DH informed me yesterday that he's getting me something for Christmas - mind you we haven't exchanged gifts in over 4 years. I'd like to get him something, but I just have no idea what.

What are you getting your DH's???

    I got him a few things- a UCLA basketball shirt b/c we're both kind of obsessed with Bruins basketball, an ornament I had made on Etsy out of clay that has our little family and says our name and the year on it, a book for fun outdoor projects for dads to do with kids (I know he won't use it for a while, but he'll get a kick out of it.)  

    I also got Raylan a few things DH will like, like his first xmas ornament with his picture on it and a funny bib DH saw when I was pregnant.

    My DH has everything since he buys it as he wants it (or saves up for it).  I was able to get him a multifunctional tool to add to his garage.  I'm doing the 12 Days of Christmas instead.  https://themistylife.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-12-days-of-christmas.html  Basically, starting today, you give 1 gift per day that includes the number of items or something related to the day - like the song.  Example:  On the 5th day of Christmas my True Love gave to me, 5 white t-shirts...ect.  Some items are just pieces of candy, other are gifts.  Everything total cost me about $30.  I might make it a new tradition :)

     I also got a book for DH to read to Emma.
