What did you get your hubby?? - Page 2

Lissa · 12-22-2007, 09:07 AM

Guys are always so hard to get things for!!! Last year I knew what I wanted to get him ahead of time, but I didn't figure out what to get him til last week. I got him a new wallet and the Band of Brothers series on DVD, the second one's loaded though, I wanted it for myself and since his stuff and my stuff will become our stuff in June, I figured it wouldn't hurt =P, plus he loves WW2 stuff.

I'm excited though, I actually get to use a good reliable oven to bake a cheesecake for Christmas!!! The last ones I had to use were either propane fueled or 40 years old.

We're going to spend today cleaning and organizing the house. I have people coming tomorrow for one of my boy puppies in the morning, and we go to my brothers in the evening for our family Christmas party.

I have everything wrapped, never did get Christmas cards done... First time EVER that I didn't do those! No real excuse since I have cards, stamps, and so on hand... I just couldn't get myself to do it!

I'm so glad dh is home and willing to help with the heavier stuff. I do plan to kick the boys in the rear and get them to help too since much of the mess is theirs.

Hi Melissa!!! You are doing better than me...I didn't even know you 'baked' a cheesecake. Ha Ha Ha

I always bought the kind that comes in a box, I just mix it up and put it in the fridge...

Is the WW2 stuff the wrestling? My son loves that too.

<waving hi to Melissa> Ltns .. glad to see you back...

To be honest this year, don't laugh my husband doesn't want any more clothes. He is not into gadgets. Soo I just brought him underwear and socks lol he needs socks desperatly. Thats it!! I told him I really didn't want anything either...My hubby will put something under the tree for me..

Sheryl it sounds like your going to have a romantic Christmas just the two of you <wink > crack open the wine and light the fire girlfriend..lol

I just got mine mailed today. I figure that even if they get them late that's alright!! Better late than never! Go ahead and fill them out and send them after Christmas. I've done that too!! Or just save them until next year!!!

I guess that's one good thing about not having a husband--don't have to worry about what to buy him.

Lindsey · 12-24-2007, 10:58 AM

I love the Goonies!!!!!!!! I haven't seen that movie in years!
Kyle and I exchanged our presents on Thursday night because I was coming home for Christmas with my parents.
Kyle wasn't too hard to buy for... Our football team won the Grey Cup (Canada's superbowl) this year, and he had been wanting a zip-up hoody, so I got him one with the team name and stuff on it, and he has worn it every day since! I also gave him a little certificate I made on my computer that said "This certificate is redeemable for $100 from the Bank of Lindsey to be used towards getting a tattoo at the location and from the artist of your choice." He has this tiny little tattoo on his arm (that his friends make fun of!) that he got when he was 18 from a crappy little tattoo shop in Winnipeg that ripped him off pretty bad. He has wanted another one for so long but he just hasn't done it. I thought of going to a place and getting a certificate but I thought I'll let him pick the place by himself. I also put a little note that it must be redeemed by March 30, 2008, because if he doesn't get it by then, he won't get one! He spends his whole summer wakeboarding and he'd wreck a new tattoo in the lake!
I LOVED what he got me. I've got a tiny little obsession with Victoria Beckham and he got me her book and I've read the whole thing already. He also got me a gift certificate from this little music place near my house for 10 guitar lessons! I've had my guitar for about 5 years but I can barely play it and I don't have the money to take lessons. I'm so excited to start!

That's a very nice gift Lindsey!

AngieDoogles · 12-26-2007, 09:19 AM

Brendon really loved his gifts! I hope everyone else's hubby did as well!

Tink · 12-26-2007, 09:50 AM

Greg was very pleased with his gifts. He said the inverter was exactly the right size and type thank goodness. The faux security cameras just cracked him up. He got them mounted right away. So this year I did good!
