Remember last year, when Aaron made me the most beautiful wood/paper lantern for our first anniversary? So lovely. I use it everyday and it makes me smile. If you can believe it, I think he actually topped himself this year! He made me something that I have wanted for a long time. I am kind of still in shock over how incredible it is. Aaron made me a hope chest.
I know, right?! It's phenomenal! I can't believe he made this. It was a labor of love, for sure. He'd spend a few hours working on it every day, over several months. The best part is that he managed to keep it a secret.
The second anniversary is "cotton." I love that he took the theme and came up with something so creative. I am washing all of my favorite linens to put into my new chest.

Peas
We're harvesting peas like crazy over here. They're so pretty. I think we would have had more, but our trellis fell down and I never bothered fixing it. We built a very elaborate trellis with bamboo and duct tape and after the first big rain the duct tape decided to give (note to self: duct tape isn't the answer to all of life's problems). I've been a little preoccupied with school. But these lovelies were plump and begging to be picked when I found them.
In other garden news, I'm trying beans for the first time and they are in full bloom. Any tips? I can't remember if they are bush beans or not. Not sure what to do.
