Is there anything Blake Lively isn’t good at? The actress, wife and expecting mother surprised her husband, Canadian actor Ryan Reynolds, with a gift last week, and from the looks of it, she downright nailed it.
Ryan Reynolds took to Instagram to share a photo of himself standing next to a painting, which depicts himself as a young guy on one of his first jobs: distributing newspapers.
“My first job was delivering newspapers for the Vancouver Sun. The house in the painting is my childhood home. My brothers and I spent years trying to kill each other on that lawn,” he wrote.
But the best parts of the painting were in the little, nostalgia-filled details that clearly struck a chord with the Deadpool actor, namely the newspaper with Ryan’s idol, John Candy, on the front page, and of course the house itself.
He added “The house no longer stands but it’s a living, breathing thing in my head. This piece of art is the greatest present my wife has ever given me. It was created by @dannygalieote. If there’s ever a fire, I’m grabbing this first. I’ll come back for Blake.”
