| Awwww, I wish you wouldn't worry about that! Wrapping the gifts is not a requirement, and not everyone does it. I did a couple of things in my first GE I wished I could change too but in the end, I was the only one who really fretted over it.

| That's so true, don't give it a second thought. It just makes it all the better, the lucky pup and dig right into what they got, lol. Just enjoy the GE!

I am an GE Oldie (I think this is my 13th GE), so listen to "mama". The first rule of a successful GE is to HAVE FUN! GE's aren't about competition or comparison to what others are doing. It's about doing something special for someone else to make them smile. As long as you adhere to the GE Rules set forth by Admin, then there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON for you to feel bad about ANYTHING!!! Don't beat yourself up over what others did - if you like the ideas just file the idea away for the next exchange. | |

| I have mailed it out already. It went out Sunday but I think technically it went out Tuesday. My SB should get it today or tomorrow I think. I was having to travel a ways. |

| Just means your SB will get to the goodies quicker. Some are too impatient to unwrap the goodies, they want them NOW Beamer says the wrapping paper is only for us mommies. Your SB won't care that the goodies are unwrapped. Main point is to have fun
