I have to clue what to get for my Husbands parents. They love to travel and are religious people.. However they have everything. I normally like to give gifts based on hobbies or what is needed. We thought of gift baskets but they are given food by most people, they like to eat out a lot but i feel like everything i can get them is something that is an average part of their life. Any ideas for the regular traveler? Any one know of good Audio books?

a large screen garmin with extra memory cards so they can go online and upload different travel countries to different cards? i say garmin because you can customize its appearance and even the voice it tells you directions in. i tried a tom tom and it just seemed more like a toy for a 7 year old than an actual intelligent device i would trust to get me where i need to be. religious means you can order customized bible covers with their names, or maybe a family tree design and their names and anniversary with their children/grand-children's names on the branches below them. new toiletry cases for shampoos as even the most cautious traveler has the occasional shampoo spill which means its pretty on the outside but not so much inside anymore. gift certificates to the restaurants they enjoy while traveling. portable dvd player for when in hotels. a laptop, or wifi card for a laptop if they already have one. if they drive around the country a gift certificate for a tune up and tire inspection would be useful and let them know you care enough to make sure the vehicle is road ready and they will get to their destination safely. but nothing you can give them will mean more to them than time, and knowing you want and enjoy their company. for sentimental value how about a calendar with dates written in pencil that you would like to have them over for a bbq, or dinner, or to take them out just so you can catch up and bond? and include a pen so that they can make it a set date once you agree on the date and time. :)

Gift idea for the inlaws?
Sma
Ok, well they're not technically in-laws yet. However, I am very close to my boyfriend's family. We've been together for three years now and christmas is coming up. I want to get his parents somethign but I can't think of anything! I was thinking of the digital frames but they already have one and I'm really blankingout. Any ideas? They're both in their mid 40s if that helps any. Both very in love with each other. Very funny and young at heart.

Maybe you could get them a gift certificate to their favorite restaurant or tickets to a sporting event/concert/ stand-up comedy show they would both enjoy. You could get them something for their home, such as a piece that would complement their current decor or a fun appliance, such as an ice cream maker.
If you're willing to take the time and effort, make them a photo album or a scrapbook that reflects their relationship. Ask your boyfriend for photos of them when they were younger and ask him if there is anything you can include that will remind them of some of their best times together. Or if you have a lot of photos and/or mementos from times that you have spent together with them, you can use them.
You can also take them out to a nice dinner or plan an outing they will enjoy.
Good luck and happy holidays!
