The best thing about a January birthday is you can scoop up a lot of gifts on sale like this fun flannel shirt, Patagonia Nano Jacket or On Running Sneakers. I gave Tommy the Solo Stove years ago and it is the best gift ever. Now they have a metal surround that acts as a table that I love and include a log holder for a fun themed fire pit gift!
