Several of my in-laws have given what I have learned are 'annual' gifts. The first 2 years I was was like "what is this supposed to be", only because I went through great pain to pick nice gifts since I was new to the family. Then as the years have gone by, I have come to look for these things to 'complete' my holiday. Now, I don't go through great pain to pick the perfect gift and give something simple.
Aunt In Law #1: A crocheted Christmas ornament
Aunt In Law #2: English muffin/crumpet breakfast set complete with jellies and tea
Family Friend of AIL #2: Annual Christmas letter detailing the events of the year (always posistive) and now includes gift cards for my kids to Target.
This year...I made scrapbooks for everybody. Time consuming, yet well loved (I hope) by all 3 ladies.
