My most memorable gift was my ereader. I had been thinking and researching getting one for a couple of years. One day my mom heard me discussing the pros and cons of a friends Kindle. That year, under the tree, I got my first ereader. I was thrilled!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
The most memorable gifts I've ever received have come from my 6 children :) When they were little they'd make the sweetest handmade presents. Now they are adults and teenagers and they purchase me gifts which is nice too but no gift could replace the love they put in their handmade gifts.
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays,

So glad I discovered your site through the hop - will have to share with other readers. My most memorable gift was my iTouch. It wasn't on my wish list at all but we've been attached at the hip (and fingertip) every since.
ReplyDeleteLove your site as always! And I have to say it's fun to be a hopper instead of a host for this one!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas present would probably be My tablet.
Merry Christmas! The best Christmas present I received was my eBook reader. My husband gave me a gift card to cover the price of it because he wasn’t sure which one I wanted but he knew what it cost because he overheard me discussing the pros and cons of the 2 I had narrowed it down to with my best friend. I was able to get it and a cover for it with his gift card. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas. Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win. <^_^>

My most memorable gift was the DVD/book shelf that my husband made me (a nice cherry finish) and I could hang on the wall. It was so beautiful and the fact he made it made it more special.

One of my favorite Christmas Romance Books is The Untamable Rogue by Annette Blair! The story is about Ashford Blackburne Fifth Earl and he has to get married and get his willing bride pregnant before Christmas or his grandfather won’t let him inherit his money. Ash truly needs to inherit the money because his late father squandered it all away and he is taking care of his mother. After getting stood up at the alter, again, Ash and his friends go to the local pub where the owner plays a drunken Ash in a card game…his consolation prize is the pubs daughter Larkin, who he wants to get ride of. Ash has to learn to forgive…Larkin has to learn how to trust…can two completely different people find love together. This is a cute, extremely funny, romantic story with a surprise Christmas ending!

So glad I found your blog! You're title describes me to a tee. Most memorable gift....my first pair of ice skates. My dad was laid off and we were flat broke-I was old enough to understand. I tried not want anything big because I knew it wouldn't happen. My parents surprised me with a pair of second hand ice skates even though I'd never dreamed of asking for any. It ment so much not to have to wear the rentals when I went out with my friends!

The most memorable Christmas gift I received was from my Mom a few years ago. I had spotted a wooden frame in a catalog that she had. It had the words from a Robert Frost poem that my grandfather (her Dad) used to say all the time when I was younger from Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening. She ordered the frame & put a picture of him in it. It is a gift I treasure.
