This blog entry is mainly for my Mother-in-law, Cheri. They were visiting a few weeks ago, and Cheri having the foresight that she does, decided to buy birthday presents for J and L since their birthday's are May and June. She was in the process of wrapping these presents before she left, when she ran into a snag. We had no scotch tape!! Now to Cheri, this was not acceptable!! So, I was reprimanded (not really)! Needless to say, she left without wrapping the presents, which is a bummer, because if any of you have ever gotten a present from her, or has seen under our tree at Christmas time, knows that the wrapping is probably the best part.
Not only did I not have scotch tape, but the only wrapping paper I had was Christmas paper. She wasn't happy with that either, but was willing to overlook it and deal with it. I think I moved down a few notches in her book then. Thus, I have seen the error of my ways, and realized the importance of always having "proper" wrapping paper and scotch tape on hand. I decided it needed to be one of those items for our year supply, so I went to Costco to stocked up. By the way, the reason I never have scotch tape is because my children use it for taping pictures on their walls, art projects, taping siblings to the wall, etc.

I'm impressed that you went and bought wrapping paper. When Mom comes to my house, she brings her own, knowing I will only have Christmas paper if any! You're so great!
The "Easter" picture is adoreable. I love the stairsteps!
