Christmas Shopping....

Yesterday morning I was kind of freaking out because I had not bought single Christmas present. I normally wait to do my Christmas shopping, but this year it seems I just keep putting it off.

I have a TON of kid/baby gifts to buy and for some reason I have a hard time trying to figure out something to buy. I always try to find something that is useful for them. I know they get a lot of toys from Santa and I want to get them books or toothbrushes... I know! I am crazy! Or I like to buy them are supplies or something that is creative... mainly because I love kid art... I think it so cute... even just a page out of a coloring book... I just love it.

Anyway, I told Tallon that I was going to get as much of it done as I could. We withdrew some money and I took an extra long lunch break - this was smart idea because yesterday the roads were a little icy and school was called off... which means a lot of people we stuck at home with their kids and couldn't go out shopping... So, I pretty much at Target all to myself and it was wonderful.

I had about 2 and half hours to get as much of it done as possible. I really thought that I would have to go to several other stores, but I didn't. I got almost EVERYTHING at Target and didn't go over my budget! All I have left is my mom and dad and one of Tallon's nephews ( Tallon wants to get him a Beta fish... so I making him pick it out) I will probably go Friday and finish my shopping. Hopefully it won't be too busy.

Then after work Tallon and I went to eat and I decided I needed to buy some wrapping paper... We didn't want to have to go to Wal-Mart or Target, but we just happened to be right next to Toys-R-Us and they had a TON of wrapping paper... we bought some and went home and I starting wrapping up all the gifts and I got everything wrapped up... even Honesty birthday presents! WOO HOO!

I was really stressing out that morning, but I have never felt more relieved than last night. I was happy with all my purchases and with the fact that I got it all wrapped up. I am so ready for Christmas now! And on Thursday mom and I are getting together to bake up some wonderful Christmas treats... yum!
