As you anticipate your first holiday season as a married couple, you should consider a few things that will make the season a little easier on you and your spouse. Your traditions might be different from your spouses traditions – in fact, you can count on them being different, at least some anyway. Depending on how sentimental each person is, this can be a real challenge during the holiday season. If your spouse has been to her grandparents each year of her life on Christmas Eve, but your mother’s side can only get together on Christmas Eve, someone’s going to have to give. That process can be painful. The holiday season doesn’t have to be a divisive time, but here are some tips and issues to consider.
Being a golfer, I really hope my wife reads this post! Golf is a very popular game and buying the right christmas present for the golfer in your life is an important endeavor. A lot of golf products would fit nicely into a 20″ personalized christmas stocking made by MerryStockings. Here’s a list of suggestions:
1. Two sleeves of golf balls: preferably Pro-V1’s
2. Bag of golf tees…for the extra touch, you can personalize golf tees.
3. A new golf glove
4. Gift card to a local store (if you’re reading this honey…that would be Golf Galaxy)
5. Gift card to a local golf course…most courses have caught on to the gift card idea
6. Personalized golf ball marker
7. Golf club cleaning kit
8. Personalized divot repair tool
9. Golf towel that’s either personalized or from his/her favorite local course
10. Two tickets to August National to watch the Masters.

It’s not totally confirmed but most believe that the tradition of the tree skirt began in Germany! The Germans were the first people to begin decorating the Christmas tree. They started out by attaching bows to the tree. Then they attached lit candles to the bows. The problem of melting wax arose and to catch the wax from collecting on the floor they created the Christmas tree skirt. Thus the tradition was born.
Today you can order Christmas tree skirts in a lot different shapes, fabrics and varities. To get a look at a sampling of one companies offereings click here.
