See you next spring!

Remember last Friday when I told you about my fabulous Keurig coffee maker, which was my birthday present?  Well, it turns out, that wasn’t my birthday present at all. 

Sunday morning Alivia opened her birthday presents, and I wasn’t really expecting anything because Hello!  Keurig!  But, then Shawn went downstairs and came up with 3 more gifts.  The first two were from Alivia and Lainey, a necklace and earrings they had picked out at the mall on Saturday.

The third one Shawn handed to me and said it was from all of them.  It was kind of heavy, but I knew it was too small to be the stripper pole that I asked for.  So, if it wasn’t the pole, what was it?  Does anyone remember what the other item was I asked for?  Anyone? 

Is the suspense killing you?  Maybe I should wait until tomorrow to tell you?  Ok, ok, it was this:

I’m not going to lie.  When I opened it, my jaw dropped and I said “Oh. My. God.  Did you steal this?”  For real.  That’s what I said!  Is my husband amazeballs, or what?  A Keurig and a laptop, my life is complete!  Since it’s getting cold here in Michigan, I just might move the Keurig to my bedroom and with my laptop by my side, I can go into hibernation.  See you next spring!

Awesome! My husband got me a netbook for Christmas last year...and it's been my BFF ever since. Between my fabulous camera and netbook over the last year I'm not expecting anything for my bday next week...I'm just hoping for a night out:)

Good work on the birthday loot!!! Is your laptop purple too? How very stylish of you if it is? Sometime when you come visit, we can take our computers to trendy coffee shops and sit there "writing screenplays" while drinking our lattes.

Isn't that what everyone used to say they were doing with laptops at coffee shops? Or am I making that up?

You lucky ducky you!

Dearest and I just went to a {really nice} mall near our hometown on Sunday. We walked into the Apple store and I spent the entire time drooling over EVERYTHING. So, my next quest is to save up for 15 years to afford an Apple computer!

OMG! I am super jealous right now!!! I did get a pandora bracelet for Mother's Day but that is about the best that the hubs has done for me. He is not a present person at all.
