Framed some pictures I took on some trips I went on this year. Also some coffee from a local roaster and I'll probably find a book or two on theology or something for my dad (that's his jam). The parents are pretty easy to get stuff for and they'd be happy with pretty much anything and would be okay with nothing as long as I come home for Christmas.

I got prints of photos of my siblings and I for my mom, and photos of me skiing for my dad. My mom likes reclaimed-wood look frames, so I look for those throughout the year and put the photos in there.

Really it's your parent's fault. Santa has nothing but good will for all the boys and girls.

Pics of the grand-kid. Once I had my little one, gifts became so much easier. The rest of my life is pure insanity, but gifts are easy.

My brothers and I chipped in together for an Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, Nest thermostat, and a smart outlet.

I personally got them a bluray of the PBS documentary on national parks.

A portable record player for my mom with a Tony Bennett vinyl, I had to find something she doesn't have. My parents, (mom specifically) have HUNDREDS of rock and roll records from the 60's and 70's, Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Doors, The Beatles, The Animals etc. Then we can break into her good records when we can get them out of the attic.

For my pop, I'm going to pick up a gift certificate for a massage. My old man has more surgical parts and pieces than the 6 Million Dollar Man, especially in his back.

I'm a shitty kid and couldn't get it all taken care of before the holidays with finals and car problems, they're chill, they understand.
