So when we got to my Dad's last week, Michael immediately asked Dad to take him on a 4 wheeler ride. Of course Dad was more than happy to grant his request, but Michael didnt have a hat/toboggan because the one we bought him a few weeks ago, was left at school. So my Dad gives him a bright orange John Deer hat (one that Dad wears hunting). So when they get back from their ride, Michael asks Dad where he got the hat, because he wants one. So Dad offers the hat to Michael, and I said "no, Grandpa will need his hat when he goes hunting next week. We will get you one when we get home". Michael was fine with that, and we left the next day to go visiting more family. We went back to Dad's a few days later, to pick up the tent, and Michael asks him again about the orange hat. Well now Dad tells him "Michael you wait here, and I will give you the hat". OMG...Michael was so happy...you would have thought that hat was the moon, and so he puts the hat on immediately. He wears it all the way home to NC (7 hours), even as he slept in the back seat for 5 hours. We get home and he goes to bed...with the hat still on. Next morning he wakes up, with the hat on...wears it all day while playing outside. He comes in at 5pm to shower, so we can go get some dinner. Immediately after his shower...he puts the hat back on, and wears it out to dinner! I asked him if Grandpa put superglue in the hat? Good news is, if he keeps wearing it 24/7, we can save some money on haircuts!!!
When we asked Michael what his favorite Christmas gifts were, he said "electric scooter, hat and tent".
Check out our pictures to see the Orange Hat.
