(and mine) I did not even snoop!
Lets rewind, a few months back. My husband stepped on my flatiron & broke it, but in his defense I think it was under a towel. I found it all mangled, plates broken, wires poking out! What a mess. So I gave him some crap about it. Whatever, I figured I would just get another one soon. Well time passed & I still had not replaced it. Then I used my sister's flatiron & it was great, it did not pull my hair- I loved it.
I had not been bothered by the fact, that I only had a curling iron until last week- when I got my hair done. And I knew the style I wanted to achieve could only be reached with a flatiron. So I called my sister & found out the brand of her flatiron that I liked so much. I was planning on buying it on Saturday, but I never made it to Sally's.
Sunday was the first day that I actually did my freshly cut hair. And it looked horrible after I had styled it with the curling iron. I was venting to Steve, about my frustrations of not having a flatiron. He said, maybe I will get you one for New Year's!? I said- New Years?! I am not even waiting until Christmas, I am buying one tomorrow!! He mumbled a few things & left the room. I could hear him rummaging in the basement. Then he came upstairs, handed me a box & said Merry Christmas!!
He bought me a flatiron for Christmas, how sweet! But the only thing I could think of, was that brand I was going to get- that did not pull my hair! So I asked him if he still had the receipt!! ( I am such a brat!!!) He said if I didn't like it, he would take it back. But he told me that he had done A LOT of research before he purchased this one. I tried it out, it worked out great & my hair looked fabulous!! Thank you honey, for the great gift! I LOVE IT!! :)

That is SO sweet! Seriously! Not only did he listen and know that you REALLY wanted it, but he sat down and RESEARCHED to make sure he got a good one! Way to go Steve!
I am literally laughing out loud picturing Steve mumbling and rummaging in the basement!!!! Oh, good times!
Congrats on the new flat iron! I need a new one as well. I've had mine for almost SIX years now!
Hahahaha! How funny :). I LOVE how guys try so hard to get the perfect presents for us. I always seem to ruin it somehow right before Christmas though by either going and buying it or torturing it out of Tim. I'm terrible. This year it was a diaper bag that I've wanted forever and I was gonna buy it with my Christmas bonus...but he had already bought it. Hopefully next year I'll be able to help him keep his secrets :)
