He and I decided (well, I probably decided because I am bossy that way) that when we got married (15 years ago) we would give each other meaningful ornaments each year (yeah, gag, too cute). I stopped buying ornaments at about year five. I don't know what happened. I just got lazy. So even though it was my idea I bailed. Do you ever do that? I am glad he is keeping up the tradition. Here are some favorites I've gotten.
Here's last year's. I was getting ready to run my first marathon (looks just like me if I had hair that looked like chocolate icing, no fingers and an adorable red sweatsuit):
Emma's first Christmas:
Three years ago:
Our first married Christmas:
Amongst other favorite gifts this year was a Snuggie. Not just any Snuggie, but a designer one. With a leopard print. I like to wear it around the house with nothing on underneath. It is about 200 yards of fabric, so it is very sexy indeed. Pair it with some 5" spike heels and you are ready to go clubbing. I love how this picture makes my head look really small. I also love how I look like I should be singing in a choir or something:
And I told you how I love Kenny Chesney. So I got these panties ("buried treasure" and "surrender the Booty"):
Other than that, it was just cool running stuff (yes, I got the cheetah running skirt) and a sweet mini camcorder.
What was your favorite gift this year? Snuggie? Panties? Deodorant? KY?
Drinking: Yogi Tea
OMG! Thanks for making me laugh. That picture of you in the leopard print snuggie is classic!
ReplyDeleteI also love the ornaments; especially the Shut Up and Run one. Your hubbie sounds like a great guy to keep up the tradition; mine would have forgotten about that tradition years ago.
My favorite gift was, of course, my new bras. I wore both of them yesterday.
BTW-my in-laws, just sent me a gift card and I picked out the bras myself.
Beth,
ReplyDeleteI love the panties!! Especialy, "Surrender the Bootie"!
You are always funny! I love those pictures!
ReplyDeleteA designer snuggie...who knew there even was such a thing! I can only imagine the print snuggie and those panties...watch out hubbs!
I love the ornament! I wish my husband and I had a tradition like that :)
ReplyDeleteMy fave gift was running shoes. I still need to see my fam for Christmas in January :)
V funny! Hey, I just posted some of the podcasts I use for running!
ReplyDeleteThree cheers for the cheetah running skirt! Let's see...I got a helmet for Christmas. Apparently the hubby thinks that me running is dangerous and is making me wear it out. Ok, the latter is a lie, it's a snowboarding helmet. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
All I know is everyone got a snuggie but me. I mean, I totally made out this year, but still: no snuggie.
ReplyDeleteI really loved all the little tidbits of food and candy I got stuffed into my stocking that I spent the last 5 days eating ...
Love it! Thanks for sharing the pics. The ornament tradition is a good one. We all got snuggies, too!! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat just totally made me laugh - thanks!! You're the first I know that actually own a snuggie, I am honored to know you :).
ReplyDeleteLove it!! Snuggies are supposed to be oh-so warm. Enjoy it. When do we get pics of the cheetah running skirt? I got outfitted for cool weather running this year.
ReplyDeleteI want a picture when that Snuggie goes up in flames.
ReplyDeleteMy hubs and I also exchange ornaments each year. We also get the kiddies one of their own. My fave gist this year was my adjustable kettleball. Happy New Year!
ReplyDelete...sometimes I turn my robe around backwards and pretend its a snuggie, lol.
we get ornaments every year too...lately our kids have been making ornaments, those are the best...we had 2 Snuggies and a Slanket as gifts at our big family Christmas (we didn't get one)...my best gift? watching my kids open their gifts...
ReplyDeleteYour head does looks ridiculously tiny in that snuggie pic! What fun gifts.
ReplyDeleteWell...it wasn't a snuggie!
ReplyDeleteGot the coolest running jacket - but due to ice, snow, ice, slush and then some snow that froze into ice last night - haven't gotten to break it in yet!
Lovin' the little britches!
I love the ornaments. Your husband sounds lik a sweetie.
ReplyDeletethat shut up and run ornament is perfect for you!! Yay for a snuggie :)
ReplyDeletemy favorite gift was my dad's - he signed me up for my second half marathon!
ur hilarious! i love my new ipod touch and the vacation im going on oh and i cant forget my new bike! for sure some goodies!! happy new year
ReplyDeleteHow cute is Ken with the thoughtful ornaments! This year's is perfect.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got some other great gifts as well - that is one hot snuggie!
I tried the ornament idea, too and it didn't last. Now we just get an ornament any time we travel.
ReplyDeleteI'm wearing my snuggie right now!
LOVE THIS YEAR'S ORNAMENT!! That is very cool :) Mmm, a snuggie would be perfect right now! Happy New Year!!
ReplyDeleteOMG the leopard print snuggie . . . my husband got a Bucky Badger Red snuggie. Too funny.
ReplyDeleteBest gifts...new digi cam and my USB hub so all my computer stuff works and perhaps I'll keep a better blog.
ReplyDeleteBook of collected works of Dorothy Parker, fancy cigarette holder (I'm not, nor will I ever be a smoker...just love the holders -- there's something about gesturing while holding one that rocks), and an awesome, funky ring. That said, I'm a bit envious of the leopard snuggie.
ReplyDeletehaha I'm so jealous of your Snuggie! I was expecting to get one this past Christmas but alas, Santa must have put me on the naughty list because I didn't =(
