Cambria got some money for Christmas and all she wanted to buy with it was dog clothes :) so here is one of his many outfits!!!

Pauls SURPRISE!!!!

So in November I had decided that if I could pull it off I was going to buy Paul a fourwheeler for Christmas!!!It was going to be a huge task and Ididn't know if I would be able to pull it off. I am the worst surprise keeper, I get so excited and end up telling him without fail every year!!!! He had been wanting a new one for about a year now and he just kept putting it off because that is just how he is, he will put everything first before him.... which gave me all the more reason to want to do this.... he works hard and I just felt like he deserved it~!!!! WEll I went and pre approved for the loan had his friend Wayne meet me at vescos picked i out with some nice wheels and tires and *WaH lAh* it was done... now i just had aweek and a half of hell trying to keep it a secret.....
Well 2 days after I bought it Paul calls me up at work and said " so did you get a loan for something" Me ahhhhhh " ummmm no why would I have done something like that without you"
Paul well my buddy at work says he saw you at members first and we don't have an account there so all Ican think of is that you were getting a loan"

I was pretty sure I was doomed but after 2 days of playing it off, he finally decided that I had bought him a trip for us to go on:) SOOOO..... I took a picture of his 4 wheeler and wrapped that so it would look like it really was a trip!!!!

Christmas morning was the BEST!!!!! He was so surprised and I loved EVERY minute of it...... and now I definatly think I deserve wife of the year award LOL just kidding, but he has reminded me everyday how awesome I am LOL

He has taken every excuse to use the thing you can imagine, he is like alittle kid with it:)

Christmas morning!!!!!

Oh wow Christmas morning was so good..... Ihad really worried because it wasnt the best year financially, and the kids are getting older which means more expensive stuff.... I really was worried because Cambria only asked for and ipod, clothes, boots, jewelry, etc NO toys, so Iwas so afraid she would be disappointed when all she got was stuff like that... But in the end I worried for NOTHING!!! Cambria told me later that morning that it was "her best Christmas EVER and she got everything she EVER wanted" YAY I santa did good!!!! The kids woke up about 6:30, I was already kindof awake, so I just layed in bed and listened for a moment...

***********

Cambria: "braxton I think its christmas!!!!! (she runs downstairs) Yep santa drank our eggnogg!!"
Braxton: "did we get presents???"
Cambria :"let me go see..............BRAXTON WE DIDN'T GET COAL!!!!!" lol

And that is when they came barging into my room.... We had to wake Gunner up so he moved a little slower than the other 2 , they were all done opening presents and he still had like 10 to go:) Finally by the end he had caught on and realized he liked the stuff he was opening, when he was done opening his last one he said in the sweetest voice " more presents Please" Luckily we still had to head over to Pauls parents for breakfast and he would get one more...

Don't I look like a midget compared to pat??? LOL

Gunner has seen Pat plenty of times and not once been scared of him, but for some reason on christmas eve, he decided he was scared of him. So pat spent all night trying to make friends with Gun.. he kept lifting him up so he could touch the ceiling, and now every day Gunner wants me to lift him to the ceiling and when I tell him Ican't he tells me Pat can LOL
