I'm not quite sure what I'm getting my brother yet..

I'm probably gonna end up getting my mom a Barnes and Noble gift card and 1 bottle of wine

for my dad:



and a good amount of movies

In my family on Thanksgiving  we swapped names bag. In the bag are everyones names and what they want for Christmas. I drew a cousins name: he's gonna get a  Barnes and Noble gift card.

We did the name swap thing last year, minus wishes. I drew one of my nephews, and I bought him a $25 movie theater gift card in a fancy movie reel tin can. He liked it very much. I got a gift card es well, for a local store.

Not sure about this year as we haven't done the name swap (yet). I'll probably make a homemade hot chocolate mix with different ingredients layered in jars for everyone.

Hmmmm.  No idea what I'm giving my wife or daughters, to be honest.
So far I have bought for one person on my (rather short) list.
And I can't say what I got her here!

So far I've picked up the board game of Jim Henson's Labrynth (which I ended up giving to Kristi within an hour or two of buying it because I couldn't wait to see her face), A K Wing Bomber for her X Wing fleet and a Munchkin 12 Days of Christmas activity pack (we play a lot of board games). I've also ordered her a bath robe that is done in the style of her character's costume in Warcraft. I've picked up a build your own jet engine for my nephew Adam and a make up set thing for my half sister.

Got so many more things to be buying and add to this.

Anyone make any progress yet?

It's looking to me that I'm going to be doing a lot of my shopping once I'm done with classes because of lack of time, but I'm going to have to mail my dad his stuff soon.

Getting there, got one more present planned to pick up for Kristi. Worked out a list last night and out of the eighteen people I need to get presents for I've gotten 10 sorted.

I don't generally do the gift thing. 

I was tempted to give everyone a copy of The Room Blu-ray but not sure how that'd go over.
