I was reading this article on yahoo today called "Sneeking A Peek and it made me laugh - it was saying that 1 in 5 adults sneak a peek at their Christmas gifts when no one's looking.
I can't say that I have that problem cause I know if I peeked I would have to fess up otherwise the guilt would get the best of me but I will admit that the curiosity kills me. Steve must get sick of all the questions I ask him about the gifts he's given me.
Last year after all my questions I had already figured out that it was getting a medium sized tan and white purse from his dad 2 weeks before Christmas. Of course I acted totally surprised when weeks later I FINALLY got to open my gift and it was just as I had imagined it. :)
So this year the questions started about 2 weeks ago and Steve has done such a good job about being sneaky. Last night he broke down though and declared that we each could open 1 gift from each other. I was almost scared to open mine cause I thought he might change his mind at the last minute just as I was getting ready to rip the wrapping paper off but I think the suspense about his gift was killing him as much as the suspense about my gift was killing me.
So we opened one of our gifts - his was a cool pub like sign with the Guinness logo on it (that's his favorite kind of beer) and mine was a Massaging Jet Foot Spa. We were both happy. Of course we know that Christmas isn't about getting gifts but it sure adds a little fun to the season!
I'm still secretly hoping that Steve will get some pergo flooring for us to put in the dining room. I know it's probably sad that for Christmas I want stuff to improve our home but it's just the way I am. Does that mean I'm getting old when all I want for Christmas is pergo flooring?
