• Love It – PrintrBot Simple Maker’s 3D Printer

    PrintrBot Simple Maker's 3D Printer

    So excited to watch him open this gift!!!

    After a few months of saving my spending cash I was able to get my husband the PrintrBot Simple Maker’s 3D Printer for our anniversary.  I was surprised that it came in such a small package!  3D printers are starting to become more popular and this one was a little less expensive because you had to put it together.  Jake and the girls thought it was awesome being able to build a printer!

    Several of the pieces inside the 3D Printer had “Point of No Return” stickers which was kind of funny!  They read – “The option to return your PrintrBot will self destruct after opening this bag.”

    It came in pieces that needed to be assembled!  Jake thought it was great!

    It didn’t take him long to get it together and start printing some neat stuff!

    It is a neat printer!  The whole family has enjoyed it!  The girls have even been able to make a few items for their school projects too!

  • Sweet Surprise Gifts from My Handsome Man!

    Little gift from my handsome man in the medicine cabinet!

    I love it when my sweet man leaves surprise goodies for me.  Here are some of the fun ones he left me when he went on a trip earlier this year.  Thankful for an amazing husband who loves me and is very thoughtful.  Love you Jake!

  • Gift Giving: Welcome Home Basket for My Sweetheart

    Basket full of goodies for my handsome man!

    When Jake goes away on a business trip I try to have something special for him when he gets back home.  Recently I had this basket full of goodies waiting for him on the couch upon his return.  The basket included:

    • Love Note
    • 2 bags Original Chex Mix
    • 2 pack Hand Sanitizer
    • Sheets Energy Strips – Cinnamon and Berry Blast
    • Peanuts
    • Rolo’s wrapped in a red Love Note

    Inside the wrapping paper – “I love the way you roll!”

    I am thankful for a husband who loves me, works hard to provide for our family, and is an amazing Daddy to our girls.  These little gifts are just one of the ways I love to remind him of how much he means to us.  The kids have a blast helping pick out something special to “welcome” Daddy back home whether it is a balloon, a favorite food, special drink, sign, drawings, cards and more.  Every time I try to do a different surprise and in various locations in the house to mix it up a little bit for him.  I have a lot of fun doing it for him and I know it is appreciated too.
