Finished with my wrapping today and decided to have a little fun. Anyone around in the 80's should get it. You might need to zoom in on the second picture.

Is it the stuffed animal? The photo in the snowman ornament?

I was definitely around then, but I can’t spot it.

Is that E.T.?? Fun!! I really need to get my hands on that movie and watch it again...I seem to recall making 1 or 2 of my kids watch it a long time ago and they didn't get into it at all (WHAAAAT???)!

And I bet you're recreating a scene from the movie...I vaguely recall him in a santa hat and something about a tree but it has to be close to 20 years since I watched it!

Yes, it is my stuffed ET. I thought my kid would find it funny, he just said, "Ma, I haven't seen the movie." Total mom failure.

I thought that was ET! Very timely, especially with the new Xfinity commercial. The attached video has more footage than the commercial that aired.

Well what are the odds?! A commercial just came on and two kids scream when E.T. pops out from behind a snowman. The dad comes running and E.T. says Elliot. The same Elliot from the movie. It says for more info go to xfinity.com. I might.

I think I didn't spot it, because the worst date of my life took me to see E.T. He spent the entire movie sitting at the edge of his seat, looking furious at the characters on the screen. It was a horrible night and the worst first date ever. Usually, when a guy tells you repeatedly that you're ugly, then he shouldn't ask for nookie when he drops you off. Being repeatedly insulted by a weirdo is kind of a turnoff.

I thought that the plush was a Pug - the hand looking paw-like to my perception-challenged brain.

I asked her where to get one and she said on Amazon, of course.. I have not looked yet, but can I get one? So cute! We watched ET for the first time about a month ago and she's doing a biography on Steven S... TFS

He's just been sitting around for years.

Your packages are gorgeous! It's my one Martha Stewart quality. I reuse the bows and tags every year.

Late to this thread, I know. I’m just amazed you’re totally done and ready for Christmas and it looks beautiful! I probably won’t even think about anything to do with Christmas until my kids get home from college a few days before. I dread the thought of pulling out all the Christmas stuff and definitely am not going to pull it out of the attic alone.

I dread the thought of pulling out all the Christmas stuff and definitely am not going to pull it out of the attic alone. I'm amazed too. We're leaving for a 11 day vacation right before Christmas and I didn't have a choice. My sons live in town and came over with the girlfriends who were all about decorating the tree. I put up the other decorations while they put this one together.

I saw him ET scared and made me cry in the theatre (I was 6). I was so heartbroken when they had him in the white tents.
We watched it in high school and I laughed my ass off when ET and Elliot get drunk.

I totally missed figuring out the 80s reference. I'm terrible at stuff like that.
But I would be remiss to not mention that your tree and packages are gorgeous. If that's your one Martha Stewart quality, you got it in spades.

Well if it’s any consolation that guy is now bald, impotent and lives in his moms basement because the only job he can get is at Best Buy.

I saw ET peeking out. I remember taking my 6 yo DD to see it in the theaters. We took Reeses pieces as our snack. Your packages are wrapped beautiful - great super power. I worked PT in gift wrap when I was in college, tough gig.

I worked PT in gift wrap when I was in college, tough gig. Me too in high school and college. I have to say having 12 rolls (all tearable) with great tape and limitless bows and ribbon was my dream. If I don't pinch the paper at the sides un fold under my edges, I feel like I am cheating.
