What did everyone get their parents?

While we are on the subject of gifts...I know there have been posts about this before, but I am curious to hear the latest!

We brought our parents hankies (mother of the bride, mother of the groom, etc.).

I was going to buy the parents hankies until my mom surprised me and bought them for FH and his parents. Now I have no clue what to give them.

We gave my mom diamond huggie earrings and I made her a handkerchief.

Al's mom got black pearl earrings and he made a drawing of his parents wedding pic and framed it.

Dad's got cufflinks.

The earrings and the cufflinks coordinated with their wedding outfits.

We also got them albums (which I'm crossing my fingers may be ready for Christmas)

we're thinking of getting them gift certificates to their favorite restaurants.

We went all out...b/c a few months before the wedding...they told us they were adding extra money into the wedding fund... so I knew I wanted to get them a REALLY nice gift...

we got them a 36' VEGA flatscreen TV...my mom had always wanted one and their tv broke and she was going to get a less expensive one...so I wanted to make sure she got it...the price of the TV was nowhere near what they gave us for the wedding...so I was more than happy to do it...unfortunately their old tv broke 2 months before the wedding...so we gave it early...then at the RD we gave

all moms (DH has 3!! mom, nanny, and aunt that helped raise him) a picture frame from fortunoffs...with an IOU for a professional picture from the wedding...

then we had DH's mom smuggle Cuban cigars in from Mexico for my dad...
