I ordered mine, waited and waited, and they arrived today. I was so excited!!! Only to open the box and find that my pics, which were taken with a 10.1 megapixel camera were grainy. And orange. That's right - every one of my children has orange skin. I popped those suckers RIGHT BACK in the FedEx box and shipped them back. And now, I'm starting over on the Christmas card hunt. I hope my experience can save some other people from the same fate! Just in case any other readers were tempted to use Dayspring for Christmas cards….DON’T!!!!

I ventured out and THEN I remembered why I don't like to shop on this particular day! Check out my blog to see the pics of the ridiculous parking lots I fought a spot for to get a total of 5 items on my list... BUT I saved about $100 between them all! NICE.

I guess our town isn't as bad as some places - that, and we were not looking for electronics. People aren't that ruthless over play-doh and foam swords... Thanks for reminding folks about the Dear Army Family cards. I have started getting some in, and it has been so heartwarming! we went out to the land of crazies… and it was so fun.

I can't keep from eating and then this houseload of people can't keep from using 3 towels at a time when they shower. It's a zoo but I love it.
