Santa Came Early

Okay, it was me, not Santa.  I splurged on us.  I didn't tell the husband what I did until I picked it up.  I wasn't going to tell him then but I needed help gettin' it in the house!  So it was an early surprise.

So what did I get....a FORTY-TWO inch TV!!  I know some of y'all don't do TV so you probably won't get it but we love it!  The husband was so excited.  We've only ever had a 19".  So this one is just huge to us.  We plan to eventually mount it on the wall where the mirror is.  Cause I have pictures and junk that need to go back on my cabinet.  (With a 19", there was plenty of extra room on there!)


Both the husband and I kept repeating, "Man, that's a big TV."  Even Harley was in awe...


Don't think he knew what that enormous glowing box was.  Plus we have a small house.  And our living room is very cozy.  I'm standing in the "dining area" when I took this picture.  So the new TV is like being at a movie theater!


Just need some popcorn now!

Wow! I wish we had a new tv. The Hunter just waits for someone to upgrade and then we get hand me downs.
Merry Christmas.

LOL We love our big TV!!! Our first flat TV was a 42"plasma, it went out and we got a 46"!! LOL LCD this time! Enjoy!!

I am a believer in the Mack Daddy TV. I think our living room one is a 56 inch. The spare room is a 32 and I need to buy another one for the master bedroom, but the old one wont die!

What do you use more than a TV? Nothing, at least I do not.

What a super early present!

May you have much joy in sharing that big screen...I would have to have popcorn, too.

Merry Christmas!

Cool, I kept telling the hubby that we needed one of those (not that big but close!) He kept telling me no, then he went to a couple of the families homes that have one and then went to our house to watch our TV and realize, hmmm maybe we do need a new one ;-)

Mama Mess said...

Whoo hoo! That's a big tv! And girl your cabinet is gorgeous! I'd like to see more pictures of it!

Is that a Cowboy's game I see glowing on that new tv?

Have a wonderful Christmas girl!

Merry Christmas, indeed! Hope you all enjoy it.

Make sure Harley doesn't get addicted to Animal Planet

Linda said...

Nice.....REAL nice! Merry Christmas to you all and all the very best in 2011.

WHOA! Just LOOK at that baby! It's gonna look good when you get it all wall-mounted and everything, and then you can have even MORE room on the cabinet for your treasures... so it's a win-win!
I 'upgraded' to a 42" a few weeks back and I don't regret spending most of the Christmas money on myself this year! (well, the Old Guy did chip in a little, but then again he watches more tv at my house than he does at his own!)

Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS, and I'm wishing you and George all the Blessings, Joy and Peace of the holiday season!
Oh... and popcorn too! ;)

Great christmas gift ya'll have there. I wanna flat screen for our bedroom. Our T.v. in our bedroom is the same 25 inch big bulky t.v we bought new 17years ago..Lol.
Love your cowhide rug and pillows...reminds me of my home a bit. You can tell we are some true Texas gals!
Merry Christmas, enjoy ya'lls new t.v.!

Nicole said...

wow that's awesome! You'll love it! Now you just need surround sound and you've got yourself a home movie theater. I have popcorn I could send your way... the daughter got it for Halloween and none of us have touched it (it's the microwave pop kind so its still good ;))

Hope you had a GREAT Christmas!

I admit, I am quite into TV, but I don't think I've ever had one quite that large - it must feel like you're inside the shows while watching!

Love it! We bought ourselves a 42" TV for Christmas as well! We only had an older 27" box tv, so we think it's huge as well! :-) congrats to y'all!
