Christmas Packages

They seemed to like it. My Hubby loves to cook, so he made a few individual things that were favorites to each kid. I make a fast and easy enchilada that they all seem to like and they can be frozen.

I really like this idea more and more. So much better than a trinket gift and much more affordable. Plus I like that there is more thought and time put into it.

Remember when work places gave out turkeys and hams for holidays? I miss those days!

Oh yes...I remember. It's been so long since that has happened for us, I had forgotten all about it. No ham/turkey's or bonuses anymore.

That is a great gift idea. My aunt gave me a carton of canned goods when I got my first apartment. I really appreciated that.

My first MIL used to make prepackaged meals for me and Jessica. Every month we
would go to visit her and she would pack up 10 - 12 frozen meals. It was so thoughtful because I had very little money, and took a lot of time and thought.

That sounds like a great gift, and I'm sure it's very appreciated!

When my dad owned my company he would give every employee a $50 meijer gift card as a christmas bonus, I believe last year it was even more than $50. But now that we were bought out by someone else I doubt we'll get it this year.
