Surprises From a Wonderful Hubby

My darling husband is somewhat challenged in the gift giving department. He usually waits until the last minute to buy a present...and then it usually ends up being gift cards or something that I have picked out.
I thought it was strange that he hadn't asked me what I wanted for my birthday so I figured I was getting a gift card. Of course he has been teasing me that the Dyson was my birthday present...he even had "Happy birthday, Melissa!" put on the packing slip - LOL!
After we ate dinner tonight he had the kids go with him to the basement. They brought up cards that they had made for me, then Chase brought me a bag of Dove Dark Chocolates (my absolute favorite!) and McKenna brought me a box wrapped in Christmas wrapping paper - hee hee! I opened the box and was really surprised to see a really nice flat iron. I hadn't asked him for one, but had been complaining about how horrible mine is for a while now! He actually went to my hairdresser (completely on his own - WOW!) and bought one from her! I am really impressed that he actually thought to do that! (He really does listen to all of my complaining as we are getting ready in the mornings! LOL!)
Here's a link to my new flatiron in case you are interested: http://www.folica.com/GHD_Hair_Straig_d1936.html
Oh, and he wanted to give it to me tonight so that I could use it tomorrow. How thoughtful is that???
