For my best friend

This was a fun project for my best friend. He's the one who knows how ugly I can be and still calls me a friend. It is my way of saying thanks for all that you do.
How many little boys had cowboy dreams? How many little boys wanted a cap gun? How many little boys said "stick um up" to their Daddy?

I have had this box for a while. and I knew I wanted to do something as a thank you for all the times he listened and didn't have the time. Then I found the cap gun and I remember his stories about wanting a gun and playing cowboy.
Phone call to "sis" and I have the rest of the surprise.

She found the pictures. I scanned and printed them then embellished the whole project.

Thanks for your help Christie - don't tell him. I want it to be a surprise.

without laughing at your ass."
