bdcard6Mommy, I love You  Happy Birthday  (that pretty much says it all :))

bdcard5One of my cards was a cute pig with a heart nose.

bdcard3I receive a really cute Vera Bradley bag from the Man.. and there was a card…

bdcard2This is what the inside of the card said…  "Rachel HIDE IT" 

You see when The Man bought this he thought he was giving special instructions to his oldest child #1 on the shipping LABEL. so when the package arrived, #1 would HIDE the package, he didn't realize he was signing a card.. for the present. 

bdcard12This card was from my sweet husband… and yes.. he knows how to get stuff done 😉

What is Suzani? Or Hey.. I Love this!

I like to give The Man a few hints.. on what I would like for Christmas.  I came across this new Vera Bradley pattern.. and I LOVE IT..

vera bradley Suzani

Vera Bradley Suzani pattern

I had never heard of the term Suzani before.  Did you know that Suzani is a type of embroidery?

You can find this HERE

The term Suzani means "needlework"–specifically, the exquisite silk thread embroidery panels made by Uzbek women. Traditionally this embroidery work began at the birth of a daughter and continued, with the help of family and friends, until the bride's dowry was complete.

LOVE THIS!

I would love to Vera Bradley's Suzani in the "Good Book Cover" or the "Accordion Wallet" or "The Metropolitian" (but it's kinda pricy) or the "Tech Case
