I am going to AW my H.

He deserves it. Usually because on here I just b*tch about his workaholic tendencies.

All of my immediate and some of my extended family is coming down for an early Christmas next weekend. One of the bigger cities nearby has a park all lit up for Christmas and it's amazing. We wanted to take everyone there.

I was discussing the logistics of all of us getting there, staying together, who was riding with who, it's a 40 minute drive etc. with H last night.

He gets really quiet and says to me, "I got it covered. You know "Joe" the former dairy farmer, the guy who chops corn for me and drives limo bus on the side? I called him when you were at work the other day. He's picking us all up at 6:00."


Then H looks at me and says, "I work way too damn hard not to have a little fun once in awhile. I also thought it'd be a fun add on gift for the family rather than buying a bunch of extra throw in crap no one really needs."

And goes back to the TV like this is no big deal.

This from the man, who has been wearing the same socks with holes since last Christmas and has them on his list this year, because he's too cheap and practical to just go to Target and buy some.

;D :heart:

That is both awesome and hilarious.

Boys are weird. From my experience, they practically expect a parade in their honor for doing something that you do every day, but when they do something truly parade worthy they act like it is nothing....sort of an 'oh, btw' kind of thing.

True. True. It wasn't a half hour later and he got up to unpack the dishwasher for me and he was all proud and going on about how, "I remember where everything went!" Really man...we've lived here 7 years I think you know where the spoons go by now.
