We leave for our Christmas break next Friday. DH has just confessed he's not had a single thought for his brother and sister in law who we are going to stay with 🤦🏼♀️ DH tried to suggest we don't do adult gifts this year and instead got a heads up about a month ago that DBil has got DH something meaningful and special. They usually buy something lovely for me (though less meaningful and more useful as that's the kind of gift I prefer). Hes the type to stick his head in the sand so should have seen this one coming.
I barely know these people, we live abroad and don't see once or twice every two years. They're both late 30's, practical people with good jobs who can buy themselves anything they'd choose. They have one small child, no pets, go skiing once a year and a sunny holiday too. They don't like clutter. They have a house full of gadgets, lovely artwork, throws etc. Usually I get a hamper of sorts but the meaningful gift hint this year has I think got us both spooked 😅 Have no idea about clothing or feet sizes.
Any ideas? I thought about a necklace with their initials on it for her but I rarely see her wear jewellery, and it's a bit late to have something personalised arrive in time now.
