I didn't see her in the kitchen whipping up fresh batches of edible architecture though. I think as time is running short, I'll have to save the gingerbread for next year! The planning begins now!

This year we drew names to keep the stress level low. I'm sitting here reviewing my list and I think that all my boxes are checked off - a great place to be. But now I don't know what to with myself for the next few days!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I envy him; he is actually very much tied to nostalgia, ideas, and experiences rather than "things." I think it just doubles the pressure!<br />3. Christmas should be stress free. The stress makes me cranky and usually sick. I'm trying to keep it relatively easy-breezy and HEALTHY this year! <br />4. I wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I can't wait to see what you have in store for 2013!Mr. Tinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16646297018044505890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215568693807799004.post-26203818636891361632012-12-22T09:40:54.863-08:002012-12-22T09:40:54.863-08:00Thanks MB!

I love what you created for him. Such a fitting gift! <br /><br />I'm ready for the big day. We don't exchange gifts with many people these days, so it's not as stressful. It got a lot easier when we stopped exchanging gifts with Mel's sisters and their husbands & kids... that probably knocked our gift-giving down by 2/3. lol No handmade gifts this year so I don't have to feel that extra pressure. I'm off to my mom's to relax, bake cookies and from what I hear, allegedly help her sew my step-dad a shirt.<br /><br />Hope your holidays are lovely!Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368418516615371972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215568693807799004.post-30499688763288677952012-12-21T10:40:32.059-08:002012-12-21T10:40:32.059-08:00Okay:

Everyone in the world with even a smidgen of taste would want one. You really do come up with some great ideas.<br /><br />2. Wow, I've never had the chance to pick out a gift for Charles but I can only imagine the pressure....wow. <br /><br />3. I'm totally not ready but have stopped stressing over it. The crazy thing is that we have an entire YEAR to prepare but it still leaves some of us behind. So it goes.<br /><br />Hope that y'all have an amazing Christmas!

You are so very talented Mr. Tiny - and your gift to Charles fits right in with those other presents.<br /><br />The only thing I'm making this year for Xmas is plans - to have a good time, appreciate friends and family, and reflect on a fabulous past year meeting cool folks like you and Mary.<br /><br />Best of the festive holiday season to you both! <br /><br />Mod Betty & Retro RoadhusbandMod Betty / RetroRoadmap.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12474815012466164858noreply@blogger.com
