My favorite Christmas present

Even though I got so spoiled this year with gift certificates, new purses (yes, plural!), makeup, hair accessories, crafting supplies, video games, and a LAPTOP my favorite gift of all time is my new boxer puppy! Not only is he the most amazing and adorable puppy, we have a great story!

A week before Christmas my dad called me on Sunday morning and told me to get ready because he needed help picking out a gift for mom. He picked me up 20 minutes later and we headed off. After driving for about 10 minutes I realized that I had no idea where we were but I was pretty sure we were headed further into a residential community. I didn't ask where we were headed, conversation with dad is too precious to worry about the destination. My dad is a very wise man and I always love hearing what he has to say. All of the sudden dad turned right on to a street with nice houses and yards. I looked to the left and there was the cutest little boxer pup walking around a Florida December lawn (which is still quite green if you are lucky!) I pointed him out to dad and he said "Merry Christmas, Laci. He is yours!" I just started bawling, I could not believe my ears. I was so shocked it took me a minutes to collect myself. I got out of the truck still crying and the momma dog owner was taken by surprise as she had no idea the puppy was a secret. I picked him up and I didn't put him down until I introduced him to the family! He is such a beautiful and smart dog and he has stolen my heart!
