At 58 items long, sometimes my life list seems a bit daunting. However, other times the items on my list are so much fun to complete, I forget I even wrote them on it in the first place!
Such was the case last week as Tara, Catie and I planned a surprise engagement dinner for our friends Angie & Caleb. I have known Caleb & Angie since I tutored math with Caleb in college at University of Wisconsin - La Crosse, so when they announced their engagement at the opening school assembly I was so excited for them!! After planning out the logistics, we decided to throw them a small engagement party dinner with just a few friends.
To add to the element of surprise (and get them to the restaurant) we wrote them a poem with instructions about the night, colored it, cut it up into pieces and gave each of them half the pieces. Assembling the project took more time than anticipated...but it was a fun way to get them excited for a night they were not really expecting.
