He TOTALLY gets it:)

SO.... I collect bears.

I put them under the Christmas tree every year.

I wasn't going to do it this year.

Most of them were won by my former spouse at Lagoon, the Stampede

or whatever.

I threw some away when I moved out last year.

Put the rest in storage

And planned to throw them away...

eventually.

When I was ready.

And then my NEW spouse (I love you, baby!)

and I decided to decorate for Christmas this past week.

Went to the storage unit

And mice had gotten into one box of my bears:(

Didn't think I'd be as sad as I was.

We threw them away.

Then that very night,

Ken got me these!!!

Yay:) Starting all over again

With bears that look just us on our wedding day!!!

My colors were red, white and black

And these bears are a perfect way

To start our first Christmas together.

Isn't he great?

I love him.
