I've already sent the gifts ahead via snail mail (Hello! $85 in shipping!). So that lightens the load a bit. I even managed to ship off our stockings (I made them last year) -- hopefully that will make it seem like Santa really does exist!
Well dear reader, I'm off now. I gotta get busy, busy, busy. I am also packing my laptop so that I can stay in touch and keep up with my blog reading. I'll also be posting the Gifty! Round 2 information in a future post. I'll be sure to include specific dates and such. After that posts, I'll also make sure to e-mail you your NEW! Gifty partner. Until then, be well!






Cute stocking! Hope you have a safe and fun trip. Enjoy!

Have fun!!!

Those stockings are great!! Especially since you will be in Hawaii this year... they look like Christmas in Hawaii stockings.
I am so jealous- NJ isn't quite the same as Hawaii.... :)
