Monday Memories: I'm crafty, oh yeah

I would consider myself a pretty crafty person. Most of them women in my family are, with the exception of my mom. 

P & I officially started dating October 7, 2000. 
His birthday is November 17th. 
This is what I made for his 1st bday we were together. 
I just found it in the drawer in my guest room. 
We are 16 & 17 in all the photos. 

Along the border it says: 
"I just wanted you to know that you mean 
so much to me and I'm so lucky to have you in my life. 
Thanks 4 everything. I hope all your dreams and wishes come true." 

I think I'm going to reframe it and hang it in the kid's new playroom.

What fun! I think reframing it is a fantastic idea. I would have to agree that you are very crafty and creative. I don't think I ever did that for any of the boys I dated in high school - or college. Fun times!

(Even without knowing you or your families, I would bet that your husband's dreams and wishes did come true in marrying you, and in your children.)
