I can say one of the special ones is a silver heart necklace from my daughter. It has my 3 grandsons names engraved on it..
As for the gifts from my DH. He does wonderful. He listens to me talk to my friends about things and then he goes searching lol..

My best gift and every years request is lots of Bubble bath! I am a bubble bath fanatic! It was my getaway when the kids were little and I love to read and soak!

just hanging out with family - I don't get gifts anymore (at my request) and it's very liberating and relaxing.

You know my husband and i quit exchanging years ago and love it...at our ages you just buy what you want when you want it..we give lots to our children and grand children and they buy us gifts but we cut back on what they can give us so it works out fine

I still get gifts from my hubbie and and exchange gifts with my sister and her family. Growing up Christmas was such a big deal - my parents and grandparents went all out! I have to have some gifts under the tree - I'm just shallow like that!

We don't exchange gifts any more with hubby's family - we make charitable donations in their names and most of them ignore us. ;)

My favourite gift this year is a Canon Powershot camera - small enough to fit in my pocket or purse. I just love it.
