We all have our favorite things – whether it’s in our closet, on a bookshelf, in our CD player or simply something we just can’t live without. Still Christmas shopping? We asked some of our favorite celebrities what their favorite things are, resulting in a great list of gift ideas from Christmas concerts to custom Photo Puzzles<\/a>. You can find the best gift for your family. It’s a MidWeek <\/em>Style feature that’s become one of my favorite holiday traditions. Wishing you and your family a safe and happy holiday season filled with love, laughter, and, what the heck, some amazing gifts too!<\/p>\n

Favorite Christmas item:<\/strong> We got married in December 2011 and these personalized ornaments were gifts from our friends and family. They mean a lot to us because they’re a reminder of our special day. Our family is getting bigger and we’ll need to get several more ornaments to add to the tree!<\/p>\n

Favorite holiday tradition:<\/strong> Enjoying the neighborhood parade and seeing the holiday lights and displays with family after our annual Christmas dinner.<\/p>\n

Favorite item in your closet:<\/strong> Black stretchy maternity skirt. I purchased several because they’re so comfortable!<\/p>\n\n\t\t
