Christmas and a Whole Lotta Love

One thing about Doug and me: We are discovering each other’s playful side. Tatum aside, we have a lot of fun.

These pics are a fun look inside of what we are learning about each other. The best part? We have so many sides to our relationship that we are like a decagon! What has one hundred sides? A centagon? OK, all kidding aside, our Christmas was a time just for us. To truly celebrate the year of 2016 and to put Jesus in the center.  We both did this for each other with our big gift. Wait and see!

First, I had to give him a hat. He tipped it off to me as a tribute to his very first visor. It’s true!! But, honestly, why would we cover his perfect hair!?  Well, it won’t always be that way, so hence, the hat. Plus, it’s the Cardinals. Maybe it will help them somehow!?? Geez.

He had fun with me teasing me into my big gift. I did receive a spiralizer which was on my list of wants and needs. Now I can make zoodles which promise to be good? He loved on me with pics and ….

Heating pads for my hands. The sweet guy researched all over and found these cool heating gel packs.


How sweet that he got these inventive packs for me!

Ok, so his gifts? A turtleneck because every man should have one! A Nike Golf shirt, and I got him his name engraved on a leather ESV Bible. I also got him some books for us to read together along with a devotional.

For me? Well, he was pretty sneaky. First, he surprised me with some nice clothes. Then a metal rod. He wrapped it so well, I could not get it open.

 

Finally, after HE did, (note heating pad is on me since I was cold), it said that my real gift was in the stocking on the mantle. Sneaky guy.

And OOOOOHHH!

I actually wanted this, but he got it!

It’s a Roberto Coin baby cross in white gold. I had seen it in Sedona months earlier, and he found it.

SO blessed and grateful!


Now the key….It is a reminder that the HOLY SPIRIT is working in our relationship at all times. This cross is close to my heart to remind both of us!

I shall wear it forever. I shall love Doug forever. I shall have Jesus in my heart and the Lord in my life forever.
