Missing You At Christmas
My boyfriend was away for Christmas and I wanted to let
him know how much I missed him. The phone calls weren't
enough, so I downloaded a whole bunch of songs that said
I missed him, and mailed it to him. Every time I would
call I could hear the songs in the background, so it
brought many smiles to both our faces ‘till he returned.

Jingle Bell Serenade
My boyfriend and I had just started dating. I was very
excited to have someone to shop for on Christmas. A few
days before Christmas he informed me that he hadn't had
any money to get me a gift, but he made me something and
wanted to bring it over to me on Christmas morning. I
thought it was very unique and thoughtful of him to make
me a present. So, on Christmas morning he called me and
said he was right around the corner from my house. I
heard the loudest noise coming from outside. I looked
out of my window and saw my guy standing on the back of
a trailer that was hitched to a truck with a microphone
in his hand. He called for me to come outside. The
trailer was very nicely decorated with wrapping paper, a
comfy couch and a fake Christmas tree. He, along with a
few other friends, started to serenade me and my family
(who were outside video taping the whole thing) to quite
a few Christmas carols. Then he dedicated a very special
song to me and brought me up on the trailer. He then
bent down on one knee and sang to me for the remainder
of the song. It was the cutest thing in the world and
the most appreciated gift I have ever received and
probably will receive. He said the idea didn't cost him
a thing, but a few working hours to get everything
perfect for me...and on top of that he skipped Christmas
morning with his parents to come and serenade me. That
was the sweetest thing by far!!

Holiday Spirit Surprise
My boyfriend and I have been dating for 8 months, and we
are very much in love. This Christmas is his first one
out of college and in his own apartment. While he was
back in his home town for Thanksgiving Holidays, I
called up his old roommate to see if he still had a key
to his place. After I had retained the key, I went to
Wal-mart and packed up on lots of cute Christmas
decorations such as stockings, garland, peppermint
canes, lights, a miniature Christmas tree complete with
skirt, garland, ornaments, and a tiny angel on top,
candles, and the beginning of a snowman collection. I
also bought a tree skirt for when he gets a Christmas
tree. Then, I went into his apartment the night before
he came home and completely decorated it for Christmas.
I laid the tree skirt where he wanted to set up his
first Christmas tree. When he got home the next day, he
was completely surprised that I had filled his apartment
with Christmas spirit and also very grateful because
with finals coming up he wouldn't have had much time to
do it. Soon, we will get to pick out a tree and decorate
it together. It was a great pre-gift for our first
Christmas together.

Holiday Message in a Bottle
My boyfriend is a big sweetheart and I love making him
things. They don’t cost much (if any money spent) but
mean a lot to him when he opens it. Well, for Christmas
last year I decided to write him a letter telling him
exactly how I felt about him. I wrote my letter on a
blank piece of white computer paper (hand written of
course). When I was done, I crumpled it up, then opened
it flat, and repeated that several times until it had
that "old fashioned" look to it. Then I found an empty
champagne bottle with a cork top. I rolled up my letter
small enough to fit through the bottle opening and tied
a piece of string into a bow around the letter. I then
took a longer string, connected it to the bow and also
connected it through the cork. (To tie it through the
cork, dig a hole just wide enough for the string to fit.
I used a paper clip end to make the hole.). When he
opened it on Christmas, he pulled on the cork, and since
the string was connected to the letter, that was pulled
out along with it. He loved it and thought it was so
sweet that I'd made him something he can open up and
read when he needs to. He keeps it next to his bed now
along with other presents I've given him. It’s just a
cute little way to show him you care.

Memory Book Cookbook
My boyfriend and I both love spending the night planning
out a big meal. We hold hands while we go to the grocery
store, pick out everything we need and then go back to
his house to prepare and cook it together. This is our
first Christmas together and I got him a "scrapbook"
type photo album. On the first page I put a torn out
recipe from a magazine that we enjoyed one night, and a
pictures of us in the kitchen all messy and in the
middle of a meal. It became a scrapbook of our
relationship, to add more recipes and memories to as we
continue cooking through the years together.

In His Kiss
For my honey's Christmas present, I had bought him
things that I knew he wanted, and a few small little
things, which were little inside jokes between the two
of us. I wrapped them each individually and put them all
in a tin box. I couldn't just have them floating around
in the box like that, and Styrofoam packaging peanuts
were just not going to cut it. So instead, I used
chocolate kisses. And not just any chocolate kisses, for
each kiss, I typed out one of the many reasons I love
him and replaced the flags with these little pieces of
paper. He hadn't even noticed the flags I had placed in
it until I told him to open one. When he saw what I did,
he immediately took me in his arms. He loved it, more
than the gift I think :)

Love Ornaments
What you do is get clear round ornaments, open the top
and slip pieces of paper inside with reasons you are in
love with your partner. Or, write about great memories!

Missing you movie
During Christmas, me and my beautiful girl Brooke plan
to spend the holidays with our families. Well, we both
had talked about presents and stuff and I had planned to
surprise her with my presence on the day after but it
just isn't going to work out. So I'm going to make her a
video with the camera and tell her how much I miss her
and how special she is to me.

Homemade Teddy Bear Exchange
My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost four
years, three of them have been long distance, because I
am away at school. Because of this I am also always
broke. So, as part of his Christmas gift I found a kit
at Wal-Mart to make your own teddy bear. I hand-made him
a teddy bear and made a little velvet vest for him and
sewed a little heart to his bum. He thought it was
really cute! Then for Valentine’s Day he decided to make
me a matching one. It was adorable and so incredibly
sweet! The funny part is that his is way better than
mine!

Journal Box
Last year for Christmas, I went out and bought my
boyfriend a shirt and some other things, but I also
wanted to make something special. I got an empty Nestle
Quik container (the yellow ones) and cleaned it out.
Then, I went through tons of magazines to find pictures
and phrases that described our relationship. I covered
the lid and container with these. Then, for the entire
month of December I wrote little notes everyday about
what I love about him, things we had done that day that
made me happy, or other little things. I added some love
poems and love quotes, each on a separate piece of
folded paper. He loved it! It's still sitting on his
desk!
