We usually get the kid...We try to strike a balance. We usually get the kids one present and their stocking, mostly candy. I figure they get a lot of gifts from everyone else so one is enough. Also, we find an angel tree of some sort each year and we each donate a gift to whomever we pick from the tree. It's fun to see the giving and receiving in Christmas. We have also bought 2nd hand gifts and home made gifts. This year I found a canucks jersey second hand for Ky and a cute Calgary flames shirt for El for $2! Ken is getting a pooh bear robe and slippers that we bought from a friend who's daughter outgrew it. It's fun searching that way. Still looking for E's gift.Greg and Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652755545561361397noreply@blogger.com
