Christmas ideas for Hudson

For 2 years we celebrated Christmas in the tiniest townhouse with no yard. Now that we have a good amount of space and a huge backyard my ideas for Christmas gifts for Hudson are a little much.

My original idea was a trampoline but Jonathan shot that down. After talking with some friends and other people who have some very similar things, we found this...

A sports bouncy house!!!!!!!!!! I love this idea. Yes, it is an eye sore but so much safer than a trampoline. And it only takes about 1 minute to blow up and you just deflate it and pack it way when you are done. Love, love, love it.

I also found this


Seriously?!?!?! This is the coolest thing I have ever seen! Hudson is obsessed with all things firetruck. And it has a radio, microphone, sprayer & shovel. He would completely lose his mind.

Here in lies the problem. Together these gifts are about $750. That's a little much right? There is NO WAY Jonathan will ever let us spend that much money. Especially since I have already finished Santa's gift and he spent a pretty penny. Hudson is so fortunate to be so loved (and spoiled) by so many people. Our parents and families are always so, so generous and he always gets way too many things. Oh decisions, decisions.

Christmas is not about gifts and we try to make sure Hudson knows that. He loves to talk about Jesus and I know that his favorite gift will be the new fireman boots that Santa made him.... that child wears some form of rain boots everyday. But these are an investment that even his friends will want to come and play with. And what's better than a bouncy house for a birthday party?!?!
