So, I’m sure you’re saying to yourselves “oh, no, here she goes with more cat pictures!” But, no! This one isn’t cats.<\/p>\n

My hubby detests shopping. He even tried “…works too busy, I won’t have time to shop…” this year. I try not to be selfish but it would be a cold day in he!! before I would be all okey-dokey with “sorry, but you’re not having a Christmas this year because I’m too busy at work” and that is, basically, what my ears heard that day. Disclosure: I’ve been told by friends that I took that remark far too seriously and they’re baffled how, after 29 years together, I would for a moment believe that he would really do that to me! LOL!<\/em><\/p>\n

So, Mr. I-hate-shopping-especially-at-Christmas-time took a day off from work to do my shopping. That evening I got, “So, do you want one of your Christmas gifts???” When I got done laughing hysterically at that, he informed me that it was only “sort of” a gift since its for the house. Well, I certainly did not have to be asked a third time!<\/p>\n

Is that not just the most precious little Frosty you’ve ever seen?<\/p>\n

This shot cracks me up:<\/p>\n

He looks to be about 3 feet tall but if you look closely, he’s actually standing on the table, whereas the plant and other snow man are actually on <\/em>the floor.<\/p>\n

So, you’d better watch out, my little precious, you have yourself some darn cute competition hanging out in our house these days!<\/p>\n
