This year I didn't really want or need anything. My parents and I just did stockings and by stockings I mean each of us had one of those really big stockings. My favorite things I received were 2 new charms for my Moon & Stars themed Pandora bracelet. My mom got me a charm that is dangly and it says I love you to the moon and back which is our saying between each other for as far back as I can remember (though she had no clue it had that inscribed on the back of the charm). I told her and she was so excited because she had no clue. It's really the little things in life that make me the happiest. I also loved my Jansport back pack with Anchors on it! I also love Tinker Bell and received a beautiful Disney Hallmark Tinker Bell figurine and she is so beautiful.
Most of the time I would rather give to receive. I made my mom this simple easel calendar when Shutterfly had it for free (only paid $6 shipping) and it was her favorite gift. I always make her a calendar for the following year at Christmas when Shutterfly runs them for free. My dad loved the Nicholas Sparks book I got him! We love to read and he's our favorite author!
