| Is anyone else going through the "Ahhh it's all ready December feeling?!?!" I sure am! Thankfully I have everyone checked off my Christmas list except the bf. Too many ideas. He's a hard working ranch guy, who works out on his free time and loves music. I have already given him a custom bronc halter, heated mattress pad, and a custom bull riding wall sign. So far I have came up with the ideas of new(good quality) headphones, one of the arm bands for working out that your phone/ipod can fit in, or cozy slippers/moccasins. I was also thinking another good tool set. Any other ideas?! Any good brands that your S.O. enjoys. |

      Location: Midwest Farmer's Daughter: Central Illinois | I only buy for SO - my parents look at it like I have debt & I shouldn't be buying them presents if I owe my credit card company money. Which is perfectly okay, but I still get SO something.
I won't post what I got him, since he's sneaky & just might get on here & see if I said anything - probably not but won't risk it - but I bought his present a month ago when I saw it. I just had to. |

     Location: In Ky following Barrel Races & Walker hounds. | Mine got a laptop, Dragon Software(you speak and it types it), some DVDs to series' he likes, couple movies he wanted, and some Spanish software(he wants to learn Spanish so he can try to go further in his job, ADM does a lot of foreign sales, so any languages he can learn will help). And he got a printer. Not sure if I am done yet or not... Bless his heart he works his BUTT off... He definitely deserves to get spoiled... |

          Location: Blissfully happy Giants fan!!! | My hubby is always so easy. He always needs new jeans and new shirts so those are always tee'd up. He bought a brand new car this year so I always get car cleaners things and what not. Last year I got him one of those high end big tool chest things and he loves it.
This year he was easy as he had mentioned a few things he wanted:
A new belt Nintendo 3DS High end/quality shaver
I also bought him/us a brand new Keurig and then the keurig pod holder thing.
I just wrapped a ton of gifts and now can't remember what else I bought him.
For stocking stuffers I will get him snacks for work that he wouldn't normally try or eat and gift cards for him to buy music and computer games and what not.
My hubby has never been hard to shop for. And for that I am really thankful. |

          Location: DUMPING CATS AND PIGS IN TEXAS :) | My boyfriend's ex wife took the things that he treasured most lol.......he mention's at least once a week that she took his gumbo pot......he laments about it........she called him to go jump her car when the battery died on her at work......I told him to tell her no problem, I will come jump your car, but I need my gumbo pot back first........he's too nice and didn't bargin with her......so, I constantly have to hear about that **** pot.........well, guess what??? He is getting the biggest, baddest gumbo pot I can find, just so I don't have to hear that crap any more. She, also, took the top tier of a 3 tier fountain that is in his yard. I have to hear about that too.....so, I have have to find one of those or go steal the one she took from him back......I hear it's just on the floor in her garage now......I could probably pull it off.
And, other than that, he's getting cologne, because the crap he bought for himself smells like my grandpa after jumping in a bottle of Old Spice. It's very strong and stinky.
And, I will probably buy him some new panties. All of his look like my grandpa's old dirty drawers.......I guess he's going to wear them until they fall off of him or I go get him some.....
oh, and what he really, really wants is a fancy table saw......after nearly cutting three of his fingers off on a table saw earlier this year and basically, just having 7 functional fingers now.........I probably am not going to get that for him.

You operate like I do. I told my hubby I want an air impact wrench for my semi so I can change tires while on the road and run it off the truck. Hubby's like.....ya cool I can do that. My BFF's are like....OMG you are one strange chick. |

Hahaha! Is that a guy thing? My bf is the exact same. I brought it up and he said they were fine.....so instead of nagging, I just went and bought him new ones! 
For Christmas I'm getting him some new jeans, a couple shirts, a cover for his quad, and a hunting knife. |

Go buy him Armani Aqua Di Gio....it smells amazing on everyone. My husband has worn it for as long as I've known him and I love it so much I wear it myself sometimes, just to smell him :-) http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/giorgio-armani-acqua-di-gio-homme-gift-set?ID=1077184&CategoryID=30076 |

   Location: MI | I got my hubby visors for his truck windows. He's wanted them for years. Well, he got the email for the Amazon order that had them listed at the top, and then he got home first the day they were delivered - in the original box. So happy early Christmas for him!
He also wants some tall Carhartt coveralls, and would love some fender things for his truck, but I really don't want to spend the $4-500 for the ones he really wants. |

I have learned, as long as your gift is thoughtful and useful it will be appreciated... they love you enough to date you... he probably isn't dating you for your gifts you give him. |

If you haven't already gotten the otterbox, buy one from Amazon! They're so much cheaper! |

 Am I really the Weirdo?

       Location: Kansas | Mine is easy to shop for because he has horses and barrel races. I actually have more ideas than what my price range will allow, and am pretty sure I'm going to order a photo collage of his pictures from a rodeo finals earlier this year. My family members are buying him some things too and so I've been sharing my smaller ideas (DVD's of TV shows he likes, random horse stuff he can always use, etc.) with them and over the weekend I dropped the hint to his mom that he needs a new plastic pitchfork for the barn. |

       Location: Phoenix | My boyfriend and I don't do presents....but his birthday is on New Years Eve so I end up practically Xmas shopping. I did get him his first pair of cowboy boots for Xmas this year. They were supposed to be from the entire family but I ended up buying a pair when we went to Boot Barn to try on boots for sizing.
for his birthday, I'm thinking an electric shaver because his old one died and he HATES shaving with a razor. Maybe some basketball shorts or comfy sweats because he loves his comfy clothes. |

You crack me up! - I hope you are able to find a fountain to swipe the top off of - would suck to have to buy the whole thing just for the top - keep us posted on this - LOL! |

   Location: North Dakota | My hubby is all about roping this year, he went through the nrs magazine and gave me a list, some with, "I think this is too much" but I want it ! I spent enough on splint/bell boots and a barrier yesterday to get the free cinch jacket I also need to find a Chris Ledoux box set (wish we could do itunes) but we drive old vehicles and I should be done, hard to be the 17 caliber lever action rifle I bought him last year! I love to buy stuff he never would-there are so many things he "needs" that he buys himself that he doesn't ever spoil himself, only me and our kids so it's the least I can do ! |
