My kids have been teasing me about the status of our decorations. Luckily they have good senses of humor. The above picture is what my tree looked like yesterday morning.
This is what it looks like now.
Here is a detail…I wouldn’t let them open the boxes and wrap the presents so they decided to do this. They are very amused with themselves. Seriously, I have no idea what is in those boxes but this is going to be a fun Christmas yet. I just know it.
It will be a merry christmas I'm certain.

Enjoy your Christmas! And I can't wait to see your finished quilt (I'm sure you can't wait for that, either!).

You will make some new happy memories this Christmas for sure. I should have done the same thing since all of my shopping was done on line also. Have the Best Christmas with your family. Next year, I will be right here waiting each month for the new 2011 quilt blocks. Loved the 2010!

I absolutely love your tree and presents! Wrapping paper is over-rated. I enjoyed your previous You Tube post...I need to share that one.

I was wondering how you were doing Christmas with all those sore fingers. A couple of boxes arrived here yesterday with that same familiar swooshie arrow on the side. I wasn't allowed the privilege of touch. That's a very difficult thing for a quilter, as you probably know. I should tell them to do the same with the wrapping. I'm sure your quilt will be will be beautiful, it will be a Christmas you'll all remember!

Santa orders through Amazon? Wow.
Having the boxes pile up underneath the tree is a wonderful, no-fuss, idea.

First of all, it is very "Boulder" - environmentally friendly, no wasted wrapping paper. Secondly, it will make for a Christmas full of surprises! Have a great holiday!

Looks like fun to me! Wish I'd thought of it!
