SHHHHHHH…..

Ok… I am the WORST at keeping presents, or fun exciting things secret. I think I have surprised my hubby once in the past 6 years seriously.. I just cant control my excitement. Even when it comes to Christmas presents, I cant keep those a secret. I try to get my sisters and my mom to open them early and normally I just give my hubs his early. Haha I know its so sad! I keep telling myself that when I get preggo I am going to tell my family in some elaborate super cute way, but deep down I know I will be calling them all immediately haha! BUT I have kept the present I an getting my hubs for our one year a secret for months and I am keeping my lips sealed for 11 more days! I am VERY proud of myself! haha. Am I alone on this, or are there more of you out there that are just like me haha
On another note, I am IMPOSSIBLE, to surprise. My hubby calls me Sherlock Holmes because I figure out EVERYTHING. I don’t know if its good intuition, good snooping, or maybe i am just physic haha. (kidding) Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE surprises and I really do love surprising people, it just may not be on the day its supposed to be haha

and YES that is a Christmas Tree…. and YES I know its not even Thanksgiving yet… and YES I know I am crazy haha, but hey… 30 days just isn’t long enough to have my three gorgeous trees up. : )

XOXO

    Girl, we have the game Saturday and a party Saturday night, and my tree's are going up on SUNDAY!! That's RIGHT! It's TIME!!!!

    And I am HORRIBLE about keeping secrets!!!

  2. Sarah

    WAIT!!!!! thats a current photo with your tree up? are you kidding me, I want mine up so bad I thought I was the only one who would put a tree up now, but my hubs will have no part of it

    You and me both! I always make Jarrod open his Christmas presents early because I can't stand it…and I am sooo snoopy. I WANT to be surprised, but I always snoop. He did get me good once – real good – surprise weekend in NYC. I found out where we were going (He told me DC.), but I had no idea he set up a Sex and the City tour, got tickets to a Broadway show, etc…he done good that time. I'm a tough one to surprise and keep surprises, too. 🙂

    You are so cute! It's so sweet you are surprising your Hubby!

    As for the Christmas tree, we do a "tropical tree" every year. We have palm leaves, oranges, flamingos, and mermaids on it – with King Triton sitting on top! It's so fun! I have also been known to set up my tree a good 2 months early -eek! LOVE IT 🙂

    I'm sooo just like you. I can't keep a surprise/gift for anything. I try hard but just can't wait! LOVE that you already have the tree up. AWESOME!!! I soo would have my tree up but my hubby won't let me. SAD!!

    I am the WORST when it comes to secrets and presents! On christmas day I have to bite my nails and make everyone open my presents first bc i'm dying to see their reactions! and I cannot keep present secrets from the Mr!! I usually just have to give it to him early!!!

  7. Kirsten

    So in the same boat. Everyone thought it was miraculous that M was able to surprise me with the engagement, typically I pick up on those things, like all my birthday and X-mas presents past.

  8. Lauren

    haha!!! Can't believe you already have your tree up…it's definitely crossed my mind but I think Hubby would put his foot down on that issue!

    I love presents & giving them so I definitely try to keep great secrets! I like to think I'm pretty good at it…however, Hubby said he could never surprise me…I even had some inclination the night he proposed! Part of me hates it, because I LOVE suprirses!

    Never too early to start anything! Love it!

    I am the same way, my husband's b-day was yesterday, I gave him his gift on Sat. the day before his b-day party on Sunday. I just couldn't wait.
    HAHA! 🙂

    oh my goodness we are one in the same…i ALWAYS try to get folks to let them have me tell them what i got themm…or just open it!!! hahaha…i hate suspense!!! and YES i always figure everything out…either by being a snoop or just having a gut feeling…and yep ALWAYS right…hahaha…

    can't wait to see what the surprise is!

  11. Simply Me

    xoxo

    I also can't keep a secret! I will more than likely tell you what I got you for a gift because I simply can't wait! And I also wanted to tell people in cute ways that we were pregnant, but nope, couldn't wait!

  13. Maggie

    I am the EXACT same way, Tara. No one can surprise me because I figure everything out. And I love to surprise others, and IF I can wait until the right time, I can usually surprise anyone – but alas, I get so excited I usually end up just spilling the beans early. =) Oh well, what's a girl like us to do? haha

    Love your tree!!! =) And Sadie too… it's only a matter of DAYS before I come home with a new puppy. Days I tell ya. haha, this might just be my next surprise to my hubby. But that secret is just between us girls FOR NOW, LOL.

  14. Annie

    me too, me too!! guess we're not alone girly!! looks like lots of ladies have our problem 😉
    anytime i get my fiance something i make him have it right away because i can't keep secrets and surprises give me anxiety!! 😉

  15. Rachel

    Yeah I planned a whole weekend for BFs birthday in May. And it was supposed to be a surprise, and I told him! I just couldn't contain myself! 🙂

  16. Risley and Dylan

    How funny! Im totally the same way! I usualy have to scramble to find something for my mom around Christmas, cause through the year if I find something I have to give it to her right away!
    On my last girls weekend in Scottsdale, I called my hubby to tell him what I bought him! My friends were like, just wait till you get home!
    UGH! I CANT!!
