A BEEUTIFUL GIFT

Our very dear friend "D" joined us for a special event recently and she surprised us with a gift bag.  In it was this:

Her daughter "S", who we've known since she was in school, now she has flown the nest and is on her own, drew this picture of vintage style beehive artwork for us, complete with bees flying around.  So sweet that she took the time after work every night to create this for us.  And really cool, they even found a picture frame that was a shabby chic kind of honeycomb pattern.  We were very excited to get it and it will go in a special spot at the farm.  


We also love that she found a great gift bag to put it in that had a heavy hang tag.  It's made of wood with attached cord, so it's very much a lasting 'extra' gift.  We decided to hang it on the dining room cabinet knob.  The perfect spot!

It says "Eat, Drink and be Awesome".  

Yeah, I think we can handle the eat and drink part, we'll work on the awesome!

Thank you "D" and "S"!

  8. What a very thoughtful and nice gift. Be nice if the person that gave it to you signed and dated it as well. If not, maybe she would still be will to do so
