jstorms Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 This weekend at Garden Ridge I saw a 20' Inflatable Snowman, he was awesome. In my mind cme the quote from Wayne's World, "You will be mine, oh yes, you will be mine."My wife's quote came louder and clearer as I stood at the base gazing heavenward at the bohemouth of Christmas decor, "You have absolutely no where to put this."Lucky for me I developed a serious and very painful neck injury. So much so that my wife softened up and suggested that we buy the 20' Christmas yard monument to lift my spirits, which it did. I love my wife.Purchased 20' Inflatable Snowman from Garden Ridge. He is HUGE! Of course we had to blow him up in the driveway just to make sure he is in good shape. It took a while to blow him up since it was 2 minutes before we noticed the hose was twisted shut and then even longer to realize the blower wasn't positioned right, but in the end the giant snowman rose to magestic full hieght and smiled down on our home.

CKSedg Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 That made me laugh! We addicts sure get excited about new decorations. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Showalter Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I love that video so much I showed my wife. She especially loved the comment as your wife answers your daughter's question in the driveway..."Yes, He had to have it".I should tell you my wife shared the video as a Facebook post. She announced that her husband would never, ever get this over the top with decorations...I thought she knew me better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Hamilton Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Cute video.I like this inflatable. Actually I like all of them. However, beware of your electric bill if you live in Northern california. PG&E rips us off out here by charging the highest rates in the nation.As much as I love inflatables, we stopped using them after the first year. A simple 7 foot tall item cost us $120 to run for the month of December! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownTown Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Great video... The kids were really cute, especially with them knowing what you bought without you having to tell them... Guess you'd been talking it up before the big buy... it put a smile on my face.D.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
