Gemma (his sis) - Spiral ceramic bowl. Various art/craft glass beads

His mum - Carved soapstone jewellery box (with lotus flower shape mother of pearl inlay)

Mum - Expensive organic hair conditioner (she's had trouble finding something that isn't heavy on her fine hair and that will build it up) and goats milk soap

Grandma - Tea/jam/shortbread hamper


Not too much money to spend this xmas, but everyone else is the same so they understand.

Since we are in the home building process this winter, we had to cut our Xmas present budget.

Rob - $100 gift card to Sears, and I got a $5 reward card with it so I stuck it in the card also.

Mom - $25 to Longhorn (she eats lunches there often because she works down the street)

Dad - $25 to Red Lobster (loves going there and hasn't been in awhile)

Brother - $20 to Burger King (he would eat it everyday if he could...)

Rob's Mom and Dad - $50 to Applebees ($25/each)

Rob's Brother - $20 to Papa Johns

(You can see we utilized Wal*Marts gift card kiosk thingy...)

I know that Rob bought me a Slanket (www.theslanket.com) because he accidentally opened his email while I was on his lap, and his order confirmation was there. I'm ALWAYS cold and LOVE to be snugged up in a blanket, so it's perfect

Dunno what color it is though, and I wont get it until after Xmas because they are backordered. I know he got me something else too, but he hasn't given any hints.

Ya!!! I'm finished with my shopping!!!!

I stopped by the store on the way home from work and got the last of my shopping done.

I wound up getting my best friend several different lotions (what she wanted), a yummy honey body scrub, a soft pillow to lay one while she's studying /reading, a drink warmer for her coffee cups, some delish scented soaps, and some raspberry chocolate treats and some coconut almond candies

I also got a few stocking stuffer's for my mom while i was out. I'm officially done with my shopping for the year

Ya!!! Now i just have to wrap everything

I always say I'm going to cut back. But then I always over do. And with my granddaughter and it being her first Xmas and my first grandchild. I don't dare say! Way too much as usuall..
