The Gift Exchange

August is a very busy month for my family. We have several occasions to celebrate in August and it seems like there are festivities going on every weekend and a few during the week too. I really appreciate that I can order a gift from GiftTree and it arrives already gift wrapped. I get it delivered to my desk, but it arrives just as it would have if it had been shipped to anyone else.

Tonight after work, we are celebrating my mother-in-law’s birthday. She is a big coffee drinker so she is getting the Monogrammed Mug. It will be wrapped in a pretty aqua paper and tied with a brown ribbon. Tomorrow night we’re celebrating my parents 40th wedding anniversary. They’re getting the Amazing Grace Engravable Wind Chimes. My mom loves the song and they’ll like the chimes for their new home. I had it engraved with their names and the date of their wedding, August 17th, 1969. This gift will be wrapped in black and gold dragonfly paper and tied with a gold ribbon. It’s a very nice presentation.

I’m not a lazy person, just super busy. I don’t have extra time to spare for shopping and wrapping. I am tempted to purchase a greeting card kit to have here at the office so whenever I order a gift, I will be completely set. No need to go to the store for anything. Ah, sounds like a piece of cake!
