10 UNIQUE gifts for the University Age / High School Boy on your List

It’s been said before and I will say it again, I LOVE all holidays.  BUT – nothing holds a more special place in my heart than CHRISTMAS!!!  I am a Christmas fanatic.  Not the put up the tree before Halloween fanatic, but the patiently waiting puppy at the back door kind of fanatic.  After Remembrance Day, my tail is wagging and I’m salivating for the go-ahead to start the holiday preparations.  Everything about the holiday gets me excited.  I love the baking, the shopping, the wrapping, finding that PERFECT present and waiting with bated breath for the lucky recipient to open it.  When the kids were younger, I could barely contain my excitement on Christmas Eve.  I could hardly wait to see their faces when they opened their gifts.  My philosophy on the Christmas gift came from my mom and is two-fold.  First,  find something you know they will love, that is NOT on their list and second, get that one thing they REALLY REALLY want but don’t think you will ever buy! 🙂

Don’t we ALL have that Christmas present story?   The one where you searched high and low for the “toy of the year” or that special something your child wanted, that you just COULD NOT find.  The story that has you out on Christmas Eve until the stores close.  I’ve got my story, stay tuned…
