i finished the hat (yay!) :) , but not before he returned
so i showed him the post below
he smiled (his very cute smile) and said that was even better
then he told me all about the volcano he climbed in mexico
and i listened and i knit. then i told him all about how owen has two new best friends, maggie and teddy! and how our oven stopped working and his cake came from the bakery. and i love this kind of catching up.
as soon as i was done, he put on his new hat and we went to dinner to celebrate his safe return and his birthday. on the way we made a stop to catch the sun just as it was setting into the ocean... :)

ReplyDeleteWhy are there banana slugs on his cake ;)
He does have beautiful blue eyes.
And the hat looks wonderful on him!

Beautiful Lori, you and your husband seem to have such a lovely connected relationship, you inspire me to do the same when times are tough xx Thankyou for your lovely comments on myblog today, I really appreciate it and I agree with you too, if the only thing I teach my children is kindness and love then I will be happy. Happy catching up with your hubby, so glad you got the hat done :)
ReplyDeleteThere is such a sweetness that is nearly tangible when you describe the two of you together. You're both so blessed to have one another!
ReplyDeleteWhy am I NOT surprised that you finished Chuck's "Purple Majesty" hat (almost) in time! It looks great on him and you can see the pride in his eyes!
ReplyDeleteA lovely birthday - from start to finish!
Love,
