Day 36: Anniversary Gifts

I finished up the anniversary gifts for my husband for our 5th year anniversary. At one point we were talking about what you're "supposed" to get the person for each year (like those modern and traditional lists). I mentioned it was the Disney year and he said no, it's the 5th year, so it's the E year. Well, I expanded on that joke and made 5 presents starting with A-E. You know, to catch up. :) Each letter was like a card he opened up with what the letter stood for (example: A is for... Almond Joy" and the reason why (example: because you bring joy into my life). And yes, I know it looks like Ashlyn did it, but it's hard to try and put it together while Ashlyn's running around me and Aaron comes home shortly after she goes down for quiet time. It's the thought that counts, right?

Day 35: Over the River and Through the Woods

We'll be seeing Ashlyn's Granny and Granddaddy soon and Ashlyn asks if we're going to see them about 10 times a day. So we made a countdown chain and she's super excited about it. My friend has done this for her son and he loved it so I thought we'd give it a shot. (Geez, Ashlyn's hair always looks crazy when it's not in a ponytail. lol)

Day 34: Gobble Gobble Gobble!

So I was running out of time and had no idea what to take a picture of so here it is, the turkey Ashlyn made at the library. :)

Day 33: A Trip To The Zoo

We took a bunch of great pictures when we went to the zoo today. Here's a couple of my favorites.

Aaron and Ashlyn:


Two lovey-dovey river otters. We had awesome pictures of the jaguars and giraffes and others, but otters (especially sea otters) are my favorite animals, so I had to include this one. :)

Day 32: Movie Night

We had our Winnie the Pooh (the new one) movie night this night. I was able to use our new Mickey glove plates and Mickey shaped bowl! Yay!

Day 31: Random Cat Pictures!

I almost forgot to take a picture this day so I tried to take a cool picture of Ali. :)

Day 30: Planning, Planning, Planning

I've been doing this challenge for a month now! Kinda cool. :) There are a ton of things coming up for the rest of the year. There's only 2 weeks until Thanksgiving! So I am planning on doing a lot of bow making in my downtime so I'm not rushing close to when I have to sell them. I am also selling cake pops so I am going to Michaels tomorrow to gather my supplies. In Sunday's paper there was a coupon for 25% off your entire purchase at Michaels, including sale items (some ribbon I need is on sale), and one of our grocery stores has cake mix buy-one-get-one-free so it's the perfect time to prepare. Aaron got down Bakerella's Cake Pops book for me to get some inspiration so it's now sitting on my craft table with my not-yet-complete list of things I need to get at Michaels. :)
