The search for presents is not going really well....
First of all...we barely had any yet...and the ones I did have, I am now having to ship off to Winnipeg...as Krystal ended up moving a month before planned..
and I hadn't done ANY shopping for her sisters yet....
Last night, we were going to go and look...but Kendal's aunt and uncle were in town, and we hadn't seen them for a long time, and so we decided to go with them for supper.
I thought that the malls would be open late...after all it is about 4 days till the big one...
BUT NO! The mall actually closed at 9pm.
Good thing we live in a city....

Fortunately Walmart is open 24 hours right now, so we did get some done.
However, not as much as I wanted...and so I am going to have to bring a sick baby shopping today again. (that should be fun...)
Every year I say I am going to shop all year and save myself the hassle...
I used to be really organized when the kids were small and by Christmas, usually had all that done...
Somehow the older they are...the less organized I am....
I'm not sure what that means...
How many of you are ready by the big day...and how many of you are last minute shoppers??

That is crazy that Wal Mart is open 24 hours. I did a bit of Wal Mart shopping this year, but most of the stuff I was able to get locally. The closest Wal Mart is in the next city 1 hour north. I am as ready as I will ever be. Have a great Christmas!
