Okay, the excitement builds . . . only 8 days left! And, usually, by this time of year, I am going a little crazy, because I still have sooooooooooooo many gifts to finish! And, while that is true this year, they ARE getting done, little by little! (And, the ONLY gift that I had to mail, to Colorado, is DONE and mailed -- WOO HOO!!!)I have vowed to hand-make as many gifts as possible, this year, to make it more meaningful to the receiver (hopefully!) and, I'll be honest, cut down on costs! But, it has been very rewarding for me, I will say! And, it is amazing how creative you can get, if you put your mind to it! Shanna, can I get an "AMEN!"
This ornament, for example, was made for me, last year, by my darling friend, Michelle. (Yes, the same Michelle as http://www.papertherapy.com/!) We loved it last year, and we will love it as long as it decides to stay with us! LOL
Anyway, happy shopping, crafting, wrapping, hiding and enjoying . . . for 8 more days! ♥

Angie - pregnant is NOT lazy!!! You have every right to stay clear of hand-made gifts for at least this blessed time of expectation, especially since you are crafty with your job ALL THE TIME!!
You're too cute! ♥
