My hubby turned the big 3-0 at the end of February, so I wanted to do something special for him. With some hard work, creative thinking, help from friends like Dana, Charla, Alicia, Nicki & Kimberly, and an Excel spreadsheet, I succeeded in getting him 30 presents and wrapping each one individually! He was completely surprised and I think he enjoyed opening each gift. C carefully took each present to her daddy, gave it to him, and then clapped and smiled before she ran and got the next one. Sweet memories! I'm including the final gift list in case anyone needs some ideas!
1. Box of Hot Tamales
2. Bag of Andes Mints
3. New headphones/earbuds

Yay! Thanks for posting the pic! What did R think? Was he totally surprised and overwhelmed like he should be? LOL! You're one Excellent Wife (the Bible study I'm doing right now).
