Oldest birthday is today, and he asked for a room remodel as a combined present. We will do the renovation part, and he will contribute the money he scores from grandparents/aunts/uncles towards the furniture. He settled on a really cool look, and his room will be awesome when completed.
Middle One is getting a professional sandbag for his Taekwon-Do training.
Youngest lobbied for a big TV, and we bought a used one at a really low price, as everybody is upgrading to flat panels.
All three are getting assorted small goodies I have been squirreling away as surprises.
The Guy gets some computer/electronics thingy or other. He pointed, I bought. Also a mound of his favourite candy, Baumstämme, as it is only available at Christmas time.
As a family, we are getting annual passports to a local amusement park.
The sets of grandparents and my brother get each an electronic picture frame with a slide show of the boys growing up.
Fudge for all.
Oh, and Hillwilliam? We buy presents for our pets too.
In Germany we do not have Santa Claus, we have the Christkindchen. And in our house, there is also the Christhündchen (dog), Christkätzchen (cats), Christfischchen (fish), and Christechschen (lizard).
A feeding device shaped like an anthill for the lizard, special munchies for the fish, new catnip toys and some really fancy food for the cats, and our dog gets monstrous bone, a new toy, and a new, huge, snuggly teddy bear (yeah, our big newfoundland sleeps with a teddy bear, wanna make something of it ? [:D] ).
