I picked up another small Christmas gift when I was out shopping this morning. :shop: It's almost time for a marathon wrapping session. :D

Pretjah while I make sure that all the Must haves are bought early. I thoroughly enjoy shopping for the extra little gifts in the weeks and sometimes days right before Christmas. As for Christmas wrapping, well if I have it completed by the 23rd I am doing well! :laugh:
My Hubby almost always is out on Christmas Eve looking for my gift. Poor man gets so stressed! I always tell him not to worry, and just get me a little chocolate,that's all I need.

Bought my wife another Christmas present today. Had it wrapped and sitting on the present pile before she got home from work. She was shocked.

Pretjah,
