I found that as the boys get older, their lists are smaller and presents more expensive than ever. Things like phones, watches, electronics are small and pricey! So less stuff to wrap and put under the tree! And less shopping, too.

That reminds me, I'll make a separate post if we want to do a holiday card exchange. We've done it in the past!
