Good morning, yes I had a great time with Aidan. He kept asking for his Mom. I told him she will be coming at Christmas time. He asked 'How we get to Christmas time?" I told him we have to wait for it to come.

Hey Paymaster,
If you want to have a wrapping party, let me know. I'll be there. :)

Hey, my husband is the MASTER gift wrapper. I had to do these rather quickly and get them in the box, or he'd have given my the eyebrow when he saw how I'd wrapped the presents. I just figure my son is going to tear into them and he really doesn't care how they're wrapped. My husband takes wrapping very seriously. Usually, it takes me 20 minutes to open a present, 'cause he's got so much tape on it and there isn't any place I can get my finger under the wrapping. But his presents DO look awesome! Mine have wrinkles in the paper and such. Hee Hee Hee.
As for Keona (the dog), I wanted her to model the hat I'm sending Max. By her expression, you can see that she was obviously NOT thrilled.
Hey, did you notice the Christmas tree air fresheners? I put a sticker on there in front of the word "Trees" that says "Bahrain Christmas". Since he has no room for a tree, I figured this is as close as he'll get.
And here is the pic of the box right before I sealed it up. I took a 10' garland and snaked it across the top (thereby hiding the wrapping job). Then I laid the elf hat on top.

I didn't see where the dog fit in that box. You are good at packing!

I suppose it would help if I actually attached the pics. :)

Okay, so I finally got Max's Christmas care package done. Had to re-arrange stuff a bunch of times to get it to fit.
Here are a couple of pics of the progress and finished box.

Happy Birthday LZ27!
