Husband:

- 2 Xbox 360 games - Gears of War 4, and Bioshock
- Latest Family Guy dvd set (only way to watch it here)
- An automatic tire pump for the car, he won't need it until he needs it. Not sold here though, had to get mom to send one.

For me:

- LOTR: ROTK complete score
- Some Wii game
- Something else that's wrapped for me, not sure what it is.
- BSG Season 3 OST (the most underrated set of scores for tv or even movies EVAR)

Since my Birthday is so close to Xmas -

- Tenor "Surf" Fluke (ukulele)
- Bamboo Xaphoon in C (crazy instruments FTW!)

From his mother to us:

- A weekend at an island retreat spa around my Bday

For his niece (4 years old) - something fun but educational. We will not be the aunt and uncle who give crap gifts.

Mother of niece - Not sure

Her new boyfriend now that my husband's brother is dead - why do we have to get him something??

For his little brother - probably a cd

For his dad - who knows?

Stepmom - who knows?

His mom - I put her father's audio recordings of stories about the Winter and Continuation War from tape to cd, cleaning up the sound.

My side of the family:

For mom, this gift basket of soaps and stuff that she wanted
Some nice earrings.

Dad - Clemson stuff, a few t-shirts and a hoodie.

I forgot to mention the tattoo for me as well. Funny, since my arm feels like someone punched it for a few hours and then put a road rash on top of it.

You can skimp on the slippers, but not on the tattoo.
