Long Overdue

Thanks to those who went in with me to get Matt's new hammock. He is enjoying it every chance he gets (even watched a meteor shower around midnight in it last week - that is until he fell asleep. :-)) Here are the videos of when I gave it to him. By the way, it rained that day so I had to set it up in the garage.

If you're wondering why he doesn't seem too surprised, well, I kinda messed that up by accidentally charging the wrong account when I purchased the hammock. My husband is extremely faithful and responsible with our finances - if he wasn't I'd have us in some kind of hole by now I'm sure. But this also means that it is extremely hard to surprise him... when a charge came through for "hammocks.com" it sort of gave it away. I was really kicking myself around about this for a while, until I realized that he was going to enjoy the hammock just as much, and there were still a few elements of surprise left to the whole thing as you can see:


I had Ian calling it the "hippopotamus" for a long time because I knew if he said "hammock" in front of Caleb it would end up getting talked about in front of Matt. So much effort just to blow it myself... oh yeah... I'm not kicking myself around about it anymore...



Thanks again Nathan and Krissy, Mom and Dad Shade, Mom and Dad McElheny, Nana and Mac, you guys are awesome!
