My 2008 Birthday Gift (From Laura)
A few days ago, I posted about how the focal point of my office was the painting Laura got me for my birthday in 2008. In June 2008, we were on the pier in San Clemente and there was an artist named Paul Gavin selling paintings of San Clemente. I told Laura, "These paintings remind me of my childhood summers in San Clemente, one day I will have one of these paintings". Notice the painting on the right hand side behind us..jpg)
Laura remembered how much i liked them and contacted Paul Gavin to get me a painting for my birthday. The most amazing part of this story is that Paul Gavin remembered us! He remembered that I had a baby (Sydney was 3 months) and remembered how much we liked the paintings. So on my 35th birthday, Laura surprised me with an original Paul Gavin painting. It is gorgeous and it makes me very happy every time i see it!!!!.jpg)
