Yes he does. And boy am I lucky. He pays attention! Like no one else has ever paid attention. My entire Christmas, so far (we’re not done yet- we have Christmas with his family on Friday and Christmas with his kids tonight) has been kitchen themed. And that doesn’t hurt the feelings of someone like me, who has mad skilz in the kitchen.
At Thanksgiving when we had Christmas with my family, My folks gave me us (Zach and I) a 17piece set of Cuisinart Stainless Steel Cookware. Needless to say I was excited about that! And my brother and his wife, graced us with some more roosters that watch the kitchen from the top of our cabinets. My sister bought me a digital photography book, so I can take better food pictures for this blog. Well, that and better pictures in general.
Then, on the eve of Christmas Eve, Zach had a KitchenAid Stand Mixer delivered for me, as well as under the cabinet puck lights, because I’d been asking for some. The mixer was a complete shock, as I couldn’t believe that he got me such a cool gift without me asking for it. How awesome is he? Super awesome. So I am now the proud owner of a silver KitchenAid Stand mixer.
I am really looking forward to getting the kids tonight, and seeing them dig into their stockings and open the gifts we purchased for them. I’ll also be using the mixer today to make Kelsey a banana cake. I made some jewelry for Zach’s great nieces whose names we drew in for the Gift Exchange. That gift making put me in the mood and had me designing another 9 pieces using the beads I bought in Vegas. I’ll be posting photos and prices on those pieces as soon as I can. Hopefully tomorrow. In the meantime I am glad that I’ve gotten to read about everyone else’s Christmases. I really mean to post some Christmas Memories that I had from when I was child, but the Blizzard had my mind elsewhere. Next year, maybe.
Did y’all get what you wanted for Christmas? Did you get a gift that thoroughly surprised you like I did? I’d love to hear all about it!
What a great post – made my day!
Lucky cowgirl and lucky cowboy too!
You both are absolutely adorable and I just love reading about your ranch adventures!
Have a great rest of the holidays ~ wish I could sample that banana cake! ;D

Nice gifts!! Jealous of the mixer!!
My fav. suprise gift this year was a camera tripod from my little bro! Totally unexpected from him!
I got a stand mixer too. Bless My Honey! All I had asked for was a new hand mixer. Hand mixer…stand mixer…sounds similar right? LOL
I had told The Man to go easy on the Christmas presents this year. I told him the LQ/4-horse he bought me in October was more than enough.

Wow it looks like you had a great christmas:) I am jealous, I would love all the nice cooking stuff all though unlike you I don’t have mad skilz, I just get by:) I am learning though so maybe someday I will get there:) Maybe it is all my tools in the kitchen that suck and not me! hee hee!!! Have a great new year!
You must have been a REALLY good girl this year! The best present I got this year was my Dyson vacuum!! The husband thought I was setting him up when I said I wanted a vacuum. He said “there is no way I am buying you a vacuum for Christmas!” So he bought it for me the day after! 🙂 It sure is a good lil sucker!
Your KitchenAid is Awesome! Like the silver as it will always go with everything.
I am not too into cooking, but I love baking and that mixer looks amazing! I want one!
Zach is a gem. I’m hoping all this family and Christmas cheer lifts your spirits.
Gorgeous blizzard photos. Of course, I liked the ones of the kitty.
I officially hate you. Ok not really. More like super duper jealous! There are all kinds of cool attachments you can get for that too. Enjoy!
I know how exciting new pots and pans are. I got some 3 yrs ago.
I have never had the luxary of using a mixer. I know they are supposed to be a fabulously expensive thing, so I am excited for you.
