One song that just cracks me up is “I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”.
And of course it is such a catchy song that it kept getting stuck in my head. I went all around both work and home singing this song. I’ll bet I was every bit annoying!
Since Christmas Eve was Saturday we got Friday off {one of our paid holidays}. We ran a few errands and then went to my mom and dad’s house to pick up presents to bring to our house. When we got home there was a note on the front door saying Fedex had left a package. Hubs just grinned and wouldn’t tell me what it was other than, “a present”.
So I went on about my business carrying stuff in the house and placing presents under the tree. Hubs walks in and says, “I can’t wait any longer, you’re getting a present early.”
Um…. OK…….

| Not gonna lie, I was a little nervous something was going to jump out at me… |

| Of course, it was a Hippo… I should have guessed, right?!?! |

| Isn’t he cute! |

| I got my Hippopotamus!! |
So the next day {Christmas Day} I was walking around singing Alvin & the Chipmunks, Please Christmas Don’t be Late. I was singing the part about wanting a Hula Hoop… hahaha… Wonder what’ll show up next Christmas… j/k Hubs… I don’t need one! 🙂 Although it might be a good, fun workout… Oh well, Christmas is over 🙂

I recall myself singing about wanting a hippo a couple times as well! But, I didn't get one. Don't really need one either. However!!…I wouldn't mind seeing one in person somewhere, on a safari or something. 🙂

That's a good man! I want one of those hippos that fart like Abby has on NCIS!
