Re: XP: let's talk holidays

  • I am so horrible at keeping secrets from H!!! Like, really, really, bad. So this year when I decided to get her a really nice pool stick for leagues, she got it out of me in about a week! We went together and she got to pick it out and uses it all the time! Which is nice, but I'm kinda-of mad at myself for not lasting till Halloween this year! We usually do smaller gifts on Christmas and I'm betting I'll be getting some form of jewelery again, which I have no problem with!!

  • We're in the midst of remodeling our second floor, which includes our bedroom.  So we thought we might do a joint gift from both of us, to both of us, and buy a really nice new bedframe.  Right now we just have an old metal frame (the kind you can't even see) with no headboard or anything.  We're coveting a storage bed that is ridiculously priced in the SkyMall catalog.

  • We don't do gifts for each other but rather decide together on something we want/need and do that.  Last year was the first year we didn't do this and did actual presents for each other.  I like our original plan as I suck at gifts where she remembers every little thing I ever talk about.

    This year it will be things for the boys (completing things we need from our registry).

  • I'm getting her an ipad, and some accessories for christmas, and for her birthday which is on the 30th of December, I'm getting her the latest South African Rugby jersey - the jersey has become a tradition for us, and she loves them.
