25 Days of Christmas--Day Eighteen
Here we are at Day 18 of the 25 Days of Giveaways, hosted by Jill Savage! I have to admit, I wasn't sure I'd be able to keep up with the posts (and I have missed a couple of days and made them up late), but it's been fun reflecting on the season so far. I do hope to put up a "regular" post one of these days--the girls have been up to all kinds of craziness and cuteness--but for now, here's Day 18:
Who does the Christmas shopping in your family?
I do! I keep Mr. B informed as I go, and I ask for his input on pretty much everything (even though he usually has little to no input to offer). I really hate going out into the crowds, so I try to shop online as much as possible. As I alluded to in this post, I even buy several small gifts for Mr. B to have the girls give me for Christmas. It sounds a little rotten or selfish, but it really makes life easier for everyone--it spares us time, money, and stress!
Does anyone else out there shop for themselves? Who does the Christmas shopping in your families??

Well, as I understand it, your father bought that black stereo in his kitchen for his girls to give to him on Christmas! I don't know if that's true but that's what I heard.
ReplyDelete:) This might be the first year I HAVEN'T bought something for me, wrapped it and put it under the tree... :) and I do ALL the shopping because I learned early on that my husband just wants to look at things he thinks are cool toys - like remote controlled dinosaurs, rather than princess and doll toys.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever actually purchased something for myself, but several years (since we've been married) now, I've pretty much figured out everything Jeff was giving me. He's a little obvious, I guess. But this year, I actually have no clue! :)
ReplyDeleteHowever- I DID buy a few things for Jeff and me that I wrapped and wrote "from Santa" (lol)... 2 things we need and one thing I thought would be fun for us to have. :)
