called Zack Zach, Lego Maniac. (Whenever she sees me, she actually goes and pulls out all her legos.)

 

For my guy's nephew: He'll only be four months - so I'm getting him a savings bond for college, to be used as a bookmark in "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Friederich Neitzsche. Because what baby's room is complete without a copy of Neitzsche??

I hear ya Soxy!

 

I think I found the edition of a cookbook my mom has been looking to get again (she loaned it and never got it back). For Brian, I have one last thing and he keeps hinting at it anyway so I know he will love it. I think I picked out some good stuff for my brother, sister and nephew. Here's hoping!

I've always liked giving gifts almost as much as getting them. Especially since my family has a "tradition" of wrapping one present 10 times (and in several boxes) with an entire roll of scotch tape so it literally takes 10 minutes to unwrap it.

 

Most of the time you can't see the floor after we're done unwrapping.

If she's like most kids, she'll be more interested in the boxes than the toys themselves.

I planned on getting my sister a new computer but my dad took care of that one. I usually wait until after Thanksgiving when I get back from the annual hunting trip to start thinking about gifts.

My wishlist is going to include: a Bmac/Anderson jersey, a Phillip Rivers powder blue jersey and money. I have no clue what I'm getting anyone else yet, I'll buy those gifts in late December some time.

wow, there is really nothing I want this year.

 

My mom's gonna be pissed.

XBOX360 is on my wish list. That and passing the FAR section of the CPA exam.

 

As far as what i'm going to get, I bought my mom a bigass TV to say thanks for letting me stay at her house for free and I have no idea what I'm going to get other people but as I get older I absolutely love getting people cool gifts.

I'm probably gonna end up gettin a U.K Passport. My Dad was born in Manchester, so I'm eligible to get one, which will be extremely handy if I ever work or travel in thr U.K or Europe for that matter.

Im right in the same boat. Last year I got a Spring Training Trip, which was awesome, but now this year it's sort of just a given that were going again, so it's not really a gift.

 

I could go the 360 route, but Im really pretty happy with my old X-Box right now.

I really have no ideas, and the questions for the 'rents have already started.

Right now my list consists of 1 pewter bangle bracelet and a $25 sewing class.

i'll just go for books/music/clothes...

 

gonna give books/music/clothes

My list is mostly DVD box sets of old sitcoms. Maybe a couple of PS2 games and a couple of Stephen King books.

 

My parents are extremely difficult to buy for. They pretty much have everything they need and don't really have any hobbies. I might get the new Microsoft Flight Simulator for my dad. My mom will probably end up with another sweater.

oh movies too good call! I would like to see a list of dvd's out in december.
