With Thanksgiving officially over it is now time to start hitting that Christmas list and buying gifts for family and loved ones. Gift giving is one of my favorite things, there is nothing better than watching someone’s face light up when they open your present and it is exactly what they want! The one thing that has always made my gift giving experiences exceptionally great is that I really try not to go off of lists, although sometimes you really have no choice but if you take the time to really note throughout the year items that one brings up over casual conversation or passing by a shop you will find that your gifts will be better than anything on a list. There are some many times someone notes something they would love in conversations, such as “wouldn’t it be so great if we had a video camera for moments like this” but when it comes time to think of what they want that is not something they think about. That is why when I sit down to think of what I want to give people I really rack my brain of past conversations and think of items that had been mentioned, if I am really good I will have them written down in my notes but that is not always the case. You truly will find that when they open a present you remembered and thought about the expression on their face will say so much more than thank you I love it, it will also say wow I cannot believe you remembered this and thought about it!
