Where did Christmas ornaments come from?
This morning I found my six year old daughter standing in front of the Christmas tree in awe. Since I never put the gifts out early, and there is literally nothing under the tree, I was curious as to what had caught her attention. She stood there motionless for what seemed like a very long time, and then ever so gently, she reached out and touched a sparkling ornament that was hanging eye level to her. While it is a general rule in our house that once the tree is up and decorated, nobody is...

Read MoreThe True Meaning of Christmas
With just a few short days left until Christmas morning, many of us have found ourselves asking “what is the true meaning of Christmas?” It is kind of shocking how much the answer to that question might change depending upon the perspective of who we ask. My holiday shopping budget is very small this year and with seven children, shopping for gifts has been a real struggle. Since I can only afford to give one gift to each of my kids this holiday season, I have decided to make sure...

I always loved Christmas time around the office. From the festively decorated desks and windows to the abundance of mouthwatering holiday treats that magically appeared in the break room, there was something to remind me of the upcoming holiday in every room. I remember the very first year that I worked at one office in particular. I couldn’t believe the excitement that seemed to fill the air as Christmas time drew near. Even the grouchiest of employees seemed to have been touched by the...
Read MoreUnique Personalized Christmas Gifts for Girls
Going through some keepsake items I have saved back from when the kids were little and some of my girls Christmas gifts from their early childhood, I came across a couple of books. I used to absolutely love to read to my daughters when they were little, and I did so starting just weeks after they were born, so it’s no wonder that these well worn books that I came across the other day brought back so many wonderful memories. As I opened the cover of one of the storybooks, visions of my...
Read MoreA Different Take on Executive Christmas Gifts
When it comes to executive Christmas gifts shopping for just the right item can be a challenge. While many people choose to purchase less personal types of items for the female executives in their lives, like generic coffee mugs and desk accessories, doing so isn’t always the best idea. I mean let’s face it, a person can only have so many paper weights, and while a number of desk accessories and coffee mugs are useful items, they often just don’t let the recipient know how...

Read MoreSmokin’ Hot Christmas Gifts for Men
I remember when I was a kid. My dad used to smoke the occasional cigar. There was nothing like the wonderful sweet aroma that seemed to fill every nook and cranny of our home after Dad had been smoking his cigar. Although he didn’t smoke cigars all of the time, a person could tell that he truly loved to come home from work and relax with a high quality cigar. As I’ve grown older, that enticing scent of a premium cigar brings back such warm memories of a time long ago; memories that...

I have seen some pretty off the wall Christmas gifts in my time. My family has a tradition of giving gag gifts and uncommon items to one another; especially when it comes to Christmas gifts for teens, and let me tell you- when you get a bunch of us together to exchange gifts at Christmastime, you had better be prepared to laugh; and sometimes hope that you are not on the receiving end. It all started back when I was a teenager. I had been getting a little bit big for my britches if you know...
Read MoreBatteries Not Allowed: Traditional Christmas Gifts for Kids
It seems like I have had somebody’s kids around me nearly all of my life. Even before I had kids, I had kids I think. One of the best parts about buying Christmas gifts for kids that didn’t belong to me was that I could buy the noisiest, most irritating gifts- preferably with at least 100 small pieces included and batteries that never wore out, and I could send them home with the parents. I remember laughing until I cried as parents would call me and beg me not to ever do that...

As the mother of seven kids, four of which are boys, you wouldn’t think I would be intimidated by much, but for me, shopping for the boys Christmas gifts is just plain scary.Maybe it has something to do with the nightmare I had about being in the boys’ toy...
