My birthday got stretched out at least a week, since my sister Shaunna & Keith left for Italy on the 21st. So we celebrated early by going to the Cheesecake Factory. Shaunna & Betty presented me with this awesome t-shirt quilt that I'd requested months ago. I was so surprised - I didn't expect it til Christmas! It's the coolest. I've numbered each square below so I can give the background on each nostalgic t-shirt.
1- These are some of my favorite flannel pants - little dogs and bones.
2- Just a fun t-shirt "Sunny California" to commemorate my mission.
3- One of my favorite most comfortable t-shirts - no idea if this school exists, but it's orange!
4- Oakley Networks - where I worked from '05-'06 and still have many friends.
5- My VH-1 I Love the 80s shirt.
6- Wells Fargo Health Benefit Services - where I've worked for three years today!
7- A t-shirt Shaunna made me after we attended our "dream show" of Chess in Concert with Josh Groban, Adam Pascal, Sutton Foster, Julie M..., and Carl Lewis. NYC '03. Seriously, one of the best shows I've ever been to!!
8- Claude Monet's gardens - Shaunna & I visited Monet's home in France while I was in London, studying abroad.
9- Parting gift from one of Mark Holt's fabulous birthday parties.
10- Jekyll & Hyde, my favorite musical ever!
11- Kawarau Bridge Bungy - where I jumped for my 32nd birthday in Queenstown, New Zealand.
12- A t-shirt from one of my visits to beautiful Edinburgh, Scotland.
13- New York City, baby!
14- My first visit to Chicago - it's my kinda town!
15- See #16
16- My t-shirt from the fifth grade. I was in a 89ers "club" with a bunch of awesome girls. We've recently reconnected on Facebook and old pictures of me wearing this shirt were shared. Awesome!
17- The Civil War, from the first production that my mom, Shaunna, and I attended in '98. Great memories from that weekend with mom.
18- The backside of #17.
19- A t-shirt my friend Shauna gave me: MY SUPERPOWER IS SHOPPING. She knows me well. Actually, you hardly have to know me to know that.
20- A pajama top from one of many given at Brown Christmas by the illustrious Betty!
21- One of my favorite t-shirts from my skinnier days. New York rules!
22- The back of #6, listing all the departments in my division at Wells Fargo HBS.
Here is the back of the quilt. Also used are old, worn flannel pants and old jeans I can no longer squeeze into. I hope you like it! Good luck finding someone to make you one! (I'm SO lucky!)

I LOVE that quilt, Sherrie! It turned out super cute. Tell Shaunna she did a great job. It's perfect weather for a new quilt :)
I don't know what is cuter - that adorable family or the couple below them!
PS - That last comment wasn't by Aaron, it was by me!
