You are a good hubby!
I have to agree with your wife on the color. I have loved it since I saw it. She is going to love it make sure to get photos and post them.

Great present and I am sure you will be rewarded

What a fantastic idea! If there is a chance in hell please video the delivery and post it showing the surprise look on her face and the huge smile that is sure to follow.

I planned on mounting the GoPro to capture her reaction. Technology is our friend! It would be better if her Bday was the 4th, not the 24th, but oh well the wait begins!

Today is the day. Had to change the plan a little due to our travel schedule. I'm dropping it off at the place we are having dinner at tonight. She will go nuts before she even knows its hers. That's how much she's into this Carlisle Blue..

That's even a better plan than the after car wash surprise!!! Geez, you gotta have a photo op on this reaction! If you have to change a plan, it's even greater to come up with a better one!!! Congrats on ingenuity!!

You should tell her to take a picture or two with it, then slide it over to video on your phone and tape her reaction when you actually tell her.
