To the post office I go...

Two times a year the post office is super busy. April and December. I bet you can figure out why.

Anyway, I am sending gifts to my best friend and her two daughters for christmas this year. Her name is Jennifer and she lives in Ohio. Her two daughters are Lauren (almost 3) and Jessica (5 months).I am also sending part of her birthday gift as it falls just a few days after christmas. She says she gets the short end of the stick when it comes to her birthday since it falls around christmas. I think she is right. I try to send her gifts separately and this year we exchanged birthday gifts in October when I went out to see her. It was nice. I miss her so much. It's hard when your friends live away, especially your closest ones. It's also hard when your life is so different from each other. But that's another blog.

This is the biggest package I've sent to her. I needed a big box (computer paper box) as I sent her daughters something they can play with together, of course when Jessica gets older. For now, it will be for Lauren. In case Jennifer reads this, I'm not going to tell. But now I wish I would have took a pic for after christmas. Darn. Now that I think about it, I didn't take a pic of the heart/button magnet I made for my sister Holly for her birthday. Maybe she will post it someday on her blog. I have to make a mental note...take pics.

I do appologize for not writing on this blog as often as I would like...sorry Jodie. :) I am taking a break tonight from overtime. We are backed up at work and so I have been putting in as much as I can for this next pay period. In between that, I have been baking and christmas shopping. I did take time last night to go to the gym. I needed it!

Ta Ta for now. I am in the middle of making spicy pretzels and icing sugar cookies.
