    Default All Wrapped Up

    Well, I came home early from school today because I am sick. However, despite the order to go home and rest, I thought of an easy project that needed to be done, so I did it.

    And so, all of our Christmas presents for the kids are wrapped and hidden. We got most of our presents through extreme sales online and on Black Friday. I kept a few out for each of their February birthdays and one out for each child that the baby will give to them when it comes home from the hospital (so they aren't too put out by the new arrival.) So, Julia has 4 gifts wrapped and waiting, and Patrick has 3. I also have some little stocking stuffers, but they don't get wrapped. They are hidden with the gifts and Santa will sneak them in the stocking on Christmas Eve.

    Phewf...does it feel good to have that done!

    Good for you! I am starting wrapping today, too, but I have tons of wrapping to do, so it won't all get done today.

    Now go to bed and feel better soon!

    Glad you were able to get all your wrapping done today. The boys bugged me yesterday until I wrapped presents for the extended family. They like to help. So that is done. I still need to wrap their gifts, but will wait until I am alone.

    I hope you feel better soon Amy!!

    I have everything wrapped but a few gifts. I did it over Thanksgiving weekend. I ran out of paper. I don't want to buy more since I have a lot stored at my parents house. I got a great deal on super thick paper last year.
