When thinking of gifts that stood out, my mind went to getting a Northface coat in the early 2000s 😆 all the rich girls had one. My parents, aunt, and grandmother pulled in to get me one of the marked down colorways. I felt so cool when I saw it.

One year when I was little I got a pair of new leather boots and I got two right boots and it was the funniest thing ever! I remember no other gifts 👢👢

Of all the gifts I ever got I only remember accidentally getting two gameboys from diff family members. I remember the incredible joy of the family parties!

Aw so true! Our fam tradition was cutting out sugar cookie dough (pillsbury) and decorating them, plus cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning (and yes music!) My first cell phone was the best gift I ever received - jumped up and down (in high school). 📱 As a kid, my fave was a kaboodle tackle box loaded with kid jewelry. 💎

We started giving EXPERIENCES instead of gifts. Then asked family if they felt inclined to gift them something to wait until we went on our vacation and send them a little spending money. Christmas 2025 we “gifted” them Puerto Rico and went during their spring break 2026. They haven’t stopped talking about it! They’re ready to go back. They’re wondering what the destination surprise will be this year! ♥️

I’m still bitter I never got a My Size Barbie. I asked for it for 2 years for every single gift giving occasion and wrote Santa and told my parents it was the only thing I wanted, and I remember meaning it. Stopped believing in Santa when the next Christmas rolled around and I still didn’t get it. Made the few traditions kind of bitter memories and I hate that but I can’t help it. It wasn’t that expensive either

I’d argue that the LESS new you stuff you buy year to year, the more special it is!! Using the same ornaments, same decorations, even the same wrapping paper makes the season so special.

Yep this is true. I’ve commented about this on one of your prior videos! This year each kid will get one or two things they’ve wanted all year, and with the money saved we’re going to get to fly across the country to spend time with grandma and grandpa. Guess which one they’re more excited about and non stop talking about? 🤭❤️

The traditions my boys look forward to the most are actually the simplest things! We always watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade and make a huge deal at the end when Santa comes because that's the official start of Christmas! The tree goes up the next day and that's when they're allowed to start making paper snowflakes and Christmas crafts. They seriously count down the days until they're allowed to start making snowflakes! They love to put them up all over the house ❄️

This! We went to a live nativity scene every year, tons of easy, festive baking, looking at Christmas lights, decorating the tree, Making gingerbread houses. This is what my adult kids talk about not the presents.

I remember my parents putting things on lay away at Walmart, but I don’t remember any of the things. Just the stress that came with having to pay for gifts 😅

My great grandmother made a Christmas cookie recipe that she made with my grandma. My grandma made it with my mom. My mom made it with us, and now I make it with my children every year. They’re the most delicious, and I let the kids have fun cutting them out and decorating them. My grandma passed about 14 years ago. I was very close with her, so I also always wear one of her aprons and use some of her cookie cutters makes me feel close to her again. 💗

So true. Every year my mom would get these special chocolates for me and my brothers. Such a small thing but we look forward to them every year. We still do and I’m 31 now.

In the 90’s, I wanted this beautiful brown leather “Perlina” bag I had seen at Nordstrom. Christmas morning, there was the silver Nordstrom box under the tree🎁 My mom had bought it for me! I was so excited to get it- did not think I would because it was exoensive back then. I don’t have that bag anymore, but I have that memory and the feeling I got from it! 🎄❤️Oh, and I also remember when I got the Barbie Dreamhouse and the ET pillow!!😜
