I received some really amazing things that I really love for Christmas this year. A swarovski crystal snowflake ornament, a painted side table with drawers and lamp for the guest bedroom, a wii game, a hallmark ornament, flannel pajamas, a vera bradley purse, etc.
And, 14 K yellow gold 1/4 carat t.w. diamond hoop earrings. The Boy and I usually do not go all out on buying each other gifts. We usually spend only a modest amount. This is true for Christmas, birthdays, Valentine's Day, etc. This year though, The Boy surprised me with a bunch of lovely gifts plus an over-the-top pair of earrings. They are absolutely gorgeous. I was stunned when I opened the large box to find a small jewelry box inside. When I opened the smaller box I was speechless. "Go put them on!" he ordered. So I obliged. They are perfect. Exactly what I wanted, without even knowing I wanted them. He did a wonderful job and these are most definitely something I will cherish forever. It means a lot that he wanted to surprise me with something like this. He did not expect anything in return. It was enough for him just to see me so happy.
I had a very merry Christmas, indeed. I hope you did, too.
How did you spend your holidays? What was your favorite gift?
