I'm sure it's the actual gift that counts. When I was little and didn't want to eat a certain food because it didn't look "right" to me, he would say "but it TASTES good and it all goes down the same way to the same place..." Ah, fathers...and four brothers.
Merry Christmas Greg! Hope you and your family enjoy the day and sing Happy Birthday Jesus with Summer :-)
I am a gift bag user because I cannot wrap to save my life! It drives my husband nuts because I am so crafty yet I cannot do this wrapping thing! He does it now since he refuses to have the kiddos open only gift bags at Christmas. Good luck and have a very Merry Christmas!
Right with you, bro! Double grrrrr for me, too. It is the chore I detest the most. Just slap that tape on and forget the fanciness already! It's all going to go in the trash anyway! We have to conserve our energy for more important things is the way I look at it!! : D
I may have to argue with you about that one...lol...Plus I have waited till the last minute on top of that to wrap for EVERYONE including our 5 children....Thinking of you and your family during this CHRISTmas Season... MERRY CHRISTMAS from Georgia
Lucky for you that it's TOTALLY NOT about the wrapping, but all the love that went into it! (not the wrapping per say, the gift itself!) Even if you were sputtering and frustrated at your uneven ends, the tape, the weird shapes and angles....... :-D Trust me, I am no Martha Stewart when it comes to wrapping either!!! Don't feel bad!
Wishing you, Nicol and Summer a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
it's not the wrapping that counts...and God couldn't possibly bless you with EVERY talent, right?!?!?! i mean, writer, preacher, sometimes-singer, basketball player, super-dad.....

Haha....maybe you should take advantage of in-store gift wrapping? :)

Hah! I bet my son could give you a run for your money! We like to call his gift wrapping creative! Bet yours is too!

I was just struggling with a gift myself, a Star Wars set, curve box and a big pain in the you know what.
Merry Christmas

I'm sure you're not...my husband uses aluminum foil.
But, it's what's on the inside that counts, right?
Have a Merry Christmas!
praying for you.....

I'm thankful to see the touch of humor! Good luck with your wrapping.
This cracked me up! Thanks for the laugh...although I'm sure you're not laughing!!! :)
Two words: gift bags! And remember - they're pretty under the tree, but presents are all about the gift! (and yes, I'm a woman, just practical)

My family could always tell which ones were from me...no "to...from..." tag needed on my gifts...one look and they knew it was from Paige!
Merry Christmas!
Paige
Grrrrrrr....eat effort.
