Isn't it great?! I'm so in love.
A few weeks before Joe left, he decided that it would be ok for me to order a bag from Hero On My Arm for my birthday. =) I was thrilled. I've wanted one of these bags since I stumbled onto their website in...February [I think]. I was so excited that I'd talked it up enough to get one!
Well, obviously, it takes a while to make one of these bags. 6-8 weeks, supposedly. Well, right after Joe left I got an email with the tracking number for the bag. I was so excited that I literally squealed. After checking my mailbox for weeks, I finally try to email them about my bag. I got the email, so what was the deal? Well, I went to their website and sure enough my precious bag wasn't finished yet. *sigh* So, I stopped checking the mailbox every day and just decided that it would get here when it got here. Well, I never got any email updates that it had been shipped so I was just thinking it'd be a while.
I got home today and was talking to Mom on the phone when I walked to the mailbox. As soon as I opened the "locker" they put big packages in, and saw the return address I gasped loudly. My mom asked, "What is it?" I said, "It's my purse!!!! YAY!!!!" And proceeded to do a little happy dance. I'm sure my neighbors thought I was some sort of weirdo for getting excited about mail. Haha=) But, I don't care. I love it! It's way bigger than I thought it would be too. That's never a bad thing for me, lol! The bigger the better! It's gonna get packed full anyway, so it might as well be big. Wanna see some more pictures?

Side pocket. There's one on each side.

(With all my junk because I already switched purses. Nah, I wasn't excited.)

Slot for the pens. I think this works better on the guys' jackets than in the purse. Still pretty handy, though!
So what do you think? Are you in love yet? 'Cause I definitely am. Ah, purse heaven. ;-)
I know some people have issues with these bags, but I think they're great. I mean, all of us have a bazillion extra uniforms laying around that aren't being used. Why not re-purpose them for something that we'll actually get good use out of? I think it's a great way to show my support for my hubby. Especially when he's not here.
Thanks, Joe, for the [late] birthday gift! Love you! :*
