School Survival Kits 2013

SCHOOL SURVIVAL KITS

Ellie and I saw this idea here, and knew we had to recreate our own.

It was so fun, that we just may do it every year!

First we headed to Walmart and got the following:

Emergen-C

Nail file

Tide To Go

BreathSavers

Proper Zero packets

Luna bars

Colgate Wisps (to go toothbrush/toothpaste)

Jergens lotion

Halls Vitamin C drops

Small notebooks (they are .88 for four)

Carmex lip balm

Excedrin (Migraine or Extra Strength)

Purell hand sanitizer

Crystal Light raspberry green tea packets

Tums

Avery labels (to write their name and message inside)

(We also picked up Lint rollers and small kleenex, but couldn't make them fit in the final product)

You also need supply boxes (we already had some from clearance years ago)

We opened everything up and sorted it on the counter

 Then we troubleshooted until we got it all to fit.

Then we followed the same set up for all of them.

 These are two pictures of the finished product.

Lot of flash late at night...sorry!

 Then Ellie wrote all the notes to the teachers, and each of their names on the front.

 Here is the setup that we found that worked best by layers.

Layer #1 above

Layer #2 above

 Layer #3 above

Finished product all labeled up and closed. 

This one was for Ellie's Aunt Julie who is a teacher too!

Her's said, "I love you!"

 We ended up making SIX. One for Ellie's teacher, her three office ladies, her principal, and her aunt! (We have another for her Aunt Melissa, who is a Dean, when we see her soon)

These are great!  Have fun with it!!

You can choose whatever you want!

Be creative!

Happy 2013-2014 School Year to everyone!!

Parker South Stake Mormon Prom 2013

Ellie and I L.O.V.E. you guys!

Hope you had a great night, because Ellie and I sure did!

A couple of weeks ago, Ellie and I got to capture these cute kids from our stake as they had dinner together and then headed off to Mormon Prom!

Sweet Emily and her date!  I am going to MISS this sweetheart when she heads off to BYU-I next Fall!

Happiness is...a first date with a fun person! Love these kids!

Seriously, LOVE this kid too!  He is always smiling, can rock the piano and any vocal group, and is a great example to everyone around him! Love you Matthew!

This was the food committee, a.k.a. our amazing Stake Young Women's Presidency and their cute daughters!

Mother and daughter...Julie and Janae looking happy and beautiful!

Ellie having some fun with her new "friend!"

FUN group of kids!  I love the funny faces, smiles and everything in between!
