90% done, I just have to get the big gifts and whatever else they decide they "just have to have or perish" at the last minute, lol

I start the week after Christmas and buy all year long until this Christmas. We give each adult child and in-law a large gift bag full of many items. We have two daughters-in-law, three sons. It's been Fall craft show/festival time the past few weeks and I found some great stuff for the football lovers, the cooks and the bakers. All 5 also get pajama bottoms and a t-shirt.
Now my granddaughter? We buy for her nonstop, no limits there!!

I am done. I have to wrap but that's it. It's not that I am on top of it, as much as PFD's came in last week, so I just got all my shopping finished.

Nope. Thankfully, our son is of an age (21) where a nice sized check and new slippers do nicely,lol!

Why not do small gifts and a family vacation?

Ssshhhhhh! We haven't even had Halloween or Thanksgiving yet. I haven't done any shopping yet.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.

I started picking up some small gifts and stocking-stuffers over the summer. We haven't decided what the kids' "big" gifts will be this year yet. Which reminds me, dh and I should probably get on that.

Yes, I'm almost done, but I shop year round. There's just a few more things I need to get, and one thing I need to make.
