The Great Mother Red Hen

So Nathan told me last week that he had the best birthday present for me and I just needed to let him know when a good time was to go pick it out. Here are the hints that i gathered from what he told me...
- "You need to pick out what color you want."
- "Now, you won't be able to use it until we move out to the Route 40 house, but we can keep it in storage until we move.
- "I think they open and close at 7pm"

So that was the end of that conversation, and then we talked about it and figured out that we could go on Saturday morning before work. So I begged and pleaded for a few more hints... I finally resorted to letters.

"Tell me a letter that's in the word..."
"a."
"That's not a letter! That's a vowel!"
"Ok....*pause*...r."
"Babe, I DO NOT WANT A LAWN MOWER!"
"I'm not saying yes or no anymore!"
"There's no 'r' in Mac."
"Ha... yah."
"YOU'RE GETTING ME A GREAT DANE!!!!"
"Yeah right!"
" Recliner....Craftsmen? Babe, i don't need tools... Cuiesenart...."
"Go to bed!"
SIGH

So we woke up at 6am and got dressed for work. We jumped into the car and headed downtown... toward builders warehouse....UFS...*recliner-that i didnt want*.... and then we turned into the tractor supplies.
Passed the cowboy boots....no red ones btw... and HERE IS WHAT HE GOT ME.....



I basically have the best husband ever! They are the coolest... they smell... but they are cool! They will be out in the garage soon...but for now they are chillin' in the basement. Forrest is really not very happy about this...but she is handling it like any pompous, selfish, "i am better than the world" cat.

Then to day in an ode to Easter, I tried dying egg with neckties. It kind of worked... they looked pretty cool...

Here's hoping we'll be at our new house in about two weeks... but who knows... I'll post updated pictures soon.
