21 Days of Awesome- Day 3 & 4

So... my mom suggested that I go ahead and put some of the notes on here to in order to sort of explain the randomness. The one that came with the elephant stuff said, "Elephants never forget. I see you as thoughtful and remembering to bless others by the gifts of your time, cards, kind words, texts, phone calls, etc. Not to mention our 4th generation love of these beasts!"  :)

On Tuesday I received packages for day 3 & 4! I opened package 3 yesterday.... below are the results:


The note said "Today, I am reminded of how much you love and value your family. You choose to do things to spend time with us when you could make other choices. I'm certain you will make a good wife and mom because of your strong values towards family."  Aww, she is so sweet! :)  We ate at Menchie's Frozen Yogurt many times over the summer... good times, good times! 
 Oh and the little capsule things, when put in warm water, expand into little Menchie character sponges! Pretty cool! Here is a video (sorry for the funny editing... I only have Windows Movie Maker right now. :/  And sorry about the quality, the HD video didn't upload well )....


Tonight I opened package #4! The note said, "I love how you think on things from above and believe the best about people even when circumstances might appear differently. May the bracelet serve to remind you of my love and respect for you and how you always believe the best of others." Inside was this beautiful bracelet:


Isn't it gorgeous! :)

Well, it is late... I should probably head to bed soon... haha ;)

Oh, shout out to Mom: Hope you have a great day at work today! And you get some rest! ;) Love you big!!

21 Days of Awesome- Day 1 & 2

Well, Google basically won't let me use my other blog anymore (long story), so I have established this new blog. ;)

On another note, for the next 21 days, I will be chronicling the little gifts/packages that my awesome mom is sending me for my bday! She had this crazy idea to send me something everyday until my bday...thus the 21 days.

Yesterday (Monday) was the beginning and I received both a card and a package. She suggested I wait until today to open the package. Below is a pic of the card...
It was past midnight, so I decided to open my package just a bit ago...

The Package.

And the stuff inside!

Idk what I will use it for but the little lunch kit is awesome!! Almost as awesome as that elephant card! :D

I will keep you posted on my other packages. She said in one of the cards that "Each of the 21 days will be a little somethin' somethin' that reminds me of you or relates to you and your character." Awww, she's so sweet... this will also probably cause some interesting gifts. ;)

P.S.- Did I mention my mom is awesome? ;)
