My Husband Is Awesome...

...because he builds us ottomans for our living room.

So after the under the surface type of post yesterday, I feel kinda silly posting today about something so materialistic. I feel like I should have taken a bit of a break but figuring out how to balance my daily needs versus wants is a work on progress.

Here is the story behind the ottomans, it was the day before I was leaving for Tucson over two weeks ago. We headed for a quick trip to Target for a few items and Sean wonders over to the home decor area. He pulls out an ottoman and promptly sits on it. It was cute and all but I wasn't wowed. 

All week long then when I was in Tucson, he kept saying I'm going to build up ottomans. Hearing from him as I was heading back to California that he was at Lowe's for wood, I knew he was on a mission. So immediately after picking me up from the airport, he drove us straight over to Jo-Ann's to look for foam and fabric. 

When Sean gets excited about a project, there is no stopping him, he all about that project until it is completed, he won't rest until the last nail has been pounded in, which is a great thing because I know he will be completing any project he starts shortly.

The ottomans he made has a lid on both so we can store stuff inside them and with plenty of padding they are very comfortable to sit on. 

 Isn't my handy man so cute?

I helped a little bit

 Sean bought legs for the ottomans

How adorable!

With the lids, he made them fitted.

The finished product!

He did a great job on the ottomans and I'm appreciative of his desire to build projects for our home.
