For as long as I can remember my mom has been crocheting blankets. The first one she made for me is pink and white strips. It is the size of a twin bed and was given to me at a very young age.
With each pregnancy my mom has us go out and pick out colors of yarn so she can make each baby their own blanket. The girls love that grandma made them their own special blanket.

Then a couple of weeks ago my mom surprised us with our own "couple" blanket. Scott and I have been married for almost 5 years now. (Anniversary coming up in May!) This blanket is huge. We have a queen size bed and this blanket is bigger than the bed. I love the colors she picked. And every time I look at it am reminded of all the hard work that went into making it. Right now it fold it in half and drap in over the end of the bed. It adds just the right touch to our room.
Have a great weekend!
