I've been lusting after the inflatable Santa with flamingo reindeers forever. Last year, Bealls (Florida's Department Store, wahhhhh) put them on sale. Seriously on sale. And TW surprised me by ordering one. Except she accidentally ordered two. I didn't open either box. Christmas was finished, it made no sense to open the box(es) just to set it up AFTER Christmas.
When we moved to Illinois, we tossed both boxes onto the truck and I sort of forgot about them for awhile. As it got colder and colder and the snow got deeper and deeper, I started thinking more about those inflatable flamingos. I was really happy to carry one of the boxes into the house when I brought the rest of the Christmas decorations into the house over the weekend.
I thought we might get my flamingos inflated over the weekend, but we didn't. I thought we might get them inflated yesterday, but another snowstorm hit so we didn't.
Tonight, the little kids decorated the tree and the house and it was havoc. I hid in the back room for awhile because it was just too crazy and I really was trying to get a wee bit more work done. When I came out, TW had inflated last year's gift on the front porch.
I love it. Love it. Love it. Love it.
We need two more long extension cords so we can put them both on the front lawn, not the front porch.
TW always knows the perfect gift - and when to give it.
