Happy Anniversary!

Yes it is our Anniversary today! April 13th 2011!

(look I actually blogged about something and didn't have to say it took place two months ago!!)

On Monday Adell and I decided to surprise Kevin when he came home from work. This idea came to me at like seven at night so we weren't really in the mood to go shopping for things so we just had fun with what we had.

We grabbed an old cardboard box, some markers,

tissue paper, and finger paints and went to work!

Adell was pretty excited about the whole thing!

She was also very tired by the time we were finished.

See her grabbing her ears? That is her I am so sleepy sign.

You would be tired too if you painted and painted and painted

the side of a cardboard box with your feet!

I tried to have her use a paint brush but that went right in her mouth. I also tried to let her use her hands but she went right for her mouth again. And while these are non toxic paints, I really don't want to clean up purple poop. So I let her paint with her feet. And it turned out so good!

Inside the box we put little things to tell daddy about everything we love doing with him. For example we had a CD to remind him how much we love dancing around the house listening to music. We had a whisk, reminding him how much we love cooking together. We had a jacket to remind him how much we love going on hikes and walks, exploring the world with Kevin, etc.

So when Kevin got home Tuesday morning he had a wonderful surprise!

Happy Anniversary Kevin!

Thanks for being a great husband and father!

WE LOVE YOU!!!!
