Part of the fun, she told me, was remembering what she had gotten for others when they opened the gifts. It was almost always a surprise for her too.
Oh yeah, our stockings are literally overflowing! There are several of us who buy stocking stuff

And the remembering of the gifts: One year my SIL opened something from my Mom and while she was very gracious, it was obviously something that she would never use.....my Mom looked over "Oops! That's not yours, hold on a minute" Runs downstairs and gets the REAL gift

Right now I already have 4 large bags FILLED with stuff ready to wrap
