yes, and then the kids always want to open the gifts so we let them open a few.

basically it takes about an hour to wrap a bunch of gifts and it takes about 1 minute to cover the carpet with shreds of wrapping paper.

I prefer to start after 7:30 p.m. That way the after dinner crowd at the in stor McDonald's has died down.

I do my shopping at Big Lots.

I hope Mom likes the wire-hangers I got her this year better than the ones I got her last year.

I buy all my Chritmas stuff from Mouse. Dude has the best prices in town. Plus if you give him a joint and a burrito he'll wrap all the gifts.

i'm one of those crazy wrappers that tapes the shit out of everything and makes the paper so tight you stuggle to open the gift...

it's fun with the kids but is freakin' hilarious watching the adults trying to open boxes with no seams in them :lmao

You could at least give her something more appropriate to the Holiday Season. They have really cute Holiday dish towels that she could use to cook you a Christmas meal.:toast

I'll be done by this weekend on the presents but I can't get my family to stand still long enough for a pic. I'm going to have to go "Drill Sergeant" on them to get it done.:lol

We're nearly done... I don't think we'll be making any last-minute trips to Wal-Mart this year...

What, so I would have to give you a Santa Rosa Hospital gift card right after that?

one year my dad gave me a football that was wrapped in 4 different boxes at once, with the biggest box looking like the size of a 32 inch TV.....

I was ticked but I cracked up at the same time
