Christmas Presents

[arbnranger]

Let's talk about what you are getting your friends or loved ones. 

I know most Huddlers have great ideas and are equally full of bull $hit. 

This isn't meant to be a big Johnny contest just keeping with the holiday spirit and sharing some ideas that maybe some of us will steal. 

I'll start with a couple of Panthers gifts I'm giving  -

Wife- A Luke sweatshirt she will love me for. 

My daughters bf- a Carolina hoody. His family is from the UK but his dad is a Cowboy fan. For the past 5 weeks I've made him come over and watch the Panthers with me. I think the hoody will fully convert him. 

Let's see what good ideas you have. (Doesn't have to be Panthers related)

I bought my wife a 9mm Beretta for xmas.

She'll probably kill me but whatever. I also bought her a bunch of crap she wanted (shoes, boots, sweaters) and then I don't know if she will take it the wrong way but I bought her a facial scrub from Nordstroms which was over $100. Not that i'm implying anything but I think she would like that right? Bought her a crock pot and don't know what else though. I was hoping to buy her some Sam Hunt or Tim McGraw tour tickets but they don't come near where I live.

Sounds like to me you did a dam fine job! Women... well, men also can be really picky when it comes to shoes, boots etc. it's all about getting the Intel on what they like before you go get it. How did you choose? 

My wife has a Pinterest so it's her way of picking out things she likes without directly telling me haha

I think the face scrub was a great call. Women always seem to love stuff like that.

My wife and I make a list of 10-15 things we want for Christmas and she and I randomly buy things off that list. Kinda like a children's santa list but for kids. Atleast we know it is something we both want. 

I actually only asked for one thing and it's for the Steph Curry Carolina Blue shoes.

Are you getting anything else for your wife and daughter? What about yourself? Truth be told, I bought the handgun for myself lol but gifting to her.

Very nice. Sounds like you have some projects for him. He will be ready. Haha

[Mrs Pantherfan]

ha...sort of...we just moved into a house and we have a nice big 2 car garage..so now we have room to put all of this stuff....He's mentioned it in passing ...but he's never said he wants any of this for Christmas...he'll be very surprised..I can't wait... :) 

 

Oh and I'm also getting my puppy dog Izzy a nice new soccer ball and my 3-legged puppy dog...he'll get whatever he wants...b/c he's awesome and he only has 3 legs :)

 

 

Oh...also...if anyone is interested in an extremely ornery 16 year old cat named Big Fat Gina...He (yes, he) Loves to lay around and sleep, hunt baby rabbits and bring them to you..poo and piss in a littlerbox about every 10 minutes..will bark at you until you feed him BUT will snuggle whilst watching TV...Just let me know...I know just where to find one

Good idea on making the list. It's still a surprise and you get what you wanted. Most times I just imagine everything is going to be socks and if it's something different I'm real happy. I can tell I'm getting old because the past few years I actually wanted socks. 

My son is coming home for leave from his AIT. (Army) I got him a gps watch/HR monitor. 

Nice call on getting the Glock for your "wife". I may have to take that idea.

Did BFG have anything to do with why the puppy dog has 3 legs? Ha I kid. 

[Mrs Pantherfan]

Ha...no...his first owners were horrible people and didn't take him to the vet for a month when he was hit by a car...now he's mine and spoiled rotten

We don't have kids, and we're big animal rescue advocates, so we buy truckloads of supplies for the local rescues.

She has to buy stuff for her shitty nephews, who are too cool to hang out or acknowledge their aunt, but sure want that swag come holiday time. And her parents and brother. We don't buy anything for each other, opting for the winter Caribbean vacation and the summer "explore the USA" vacations. 

We have plans to reno the kitchen and master bath in 2016, so the vacations may have to take a brief hiatus following our trip in January.
