The Naughty Elf

Post Christmas Carnage
We had a $100 limit each this Christmas.  My defiant hubby bought a bunch of things from my Christmas list, all items I carefully considered - for UNDER $100 and STUFFED them in my stocking.  Then he wrapped some new garden clippers and attached them to the outside of a pair of amazing brown leather riding boots.  Just to throw me off.  He couldn't decide between boots so he bought me a second pair of black thigh high leather boots.  


And then he gave me a final gift that he prefaced with: "Don't be mad at me" It was a new SLR camera. Jerk. 


We went to Lake Louise yesterday for some winter wonderland fun and to try out the new camera.

Ice Castle - the kid in the yellow was bossing me around.  I was annoyed.
 
Ice Bar with Jagger luge - tempting.

Can we clone that jerky husband of yours?

Laura said...

Yeah, sure. Both of them can share their 2 for one home show tickets and Lee Valley electrical cord identifiers while I traipse around with my new boots and camera.

being over gifted is such a horrible problem to have. there's still time for me to return everything if you'd like.........or I can send it all to Heather.

Laura said...

Although I love the ice castle shots and the bossy kid annoyed face shot, you must post some pictures of the new boots too.
