Another one of our #holidaytraditions is that every year each of my girls picks out a wrapping paper and that‘s what I wrap all their gifts in. During the first part of December while I‘m in the process of wrapping all the gifts, they love to look under the tree to see their presents growing in number! This year my oldest picked Snoopy and my youngest the holiday pets.

Tamra Adorable scissors! 13mo
Clwojick Cute! I seen a post on Pinterest to do this, but hide a small scrap in the bottom of their stockings, so they don‘t know which wrapping is there‘s until right before! So many fun holiday traditions out there! 13mo
dabbe Snoopy! 🤩🤩🤩 13mo
Catsandbooks That's so fun! And those scissors are adorable! ❤️ 13mo

I didn‘t have time to draw anything for #DecemberDailyDoodles yesterday, so Cassandra helped me catch up and put some #Snowflake wrapping paper on this #Gift. @Ann_Reads #catsoflitsy

Spent the afternoon wrapping gifts and watching movies! My tradition is to watch While You Were Sleeping, which people forget is set at Christmas.

I also watched White Christmas, The Santa Clause and Mickey‘s Christmas Carol, so I‘m making good progress on my movie bingo board too!

Wrapping presents while the cats play with paper scraps. The tree has been put up. We'll see how long it lasts with a kitten in the house. So far, she hasn't left it alone. 🙄

#WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers @StayCurious

ju.ca.no Oh god, that‘s what I fear😂 the first christmas tree for our cats as well! We havn‘t put it up yet- I still hope for a christmas wonder and well behaved kittens around the tree😂 3y
inthegreensandblues Mine is not such a kitten anymore- 3 yrs- but it's his first tree and it's quite the temptation. There are just lights and a topper on right now, not sure whether I will even put ornaments on it this year. 😭😼 3y

These books are for an in-person holiday swap. Wrapping gifts is one of my favorite things about Christmas! 🎁 I saw a reel on Instagram and went from there. The little cards tucked in have a brief description of why I chose the book for my friend. It would be cute to tuck a bookmark in instead (noting that for next time).

AmyG You did a great job! So lovely. I have been watching these IG videos, too. Yet, I have nothing to wrap (we don‘t celebrate Christmas). 3y
MeganAnn Very cute! 👏🏻😍I keep seeing these reels on IG and Pinterest also, but forget to try it when I‘m actually in the midst of wrapping. A bookmark tucked in would be adorable! 3y

Kind of pathetic but this is less about wrapping and more about the wrapping paper. I‘m ready with supplies, but lacking in gifts. ☺️ I work well under the gun lol. #TeamGameSleighers #WinterGames2021 #festivephotochallenge

Pre-Christmas photo I didn‘t have time to post. One of my traditions is to marathon Christmas movies while I wrap everything. So that‘s what I did on the 23rd. These are the books I bought one of my nieces. I gifted only one other book this year, on Natural Soapmaking for my oldest niece. #HolidayTradition #WinterGames #TeamFestivus

Only for my #teamelectricsex would I take a selfie looking this bad. (I am not seeking compliments. Still looks better than the pictures Josh normally takes.

I am wrapping set 1 of the books I bought for my nephews. 6 books to be wrapped. The 4 you can see and the 2 Popular MMOs books in hardcover. It's really not hard to read the Popular MMO books before I wrap them, but If I don't do it now I might never.

LibrarianRyan Yes that is a llama behind my head. 5y
ljuliel Ryan, you are a hoot 😂. You look just fine to me. Very cute. I wouldn‘t do a selfie if it became a law in our country that you had to . I think I look okey dokey , but I‘m not going to put my picture online. I‘m afraid if I did, someone would copy it, and next thing I know, they‘d have rumors online that I was George Clooney‘s new SQUEEZE . I don‘t want reporters showing up at my door. I value my privacy too much. 🤨 5y
LibrarianRyan @ljuliel Well, I might not mind if they said I was Clooney's love interest. But it would make me fell bad for his lovely wife. 5y
ljuliel I figure she‘s pretty tough and can handle it. He sorta looks like the flirty type, so she‘s probably used to it. 5y

Anyone else doing last minute wrapping? I‘m trying and Sam is getting in the way big time, making this so much harder.
