12 Days of Christmas: Days 1-4

I decided to do 12 Days of Christmas for the husband this year - and I've just had a blast planning and putting it all together. Tradition says that the 12 days starts on Christmas Day, but I started last Thursday, 12 days BEFORE Christmas.  Clear your throat and sing along -- the song is in the right side of the pictures...
 
A key to the house -- might sound kinda lame, but he was thrilled.  He hasn't had a house key for quite some time -- gave it to one of the kids -- and I've listened to him moan about it numerous times.  He loved his 1st Day of Christmas -- told me it was going to be hard to beat.

Two thermal shirts -- practical and needed.  He doesn't get overly excited about clothes -- but he appreciated these -- and wore one the day he got them.

Three fluid ounces -- well, okay, technically it was a little more than that -- 3.4 to be exact.  He hasn't worn cologne for several years - so I decided it was time.  After three outings to select a scent, I was afraid he might be getting suspicious because I came home each time smelling like men's cologne.  By the end of the third trip I had such a headache from all the smells that I finally quit smelling and went with the name -- and this one made me laugh, so it was the winner.  Lucky You!

Four ballpoint pens.  You know how pens are -- they disappear off a guy's desk right into a girl's purse.  What can I say?  He needed these -- because I haven't cleaned out my purse in a while. 
Check back later for more -- tomorrow is Day 5.

Colette, you do know that the 12 days of Christmas start on Dec 25 and end on Jan 6, don't you?

Aunt LN -- yes, I know. Look back at Day 1 -- I mentioned that it's supposed to start on Dec. 25, but I decided to do 12 days BEFORE Christmas.
