Love Means Never Having to Buy Your Own Wet Suit

Nothing says “LOVE” more than the gift of leisure. My very first gift from my husband (back when he was my boyfriend) was this wet suit. He REALLY wanted me to learn how to windsurf.

Wetsuit is the best gift ever. Celebrate leisure.

Isn’t it cute and girlie? It even says “pure girl.” Read my post “Wet Suit Dreams” for the full story.

        Well, it impressed me because I would never get on a surf board in my whole life. 🙂

    The perfect gift! It meant that he not only wanted you to enjoy one of his passions but also that he admired you as a strong athlete as well as being a “pure girl.”

    I love it – he gave you the gift of leisure and experience which is much better than ‘more stuff’. And he delivered it in pink 🎀

    Well, that’s some first gift, Terri. He obviously wanted you to join him in all parts of his life. I think it’s a first for me hearing that somebody got a wet-suit as a first gift. Good on him, and good for you for trying the sport. I bet you’ve never looked back?

      Thanks, Hugh! I think when I mentioned on our first date that I would like to try windsurfing, he fell in love right then and there 🙂

    I’m not that familiar with wet suits, but this wet suit looks ADORABLE!

    This made me smile. My hubs bought me a set of pink tools! There have been many evenings when we’ve gone to the local home improvement store, and then out for a quick dinner. For us, it’s more about being together and just doing stuff. He likes to say, “Nothin’ says ‘romance’ like hardware!”

      I’ve heard those pink tools are pretty sturdy, too! Fun!

    awww – he certainly picked the right woman didn’t he! I bet that wetsuit has been worn to death over the years (and yet you still have it!) Thanks for sharing on our #OTM link up ~ Leanne 🙂
