Celebrating Our First Chrsitmas Eve Together


I count my many blessings being with the love of my life, and eternal Sweetheart.

It is Christmas Eve. Our first together. We went shopping for some last minute things we didn't find to finish up our shopping for each other. Ron went in the truck and I went in the car. Yesterday, he went to one store, and text me while I shopped for him to see if I was done at Target. He said "take your time and I did. He suggested that could mean more goodies! Yea!

Yes!

He went out again while I stayed home to catch up on some gift wrapping and stocking stuffers for the kids. We were going to a family get-together at Shannon's house at 4:00.

Then I had a turn to go to the store to get a few more things for Ron. I only found one or two things from my list left to buy. I think it is done. All I have to do is wrap some of his and stuff his Christmas stocking. We couldn't find the ones I brought from Utah. We bought two more from Dollar Store. I know we will come across the ones we brought as soon as Christmas is over. That is how it is sometimes.

Ron teases me about having things for him that I already had before he came into the reality of my dreams. It was about planning ahead and having room for the man of my dreams with a nice denim shirt in the closet, a tie or two, a few more casual long sleeve size "L," shirts too. Also having new dishes for my future kitchen, tools, nose clippers, or aftershave cologne. And a myriad of other things too numerous to mention that were in my storage unit!!!

"You build it and he will come,"
was my mantra. A quote from "Field of Dreams."

It worked. What else can I say?
