-1999-
Our first Christmas was only like a month and a half after we got married.
So the funny story- So again it was our first Christmas and we were newly newlyweds and I was so excited to open our gifts!! I was thinking jewelry or something like that. Christmas morning we go to open all our gifts and Brian saved the "BIG" one for last. I was so excited!! I was taking the paper off and kept looking at him smiling, then my smile turned to a "what the crap" look. He got me a BREAD MAKER!! What, seriously. ya. Some might think that was nice but as an 18 year old newlywed making bread was the last thing I wanted to do. Anyways I started crying and he felt horrible and then I felt like a spoiled brat(which i was way back then).
It is now our 9th Christmas together and to this day he has not bought me any house hold appliances as a gift. I even asked for a dust buster this year and he laughed. So i bought myself one and it is wrapped under our tree right now:)
BUT.... he did learn and since then I have never ever been disappointed about any gift he has given me and actually have LOVED every gift since!!
