    Ok, normally I have absolutely no problem coming up with gifts but I freaked the other day when I realized how close Christmas is, plus a friend slipped that he\'s already gotten mine :P My boyfriend and I are hoping to spend Christmas together this year, it\'ll be our first one we\'ve spent together in the 4 years we\'ve been together so I really want to come up with something special but haven\'t had much luck.

    I have no idea what to get him. He just finished Med School and is already working at a large hospital as a Plastic Surgeon. Loves cars and Batman and of course me lol I\'ve already looked at couples t-shirts since he loves those corny, mushy, sweet type things but didn\'t find anything. I\'ve done the coffee mug with my picture and a message on it, he loved it so something like that is out. We\'ve had a really hard year with a life throwing a lot of pain so I want something hopeful, something he\'ll remember and love.

    Absolutely any ideas or suggestions to get my mind going would be fantastic! Thank you!

    Do you know how to use photoshop? create a photo of you two with an inspiing quote, put it in a nice frame.

    maybe you cant find the t-shirts, but you sure as hell can make them:) blank tees, clothespins, cardboard, markers:)

    scrapbook! corny, awesome, lovable

    coupon book (as a side gift, not the big one) always a good thing "good for one free *censored* :) "

    he just finished med school.... so how about a collaboration of the corniest but awesome medical shows on t.v scrubs... e.r

    i dunno.... hard to give gift ideas when you dont know a person, but i hope some of those help... and breath:) you still have two months

    Thank you so much! :)

    I'm thinking I might end up doing a lot of it last minute. Since he's living in a different country for the schooling we have no pictures of us together that are anything close to current so if plans go right I'll be seeing him the 2nd week of December, get some current pictures.

    I was thinking there's those blankets you can order with your picture on it, he might like one of those.

    I do have a big stack of love letters, cards and things like that I've been saving that I've written to him when we couldn't talk and I couldn't send them, thinking of adding those. And I love the coupon book idea :)

    He comes from a family where if there's something he wants they don't hesitate to get it for him, an absolute Have everything guy lol Thinking lots of picture things.

    It'll be the first holiday he's been out of a wheelchair for a year as well so I'm trying to figure out something to do with that. He's already been given canes he loves and stuff like that. And I know I freaking to early...lol...I hate doing the last minute thing though since I'm to perfectionistic hahaha
