[blueberry muffins and...]

blueberry1
On Monday we celebrated Jon's birthday. We started the day off with blueberry spice muffins, bacon and eggs and then proceeded on to gifts. Little A was very excited about this. I asked him what he wanted to give daddy and he said, "A big box! and then we can say Happy Birthday!"

So a big red box it was - complete with finger print cards from the littles (littla A turned his into a monster).

I made Jon a custom Shakespeare poster cataloging the Shakespeare roles Jon has played as well as a few famous Shakespeare quotes. After a wonderful morning we drove up the coast and found ourselves in Santa Barbara. What a marvelous day it was. Thanks Jon for having a birthday and for sharing it with us!

*Oh and thanks for all the hair advice. You guys are awesome!

    is there any way that can make it to your shop? pretty please with sugar and sprinkles on top.

    i'm with desbisoux - beautiful box and hooray for customised presents. i recently customised a monopoly board for my boyfriend's birthday.

    each property was a surf break from around the worl. with different colours representing different countries. boardwalk/mayfair was 'pipe'. stations were ski resorts [for that year round thing]. fun!
