My gifts to him
Kelly asked what I did for Brad’s birthday in response to the awesome gift he made me for mine. I think she said something like “You owe him something good,” which ya know, no pressure or anything. Well I’d say I did pretty good. A long time ago I started a project for him, and then I forgot about it for a couple years. A few months ago I finally pulled it out again, and on his birthday he got this:
It’s a homemade Batman quilt! Now come on, that’s pretty frickin’ awesome. I also bought him dinner and took him to Coldstone for ice cream. But since the quilt was a long-time in the making, and his birthday was just an excuse to finally finish and give it to him, his real present was this:
On Friday night we went to Detroit for the Pistons game. Remember when he got me the jersey to wear for the occasion? I was yards away from Rasheed Wallace and I still don’t think he even noticed me. Jerk.
We had fun though. Happy birthday again babe.

If you ever break up with Brad, how about going out with me? Seriously, you give great gifts.
Tomorrow, my dear, you will be featured on my bloggy blog. Look for it around noon-time!

The quilt is awesome. It was completely unexpected and it’s big enough for me! It will be keeping me warm in these last few days (hopefully) of cooler weather.
And the game was super-duper fun. We had plenty of time to bum around the Palace of Auburn Hills, and we had good seats and the Pistons won convincingly. And Walter Herrmann scored! You can’t ask for more than that.
Thanks babe!

What an amazing quilt! I always wished I had the patience/talent to do something like that. It must give you a great sense of satisfaction. Brad’s a lucky guy!
