Christmas Gifts?

I'm trying to keep it easy this year too. Luckily there's no kids with long lists of everything they want. But my parents pay my tuition so they deserve something and I'm pretty close with my siblings.

But I'm making mostly everything. It's a tradition to give ornaments in our family. Usually it's from my parents to each of us kids. Our tree is decorated in ornaments we've gifted each other. So i went to Michael's and will be making ornaments to give to everyone else.

I'm also giving jars of sand from FL since the boy and I will be leaving to move back home, so ppl can have a peice of wher we lived for 4 years.

A photo albums for my parents.

And a series of 3 paintings for my sister and her fiancee with chinese symbols for what I wish for them in their marraige.

I'm doing pretty good so far but an ornament and some sand aren't enough for my brothers so I have to figure something else out for them that's cool and cheap lol.

But so far the bill for x-mas for 7 people is $80. Pretty damn good i think.
