Ours have been great with helping out with childcare this year so we'd like to treat them a bit. What pressies are you getting for yours?

DS is their only grandchild, this makes presents a lot easier for us :o
We recently had a photo shoot done with a really good photographer (it was arranged by the local play group who get a % of the total) which was free. The photos were lovely and a disc of 6 images was £60 so they will be getting a lovely collage photo from Snapfish.
DS will also make some sweets or cookies from him personally and we will give gifts from us to them (this year a homemade pin board specifically requested by DM and the Flavourly box 3 month subscription i saw on here for DF)

National Trust membership. My DM has told me that photos of the grandchildren are not a present! Grin

Panto tickets and my mum is getting a nice scarf as well made by my friend (bought that first then parents decided they would like panto tickets when I suggested them coming with me and Ds so my mum gets 2 prezzies!), although dad's birthday at the end of the month and I have Quentin Tarantino DVD to give him for his birthday.
