wils ft. the wetsuit tragedy

Hi, and welcome back to another sappy post of love and appreciation for Samuel. 

Also known as WILS--Why I Love Sam.  Previous "wils" posts are here here here and here. 

So last weekend after a long, busy week of work and school; the sun was out, a nice 80 degrees, and we were both just so ready to go surfing for the first time of 2018! Like soooo pumped! 

see pic for reference:

We loaded up the party van with the gear and headed to the beach. It actually took a while to get there too because the crowds were out and finally ready to soak up the sun too. We get to the beach and realize my wetsuits are definitely not in the van, (the water is a good 60 degrees so I wasn't about to just hop on in) we probably left them at home duh! so a little frustrated at myself for waisting precious Saturday Sam time, we turned around and drove all the way back home to get them.

 After tearing apart the apartment searching everywhere (people our apartment is a good 700 square feet, not much room to hide or loose anything) we still can't find them! 

Long story short, we realize they had to have been stolen out of the van, bless the van's heart but that thing is old and not like Fort Knox so either we left a door unlocked or someone just craftily broke in.

You guys I was DEVASTATED! I probably bawled my eyes out for a good hour. 

And I know it's just stuff that can be replaced but 

1. That floral wetsuit WAS my most prized possession (besides my wedding ring). 

Pathetic I know but that thing brought me so much happiness.

2. Not only did my favorite wetsuit get stolen but so did my winter suit that I was supposed to wear and that thing was not cheap! $190 at least!

3. I got my floral wetsuit on sale in 2016 for $50 and it was last one available in that style.

4. Great, now I have to buy 2 new wetsuits when I already had them. DUMB!

Ok here's the best part, while I was bawling and feeling sorry for myself Sammy was scouring the internet for a replacement. I thought it would be hopeless to find the exact style and print because it's 2 years old and they come out with new styles every year. 

But you guys!! Look what came in the mail today! 

Sam is too good to me! Not only did he find the last one ever, in the whole entire internet world, it was my size!! And this is big for him because he HATES spending money. But he knows how to make me happy even though he spent $100 on a $50 wetsuit we used to own...Love him to pieces! 
And that my friends is Why I Love Sam.
