Boxes Shipped!

Yea!! The few boxes I had to ship before the holidays are safely in the post office's hands! I even remembered to ship a baby gift for dear friends whose baby will be born tomorrow!

Even though I had only 5 boxes total to ship, 2 of them were very large and meant that I had to take 2 trips into the post office. Thankfully, the line was short so the wait wasn't too bad.

I did decide, however, that the awesome deals I got on the actual gifts didn't make up for the cost of shipping! I purchased most of our gifts online this year, and had them shipped directly. If I can manage it, I will do ALL my shopping that way next year. I ended up with free shipping deals from all the online retailers I used, so the $60 I just spent at the post office to ship 5 boxes seems a little crazy.
