X-mas Wonders and CSI

My wonderful husband is like a kid during the holidays. When he buys be something he will not hold off from giving it to me, especially when he goes to great lengths to find me something unquie. This year he was very giddy. SO, I opened the box and inside is a leather bound DVD binder. Upon closer expection it is signed by the whole CSI cast. Billy, George, Jorja, Eric, Marge, Gary, David, and Paul! Not only that, but on opening it, I found all five seasons of my dvds each signed by the cast member next to their character.

I stared dumbfounded. Since I've been so busy with my crazy hours , he "stole" my collection sent it fed ex,and I never noticed. I'm still in awe. Eric works with the cancer society and another organization that helps children's hospitals. Every year, they have these things set up where you "buy" signed items involving celebrities of some sort, and the money goes to a good cause. Last year I got the Lord of the Rings Director's cuts signed by Peter Jackson and Elijah, and Virgo.

This year, he sent my CSI dvd collection in, they signed it, and was fed ex back to us.

I don't have this to share with anyone since most of my friends don't watch the show, so I wanted to celebrate my squeal! Now I look at the gifts I bought him and whimper. This was such a surprising treat!!

This week has been Hell and the holidays are nothing but a big jumble of long work hours and a rushed trip to the airport on Sunday. This will keep me beaming for a long time.

Can I borrow your husband?

My man would never think of doing something so cool.
Even I would be found squeeing over a present like that. Might even find an emotional tear.

Well Eric asked that question, since its my entire dvd collection, but its in silver perm marker...and the binder is saf. The binder even has Wallace, with "I'm Hodges", written under it!

I was laughing so ahrd.

I'll be so nervous putting them in the player.

Could that be any cuter? Makes me love him even more. As if people wouldn't know who he is!

*SQUEEEEEEEEE*

What a fabulous (and creatively thoughtful) gift! So very, very excited for you.

I am the same way when giving gifts, I tend to get overexcited then try to give them Right Away. My hubby and family are just used to it so they won't let me and don't give in to me.

He won't let me say no, He just gets all excited over it. Plus, I'm sort of jaded slightyl so spreading the season around is okay in my book.

Oh, my God, what a wonderful husband! That so totally rocks. He's a definite keeper. And what a wonderful present.

He tries to one up himslef every year, its getting almost too tough to pull off. He got me signed Radiohead stuff two years ago...he's such a sweetie.

I think it makes up for the pain I went through to get him is xbox 360 xten!!

That was such an amazing thing to do...They get it every once in awhile, don't they? Today is our 9 month anniversary....we actually got married in Vegas (Stratosphere) and this morning, on my way to my car, my husband left a picture he had printed of our reception that we had a week after we got back from our wedding. It was all framed and everything...he worked on it this morning at 3AM. I think we both might have keepers!! Merry Christmas!

Oh my God, that sounds like a wonderful gift. You are such a lucky woman to have such a wonderful husband...

Kristen I'm a little late to the party but my God that was an awesome gift. You man sounds like one in a million. Now I have to ask - any more like him at home? And if so does he find a Scottish accent sexy? Oh well a girl can dream. Guess I'll just have to live vicariously through you. Hugs *you lucky girl* Lou:)
