Christmas Festivities....well kind of...

I wish I had a wonderful, magical Christmas blog to write today.....but....it just didn't happen. The cupcakes never got made, the cake decorations went unused, and cream stew for diner rather than anything related to Christmas.


We ended up unwrapping our presents in the morning and then immediately putting everything away and ripping down all of the Christmas decorations. Yes, our celebration lasted a grand total of 10 minutes.


It's not that we are a Scrooge/Grinch like couple, but we just didn't get into it this year. Instead we spent the day ripping through our apartment and cleaning everything....all in preparation for New Year. Also, this is our last Christmas as a couple alone...so quiet and calm was key.


We did get some great gifts...especially the onsie for the baby. However, it was a bit comical as we had no idea where to put it...hmm...may have to do a big reorganization of the apartment in the very near future.


So, even though we had a very quiet Christmas, I'm sure that we are going to make up for it during the New Year holiday.


P.S. Someone asked what the name of the tapeless wrapping was called....The name is simply "diagonal wrapping." If you search Japanese diagonal wrapping....several sites will pop up.... :)
