The wrap-up.
Yesterday went a little something like this:I slept in—hooray!—then went Christmas shopping with Steve.
We conquered 10 stores in five hours, braving insane traffic and even crazier shoppers!

Lunch was delish, by the way …

Our day was topped off with four HOURS of wrapping (I went for quality, not quantity) …

… and an evening nap with Milo.
I’m living the dream.
On tomorrow’s agenda: husband is off, and we’re going out to see a play!
How was YOUR Saturday?

Your presents look so pretty. My Saturday was rather dull (that is a side effect of bedrest)…but I did enjoy some hot chocolate with the kids this evening!
awwww looks fantastic. i should have taken pics of my days too. maybe tomorrow. we’re going to be making cookies and decorating the tree we get.
Those presents look beautiful!
If I got one that pretty I don’t know that I’d want to unwrap it!
I still haven’t started Christmas shopping due to finals
Luckily my list isn’t too, too long.
I’m glad you had a fun day!
Love the wrapping paper! You wrap so well!!
I wish my Saturday was like yours, but I had to work
I am off tomorrow so I’ll be going shopping yay!
it was depressing my neighbor who i refer to as grandma lost her dog the other day which i’ve considered as our dog too since we’ve lived here.
But besides that we spent an evening with her.
My Saturday was alright, busy though. I did some chores around the house, vacuuming, dusting, moving stuff in the yard for my dad. Then did loads of homework.
It was perfect!
Looks like a nice day! The wrapped gifts look great!
Mine was, well interesting. I watched a modern theater play. It was very modern… lol
Looks like a GREAT day! Hopefully here soon (at least sometime this morning) I’ll be making a post about my day yesterday — we got to see some really, really neat stuff!!
I’m so jealous of your gift wrapping!
Naps are always a good thing!
my saturday sucked – on the positive side… i lost 4 pounds in one day. i suppose that’s what happens when your stomach won’t tolerate any food or liquid substance – including water. my stomach is still not it’s normal self – but i am going to see Wicked today! what play are you seeing?
You wrap so nicely!! I was most impressed.
Like the PJs… and of course, Milo is just the most photogenic little furball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would never be able to get my presents to look like that! You did such a beautiful job!
My Saturday was pretty good. Got up early and got all my Christmas cards done and sent out. The 4 of us went to the Christmas celebration held at Tryon Palace, which is a historic site downtown in which Governor Tryon of NC built and inhabited back in the 1700′s. Pretty awesome to say the least and every year it ends with a bang… literally. They put on the “Grande Illuminations” (fireworks) to end the festivities. I could kick myself in the arse because I totally forgot my camera! I was so gonna post pics from it today… grrr. Anyway, it was a good Saturday.
I LOVE your wrapping! I love to make my wrapping pretty, but you go all out! Very nice. =) You look so cute in your little PJs… if those are PJs. lol
And Milo… priceless
THOSE WRAPPED PRESENTS ARE AMAZING. Red and black are my two favorite colors to decorate with, and I’m in love with your wrapping. I just had to say that.
I actually slept most of the day yesterday. That’s not how things usually go for me, but I got completely worn out from flying home for my sister’s wedding last weekend and didn’t have time to recover during the week.
Looks like a very successful day. I especially approve of the nap.
Wow, that wrapping is awe-inspiring…if I was receiving a gift like that, I’d refuse to open it!
My Saturday was great. Me and munchkin went to a Scholastic Warehouse sale and bought books (what’s more fun than that?!). Came home and created a gingerbread house with hubby as master-builder. Then hubby and I went out to a concert from our friends, The Afters! It was a pretty perfect day!
THE PRESENTS LOOK AMAZING.
And the hot dog looks yummy, too.
Wow, long day. Those presents do look fabulous. I wish I was a good gift wrapper.
My Saturday was full: taught 2 classes in the a.m., did some chores, taught one class at 4, then went to a cookie exchange afterward, and did my grocery shopping for the week on the way home. Took some cold medicine when I got home and just got up at 10:15! That’s like the longest I’ve slept in for all of 2008 seriously.
Oh my gosh! Can I hire you to wrap my presents?! Lol, you did a beautiful job!…My Saturday was all work, and no play :-. And I am at work now again, on Sunday, but my week should be pretty lax so I guess that makes up for it lol. Happy Sunday!
