I gave up!

Okay, so I gave up.  I put our Christmas tree up.  It looks great!  It is starting to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go..... Just kidding.  At least it looks like it in our living room.  Arlee was really into the bright red ornaments.  She would army crawl right up to them.  Trying to grab them and then would end up on her face.  Good times were to be had watching her.  I have wrapped all the presents that we have right now.  I really need to get it together and get the rest of my shopping done.  Hans has been working, studying and going to school a lot so it has been hard to go out together. We haven't done anything for Arlee yet.  It is just crazy how busy two people with one child can get.  The thing is I even stay home!  One would think that I have more time, but I don't.  I have been trying to pack a lot and stuff, but not too successful.  I felt really good just for getting the tree up.  With Hans not having anytime to go with me I might just have to do it myself.  I don't want to, but if we do end up moving before Christmas it is going to be really difficult to get anything done.  Well I think that I am done telling my sob story.  You have to admit though I am a pro at it. : )
I found some "to and from" tags down in the basement.  They are from when my grandma was alive about 14 years ago. So they are really old, because she bought them before then of course.  I thought it was really cool to find them and be able to use them with our gifts.  We now have modern wrapping paper with an antique flare. : )  I also found some old wrapping paper that I am planning on using on a special someones present.  Wouldn't you like to know if it is yours?  My plan is to go out tomorrow and get the shopping done and my sister's gift shipped.  We will just have to see what happens.
