Okay I am going insane keeping this in! I have to tell what I got my Richie for christmas!

He is a HUGH Arkansas Razorback fan and last Sunday they were selected to play in the Capital One Bowl in Orlando FL on NewYears Day! Well I bought us 2 tickets to the game!!!! We have hotel reservations in Orlando all set so we will leave on Dec 30 and head back Jan 2!!!!!!! I am beside myself trying to keep it a secret. I bought the cheap seats so we will probably be seated at the TOP of the stadium (assignments will be made on a bestavailable basis starting 12/18). I am just so excited about this. I think this is the most Fun gift I have ever given and he has NO IDEA!!!!!

Anyway thanks for letting me get this out!

Jewelry, art, baskets, etc.

Who is HUGH? is that the name of the hog mascot?

(just a good natured ribbing from a fellow SEC fan) I'd hide the tickets under a visor, sunglasses, flip flops and the suntan lotion in the gift box for those upper deck seats!

Just because it's Florida, doesn't mean it will be warm though. Make sure to pack some jeans and sweatshirts too!!! It's warmish this week, but it actually snowed in Orlando a couple of weeks ago!

I'm STILL keeping the secret! It has been hard! Only 11 more days of keeping my mouth shut! Tickets are supposed to be mailed 7-12 days in advance and I hope they get here by 12/24 so I can wrap up the tickets! That would be sooo cool!
