My fiance and I are flying to NC on Friday May 9 through NWA

We are going to get some stuff today, I want to give something to Ryan's mom and Dad.

They are very supportive and very nice to me.. Since my fiance is only child, his parents treating me like their daughter... and I am very very happy to be part of their family...

So, I want to give even small present to them as an appreciation for their kindness and support to us

But I don't know what to give yet..... :(

When Ryan's dad visit us here 1 week ago, we gave him a jeepney (toy) and a small sculp carabao... he's very happy with it..:) he have collections in every country he visited :)

Pls give me some ideas to give them... for ryan's mom...

and his dad... he have already the carabao & jeepney... what else??? ................

Premie, congrats and i am so happy for you! Finally the long wait is over. Try to visit "KULTURA" in Mall of Asia, you have lots of choices there... How about a mug and print into it a family pose, like you and ryan, together with your in-law. Have a safe trip.

--------------------------------------------

wow mug with printed pose :) they like to drink coffee... maybe I will give them like this also :) thnxxxxxxxxxxx

HHmmmmm. No one will beat my idea...both your parent-in-laws will be happy in a lifetime.

Why not give them a baby? :idea:

Kidding aside, wish you had the time to make a cross-stitch and framed it. Maybe, native stuffs or a hand painted wall decor with a filipino theme.

Have a safe trip Primie & Ryan!

ahahah u make me laugh and blush :)

we dont have plan to have baby yet ;) wink.. but my fiance's parents knew about it also & supported us :)

hehe thnx & goodluck

Since he is the only son, I am sure the parent are very protective of him.

I would speak to the parents alone and let them know you intend to be the best wife any husband could have.

yah thnx so much .. hehe i will do this also after i will give my small present to them :)

Something made of filipino material, small and easy to pack :) Happy trip!

thanks for the idea :)

A woven handbag, a 100% silk hand woven scarf from tribal groups (and re-run their history to your parents-in-law), hand-carved wooden cookwares, miniature hope chests, there are lots of ideas to choose from.

By the way, the things I just cited are the same things I gave my MIL. She loved them!

wow really, u impressed her.. thnx for the ideas :)

woowww!!!!!!!!!

here in DAVAO they sell PEARLS i mean the real ones from "BADJAO" who swims very deep to get pearls?!! they are just seeling it for 1000PHP for the whole set ( necklace, earings, and a ring)

see the huge difference??? mmmmmmmm. . . .

Maybe the Carabao stuff and Horse is better for my In Laws and classy Native bags is very nice too, I heard one of my friend that when you use Native Bag in U.S you are "IN" because it is very expensive in U.S..

cege I made up my mind!!!! hope its not much expensive...
