Christmas Shopping...Oh My!

This year I have been trying to be as creative AND frugal with my Christmas presents. I must say I surprised myself with some of the ideas I came up with.

My sister is easy, we always get each other a new pair of PJ's from VS. Sounds simple, and it is, but I actually look forward to new sleep wear every year.

Mom and Dad- These kids are hard. Especially dad. But I got him ( and gave to him already) this really nice painted picture of Texas back in the day framed in all. It was quite expensive so I'm letting that be his early gift this year. I was going to buy my mother and I tickets to go see the Rocket's this year but the dates caused a conflict with our schedules so I'm still working on hers.

Jeff's parents- We made a photobook on mypublisher.com of all the kids and grandkids. I think they both adore this book and love having some portable photos to share.

Nieces and Nephews- For my nephews I found this adorable tee pee at Kirklands that I can only imagine them sitting in and laughing at each other. I'm also grabbing them some cute StarWars cookie cutters from William Sonoma. Jeff's niece is getting a comfy sweater and beanie from gap kids, she's into fashion these days. We got his 1 year old nephew this little hoops set which is perfect coming from basketball fanatic Jeff.

All overs I can't say on here until after given in fear they we see this and the surprise will be ruined. But I assure you they are gifts that keep giving for years to come.

I've only got 3 more gifts to go and them I am DONE! So excited to hopefully be done with Christmas shopping by the end of this week. Such a relief!
