Ok- that should be enough. I'm working on a scrapping project that was supposed to be for hubbie's birthday. Unfortunately I didn't finish it in time, but I'm going to surprise him with it anyway.
It's a memory box of all the road races he's done in the last year. I'm going to make a two sided board for each of the races and they'll fit into this box from his sneakers. As he does more races I'll add more boards.

I think I might decorate the box too.
And of course I've collected photo's from each race. Here are a few:

The Wicked Half Marathon in Salem MA. This was my husband's 1st half marathon. As if that wasn't amazing enough he also made the trip a little extra special by booking us into a historic hotel I've always wanted to stay in.

ReplyDeleteLucky man!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice surprise! I love that it fits in the sneaker box.
ReplyDeleteLooking at some of the places you've posted about, I have to think that we live not too far from each other.
What a wonderful surprise! I love it!
