Show & Tell

Posted in Show and Tell

I got the MOST EXCELLENT Christmas present from my sister-in-law--AGAIN!  I am still in shock at its wonderfulness.  I've been saving up this blog for today, but it's been hard because I've wanted to write about it since we received it!  Here it is:

 

 

The box alone is extremely cool, but what was inside--wow!

 

 

Twelve blank, sealed envelopes!  What are they? 

 

 

Twelve DATE NIGHTS!  We're to open one a month and each is something special for Dan and I to do!  WOW!

 

Well, last week we opened the first one:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We had a great time (of course I forgot the camera) and now we can't wait for February to choose again!  

 

Do I not have the best SISTER-in-law EVER!?  Thanks, Shell!

You have GOT to be kidding! That is the coolest idea I've ever seen. I must pack that away for gifts for my DD and DS. How very very clever. Thanks for sharing!
