But I will say he did awesome on his own... Because we always made our lists together(the kids, him and me)I made a list this year and the kids made their list and we put them in his "cabinet" because JT said Daddy and Jesus would get them to Santa quicker than the mail... The year JT was born he had his sister in law who is a custom jeweler make a mother's ring from his design when I opened the box and put the ring on my finger Heather's stone fell out and I had a TOTAL meltdown.Kim Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09208962463089191846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-68196412551715931252012-12-14T15:08:01.173-05:002012-12-14T15:08:01.173-05:00I will give him a verbal list as Christmas gets cl...I will give him a verbal list as Christmas gets closer, but for the most part, he will listen throughout the year and remember what I have wanted. He is awesome like that!!!! I am the bad gift giver :( He buys whatever he wants whenever he wants it, even in December!!!! So it is hard for me to get stuff that is really good.

Th...I think a wish list is just a suggestion guide. That's why I love my Amazon wish list because it's out there and public and anybody buying me presents can look at it to see what is the current love. My husband knows to look there but he usually doesn't buy off it. He somehow knows what to get me and it's usually really sweet. I'm the one who's awful at buying gifts.Jessica @ Wanting Adventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12259936815744813817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-35207448417022059192012-12-14T10:49:38.081-05:002012-12-14T10:49:38.081-05:00My husband and I started the PINTEREST wish list l...My husband and I started the PINTEREST wish list last year and it's worked like a charm. The only time this doesn't work is if we are shopping locally. In which case we give emails/written lists for items around town that we would like to have :)<br /><br />I am sure I have had holiday meltdowns but my selective memory let's them fade into the past ;)Kelly @ turned UP to ELEVEN!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17316990503032552760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-55617832198643261032012-12-14T10:13:06.420-05:002012-12-14T10:13:06.420-05:00I give mine a list with item name, size, color or ...I give mine a list with item name, size, color or whatever details are needed, as well as store, location in store, or website to order from with the item bookmarked.

When we married 6 years ago we blended 5 kids...OMG. When we married 6 years ago we blended 5 kids in their 20's (plus girlfriends, boyfriends, new in laws...etc) so I was exhausted from putting together this fabulous "Its A Wonderul Life" Christmas from hell and after the last gift was opened I sat there looking at my husband with this stunned looked on my face that said "where in the f is my gift buddy"? I had picked out a watch, told him where it was, the whole nine yards. As it turns out he had it in his office but it was still in the Dillard's sack. Unwrapped. Talk about a meltdown, fortunately I waited until we went out for ice later in the afternoon and then I let him have it!

So for our first Christmas as a married couple he searched the internet found me a pizzelle maker, I was so happy! Nothing will ever top that special gift he found for me. Well, maybe when he asked me to be his wife. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
