Taylor and I completely surprised each other with our Christmas presents to one another this year. We waited until Christmas morning to open our gifts to one another. I woke up at 8am and immediately headed to turn the tree on, make some hot chocolate and separate our gifts before finally waking Taylor up and dragging him out of bed. I could not wait for him to open the gifts that I was so excited to have gotten him and I wanted to know what was inside my gifts as well. We sat on the floor like little kids and opened our gifts one at a time.
He started my Willow Tree Nativity that I have been telling him for a while that I wanted to start collecting one day. I actually used a gift card that I received from my Aunt Beth to get another piece to add to it the day after Christmas. So as of right now, all I need is the Creche and the Angel and my collection will be complete. I was/am so excited about it!! So excited, that I just actually put it up last night because I wanted to be able to enjoy it for a little while longer since I didn't get to put it out until Christmas day.
I also received my first "little blue box". I was just about speechless when I opened up the big box that he had wrapped it inside of. It is the most perfect necklace that I could ever imagine. I've had my eyes on it for years now and did not expect to ever actually own it. I have worn it every day since.. even to work with my scrubs. :)
I also got a new game for our Wii, some perfume and a gift card to my favorite store. He completely spoiled me and I could never express how thankful that I truly am for all of it. He loved all of his gifts that I had picked out. He got a few new Polo shirts, a new belt, a lens hood for his Canon camera lens, an orbital sander, Entourage Season 2-4 (since he got Season 5 from my mom) and a new XBox game that he's been playing constantly.
All and all, after we sat down and looked at everything that had been given to us this year.. we know that we have been blessed, spoiled and loved all at the same time. Our first Christmas together was incredible and truly one to remember!
