Step 1: addresses and postage on labels

Step 2: labels on envelopes

Step 3: things in envelopes, envelopes sealed

Step 4: envelopes on the porch for the postman (I made an appointment…after last year’s incident, I vowed we’d be doing it from home this year)

Step 5: feel just the tiniest bit bad for the post man

Rinse and repeat.  Another day or two, and they’ll be done!
