Why I looooooove my hubby!!!

[Lori P]

OMG---- guys, this morning I ran out to the garage to find a hammer. Now, our garage is off to the side of the house and I rarely go out there; it's pretty much hubby's domain; I just rarely need to go out there for anything.

Well, the last two nights, he's been going out there after dinner, saying he had to get stuff ready for a big job he's working on (he's an electrician). And I've gone to bed early both nights with headaches.

This morning, I go out and see this big... thing... and walk around the front of it... and my jaw just hit the floor. I ran back in for the camera and got one quick shot... didn't want him to wake up and see I'd found his surprise.



He's making me a new enclosure for my 2 ball pythons!!! I've been pouring over the internet and ads for the last month, trying to find an affordable enclosure that was at least 4 x 2 x 2... (they're in a 55 gallon tank now and it's just too small) and been frustrated that I couldn't find one that was in my budget. I haven't measure this, but eyeing it, it looks 4 x 3 x really tall!!!!!! :-)

I never asked him to make me one because one, he's been so busy, and two, I really do wear him out with animal stuff... it's always honey, fix the fence, get me hay, fix the posts, build this, build that... and the animals are totally my thing, not his. He'd be thrilled if we had no animals, but, he totally tolerates them for me. So I was in no way going to ask him to build one more thing...

He's a good guy. I'm keeping him. This will be the best birthday present ever!!!!! (Well, at least, the best birthday present this year!!!! LOL) Just had to share because I'm bursting here!!!

WOW Lori that is sooooooooooooooooo COOOOL!!!! Very nice cage!!!

My bf has nothing to do with the animals here maybe the dog once in a while but I take care of the snakes, turtle, tortoise, toad, and the dog. He also would be happy if we just had the dog. Ohh well LOL

Awww Lori, what an awesome suprise... wow!!! Your Hubby is doing a great job!!

My hubby built my 2nd iguana a huge home... he made it so we can take it apart, & he has made a stand for my ball & other iguana.

Also he has built me & my daughter desks.

yeah - not only is he a good guy, I also knows how to build things and what kinds of things to build - definitely keep him

Lori, that is so special! Plus, once it's in the house it will be an everyday reminder that he does indeed love you. How sweet.

Very neat Lori. Hope it doesnt turn out to actually be a display case for his football trophy's !

[Lori P]

ROFLAMO!!!! Omg, Loren, you have NO IDEA how possible that is as he has a huge Green Bay collection that is his pride and joy.... oh crap!!!! LOLOL

Actually, as is usual for him, he couldn't wait for my actual birthday to show me. (He can never keep presents until the actual day... I have to MAKE him keep Christmas presents hidden! lol) He showed me last night and I was the perfectly surprised and over excited wife. :-)

And that's good, too, that he showed me now because we can finish planning it together. I just can't wait to get it all set up for the snakes. And yeah.... I already want another for the garters.... lol!
