The Holiday day and an unexpected gift

Published on December 26, 2006 By InBloom In Blogging

Christmas Day has come and gone so fast. It just seemed to have hit me out of nowhere. I still feel like I should live the day all over again to make sure I reveled in it fully.

The Eve was spent opening gifts at my grandmother's at midnight. When we got home, my honey and I exchanged gifts. I got him a Steelers mug, some nice polo shirts, some DVDs, and a game called Golden Tee (home edition).

When it was time for me to open my gifts, he handed me a silver wrapped box that wasn't under the tree. He told me that instead of getting me several gifts that I would just like, he wanted to give me one gift I would Love. So this is what I unwrapped:

I was pretty much floored. We had seen them several times on ads and at stores, and even though I always said I wanted an ipod, the Zune definitely caught me eye. I mentioned that I wish I could get one, without thinking that I would anytime soon.
It is awesome...honey, you definitely surprised me.

It was my best gift physically...but (and yes, here goes the cheesiness) I loved that my honey and I got to spend yet another year together and I loved very much that I got to see my brother. Just to see his daughters' eyes light up when they saw him was wonderful. I only wish he could come and see them more often.

Hope everyone had a Wonderful Christmas day...or at least a wonderful day.

Donna, glad to hear you and your family enjoyed your Christmas. Also, it's cool that you are stylin' in your tshirt already.

It just goes by so fast, Trudy...I feel like grabbing a hold of it and saying, "Slow down there a minute..."

You're right, Doc...I guess it's not as "cheesy" as I thought...just words from the heart.
