My daughter told me last night that she doesn't want the cell phone she's been ogling all this time after all! They are coming out with an upgraded one that she thinks she will want more, next year. So, in addition to the several books, make up mirror and frame I already got her, I just ordered a Dooney and Bourke tote from Dillards. She admired it before but I acted aghast at the price. She is going to be SO surprised!!!!!!!! It's much more fun to get someone something like that when they didn't ask for it than to buy the ONE thing that they MUST have or else they'll totally freak out. Way more fun The photo frame I bought her is a black diamond shaped frame that holds 9 different 4 x 6 pics. I printed several of the city scenes she took pictures of in Europe and filled the frame with them. She loves black and white city shots and always wants to buy them when we're at street fairs so I think she'll really like this. I'm wondering how long it will take her to realize that the pics in it are actually pics she took and not the samples that come with the frame..lol. Yep, it will be a fun Christmas and she will be very surprised because she's not expecting several of her gifts but I know she'll love them!

I still have about $50 to spend on her so I think I'll just get her a Border's Gift Card for the rest or put money on her VisaBuxx card.

My Big Sis loves Vera Bradley, and her favorite pattern is Peacock. It's retiring, and she was talking about how she wishes she could get more of it before it goes away. So I'm getting her the Cool Keeper for work.

My Little Sis also loves Vera, so I want to get her a wristlet in her favorite pattern (Java Blue).

I don't love love love Vera (except for the Cafe Latte), but my fam loves it, so I'm happy to buy it for them.

Fiance - Dress shirts and some ankle length socks because I can't stand the long ones that he has.

Mom - A replica of the necklace that my friend's mom made and gave to Sarah Palin...my mom fell in love with it after seeing Palin wearing it on national tv lately and obviously I got a stellar deal from the friend's mom. Also, some fuzzy socks and a shirt from Banana Republic.

Dad - A Borders gift certificate, a Notre Dame t-shirt and sweatshirt, and an "Indiana Dad" keychain.

Grandma - Some fuzzy socks.

Grandpa - An oversized fleece blanket in his favorite color.

My grandma loves crosswords and word-finds, so I'm getting her 3 huge books of them.
