Mail Bag and Birthday Gifts!

This morning while Kade and I were getting ready to go to Cocoa Club at the library, we decided to take some pictures of his new mail bag. Kade wanted a bag like the girls have at school but I wanted to do something a little different. I have such a hard time finding cool projects for little boys but love this bag I just made Kade. I'm going to type up the pattern and have it for sale on Ravelry.







And, when we got home I had a birthday surprise in the bedroom! Alex found this wonderful handmade and hand painted blanket box at the Re-Store in town. It is very lovely and will go great at the end our bed when we have a bigger bedroom. For now, it will live on the living room and hold our blankets.

Some may not find this a very romantic birthday gift but I do! Alex knows how much I love handmade goods and it's nice to build our life together! I'm very excited!
