Well I really just had to post this as it will be talked about for ages in the family Christmas archives. I've been with my wife for 9 years now and while I feel like I have given some pretty thoughtful and meaningful gifts that I know she truly loves and is grateful for. Ah but this year will take cake. I shot my first elk and had her a bracelet made with 1 of my ivories in it. Now she truly loved this and I could feel the gratitude but this is not the story. There were 2 more that stole her heart and soul from me. Little back story. She is 10 years younger than me so while we connect and have a great time there are still plenty of generational differences. She didnt grow up with a lot of money so even still to this day she doesnt really expect to get to do things she asks to do. So present #1 she had mentioned going to a concert that was coming next year so of course I picked up some tickets and them in her stocking. As she is reading the tickets the tears begin to fall. That's right fellas next year I will get to see 30-40 year women scream there heads off like they were 15 again. Backstreet Boys here we come!! (That is unless i can talk 1 of her friends into going with her). Present #2 is supposed to be more of a gag gift given by my Mom. But as she opens and screams with excitement the tears start again. We have ourselves a magic robot that shall vacuum the house on it's own! That's right we are the proud recipients of a Roomba...ahh the little things in life. I did score a new pair of boots and a new scope but no tears were shed. Maybe 1 day
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
