Merry Christmas!

I hope everyone had a very MeRry ChRisTmAs!  I am still in shock that it's over, but I am thrilled to share with everyone the most thoughtful and amazing gift my husband made!  He was more excited to give me the gift than anything else this morning.  He even cried when he gave it to me! 

Since starting his new job and doing the graveyard shift I mentioned to him a few times that it's hard to sleep at night when he isn't there to cuddle with.  So apparently he conspired with some wonderful people and came up with an awesome gift!  I had no clue what was going on {other than he was gone hours on end at our neighbors}.  And hello, he is incredibly talented because he sewed it himself {who knew}!  

So without further delay...let me introduce....



Phil-In


He kinda reminds me of Shrek, but my husband was even so thoughtful as to make him match our room {brown, sage, and tan}.  Not only that, he even used the really soft minkee fabric.  And for extra measure, his arms are really long so I can wrap them around me!

On a side note, we made it home to Logan ALIVE!  We were getting a little nervous because the roads were REALLY bad and the snow was coming down so hard.  We even stopped to pull people out of the snow banks {thanks to our 4 wheel drive Land Rover}.  We came home to a TON of snow that hasn't been plowed yet.  In fact there is so much snow that we can basically walk right onto our second step on our porch the snow is that deep.  We love it though!
