Creative Family Christmas Gifts

Over the years, our family has tried many ways to give gifts - we've drawn names, we've given just kid gifts, we've given only stocking stuffers, we've had a Dirty Santa, etc.  This year, we thought we'd try something new - family theme gifts.  So here's what we came up with:  Smore's Basket, Game Night, Movie Night and Payne Family Ice cream night.

So I took the Game night basket and bought each of my sibling's family a basket full of games - some only got one or two gifts (larger games) and some got smaller games with fun plates, cups, snacks, etc.  It was really fun picking this out.

So below, you will see what the Warren family received (because i didn't give myself a basket, we didn't get a game night basket).  This was definitely a great idea, and we will do this again next yar!!

The Smore's Basket - not only the traditional Smore's ingredients, but pokers for the marshmallows, a variation of Reese's peanut butter cups to try and some glow sticks!!


Payne Family Ice Cream Night - An assortment of ice cream toppings and a gift card to Kroger to go buy lots of ice cream!!!!

Movie Night - a couple of movies requested by the kids that we didn't have and some popcorn and candy!!!!
