My Guy

Where has this month gone? I really thought I had posted my last blog last week. It's been a busy, great month though!

Yesterday was my Bday and boy, did I get spoiled! I have the best hubby in the world. You know it's going to be a good day when you see this waiting for you! Nothing bad comes in a bakery box!

I KNOW you want to see inside the box!! Jon wanted to drive all over Houston to all my favorite cupcake places, but I finally talked him into going to one place. Remember I don't like to shop?

We also went to the mall to upgrade my phone to the iphone 4. I told you I got spoiled! Then he dragged me over to Rocky Mountain Chocolate for a caramel apple fix. Mmmmmm . . . I have to clarify right now that all of these treats were NOT just for me! Not that I couldn't have eaten them all . . .

Some of you may know that my honey is a Renaissance Man. Well, his skills are multiply'n, let me tell you. A few weeks ago Grace got invited to a 50's party where the girls were going to dress in a poodle skirt if they wanted. I made a mental note and then quickly forgot until the invitation was in my hand the day before the party. Well, I had a full schedule that Friday and Saturday so I asked Jon if he thought he was going to be able to do it on such short notice. He took Gracie to get fabric Friday night and the next day when I got back from my meetings this is what greeted me:

When it was time to go to the party Grace came down with all sorts of new things on her little body. If it was me, I would have thought getting the skirt done would be a great accomplishment. Jon on the other hand got the skirt made AND accessories for the outfit: a belt, a bow for her hair, and made a baby blue monogram G (heat transfer) for her shirt!!

All the other ladies there were SO amazed that Jon had made the skirt that they were inspecting it and telling their husbands about it etc. Yeah, I got to brag about him!

PS As I write he's in there on the sewing machine adding pockets etc. to his camel back. I love that guy!
