YIPPEEE I am done. I have found a box that just fits everything. I don't even need to add paper to it as it is packed full. YIPPEEE. I just gotta tape it all up and get it ready for the mail. I am ready when My partner is ready. HELLO Partner. We got snow.
At least it will be a white christmas this year. Came close last year to being a green christmas snowed on christmas day last year. WHEW. never had a green christmas yet.
Talk to you all later.

Miss Rhonda - I feel like I have been MIA the past 10 days!!!! DD had surgery on Nov. 15 and then with Thanksgiving and all, I have not been in "Cricut mode" and have missed keeping in touch. I have been taking care of her continually, but it is a blessing to be able to do so. Back to my regular job tomorrow and hopefully getting back to normal - as normal as life can be with the Christmas season approaching! This is my favorite time of year.
I placed an order last week and can't wait to get it! I can' t believe how quickly December got here!
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
Sheila

Hello Ladies!
I am working on making the tags and then I have to get everything wrapped up and ready to go. I am hoping to mail the beginning of next week. My partner is out of town so I am waiting on her return.
Rhonda - I think it is great that you altered a stocking! That is one thing I wish I was more crafty at - altering projects. I have to admit my partner's stocking may be quite plain, but it will be stuffed full of goodies!
-Wendy

Jess you got it right. Today is my day. Vegas was great!! wish we could have stayed longer. I took over 400 pics so posting some should be easy. I wrapped everything yesterday now I need to find a box and off to the post office. Can't wait for you to get it, remember you can only start on the 12th and then one present a day.

Weagz.....thanks...I LOVE to alter anything that sits long enough...lol. It wasn't much altering to her stocking, but enough to give it pizazz.....I hope she likes it. Just practice...it all comes with time and you improve once you get the hang of it....
Sheila....I sent you a PM, sweetie. PRayers are with your DD on a God-speed recovery. I'm done with your stocking too....just have to wrap and label....I hope you enjoy the goodies.

I am so glad I remembered! You'll have a little extra belated something in your box  ! Can't wait to see pics of Vegas! Glad you had a great time! I have to run out for more wrapping paper and tape today! I remember..... start with day 12  ! Shucks I hope I don't forget when that box is in my happy little hands  ! Just Kidding ! I am seriously going to have to give the box to DH. He said he would play by the rules and only give me one present at a time. Its bad when your that weak that you have no self control! Seriously I can't  ! I would unwrap them all at once  ! I literally love presents! I will have this in the mail soon! Can't wait for you to get your goodies! I think you are going to love them! Have a wonderful day!

Jess, your package is on the way Here are pics of Vegas. One is of the view from our room on the 19th floor One is of me in the hotel lobby the last is of the Venetian Hotel. The gondola ride is within the hotel not outside. It was absolutely unbelievabe that there was a beautiful italian square that appeared to be outside but was inside.

Yay! I can't wait Penny! Thanks for being a great partner! Your pictires are great! Wow it looks amazing where you stayed! I never would have thought it would be indoors. I don't think I could have done the 19th floor either....No way ! I will have your box out soon. My MIL and nephew came over and stayed all day. They left about 30 minutes ago ! I love them but dang, I had things to do. Not sure if I will have time tomorrow but I will definately on monday! Have a great night y'all! Edited by user Saturday, December 01, 2012 6:39:19 PM(UTC)

Hey girls...
Sheila....thanks for the address....I will most likely be mailing it off this week...will post tracking once I do. ENJOY, It's been a pleasure having a NEW sister to spoil.
Penny....LOOKS fabulous there....DH and I are planning to go to Vegas in March....there are 3 races all in ONE week there and he wants to go....ME...Hoover Dam....Grand Canyon....The STrip in Vegas....not so much a gambler...just the sites to see. His family goes every year....and asked us to go with them this year again...didn't go last year. I'm thinking it's at a different time??! NOt sure...but DH is liking this idea .....me not so much...I don't want to just sit and gamble like they all do...and I feel like we would just FOLLOW them on THEIR plans and none of ours would be done.
HUGS

Rhonda
There is so much to see in vegas. Gambling definately was not our focus. You can walk from hotel to hotel down the strip. It truly is an amazing place. There are a lot of free things to do also. Each hotel seems to host a different 10-20 min show at night, we had an amazing time. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Penny

Good morning! Vegas sounds amazing! I would love to go one day butI'm afriad of flying  ! I know its a safe way to travel, I am just scared of heights. No interest in it at all  ! Now if we set out for a road trip....I would be game for that! Can't wait to start seeing pictures of opened packages! 10 days and counting! Please make sure all packages are out in time to start opening on the time so it will count us down to Christmas eve! Can't wait! Woohoo! I love surprises! I am such a big kid. I got it honest though....my mom was too. I really miss her this time of year. It was her favorite! Glad I share it with y'all! Big waves to my partner Penny! I hope you have a fabulous sunday! Your package will be going out soon! Have a great day!

I finished all of my wrapping today and stuffed that stocking up to the brim! One of the gifts does not fit inside. I'm going to go to the PO tomorrow to get a box so I can pack it all up and get ready to go. Just waiting on my partners return so we can ship out at the same time! Sending you a PM Cherie. -Wendy
