So I gave it to the Queen!

After waiting and waiting I could not stand it anymore. I gave my wife her new Submariner tonight!

She was SHOCKED and thrilled!

She has been a great sport these last 9 months carrying our twins! Now we just need those suckers to drop!

Her reaction was " I"m never going to take it off!"

I'm just like you Matt, I love surprises but I have a hard time waiting to give the gift. When I picked up my wifes engagement ring 19 years ago, I had to give it to her that night.

You are an awesome husband...congrats!!
