What a date in history! 11 / 11 / 11 - I mean, how cool is that!? :)
So... we did something fairly cool to celebrate!
Today the kids and I did 11 activities, spending under $11, and taking 11 photos along our way.
Olivia kept saying how many things we'd done and adding up how much we'd spent, too cute!
And Number ONE on our agenda, breakfast in bed! (Cost - nothing, just what we had around.)
Number TWO: dropping off an old flag to the local VFW. (Cost - nothing, total cost - nothing.)
Number THREE: a donut for each as a morning snack. (Cost - $2.85, Total - $2.85)
Number FOUR - feeding the ducks, and boy were they hungry! (Cost - $1, Total cost - $3.85)
Number FIVE - Playing at the park near the ducks. (Cost - nothing, Total cost $3.85)
Number SIX - Visiting our local history museum. (Cost - nothing, Total cost - $3.85)
Number SEVEN - Lunch! (Cost - nothing since we had a gift card!, Total cost - $3.85)
Number EIGHT - Walking through our state park. (Cost - nothing, Total cost - $3.85)
Number NINE - Buying "penny" candy at our local candy store. (Cost - $2.88, Total cost - $6.73)
Number TEN - Reading at Barnes and Noble and picking up five books I won in a raffle recently. (Cost - nothing, Total cost - $6.73)
Number ELEVEN - McDonalds to play and eat. (Cost - $4.14, Total cost - $10.87)
Liam had had enough by McDonalds and things spiraled out of control fairly quickly, hence the ONE picture that is quite blurry. :( So we left rather quickly but once home and laying down for a movie he calmed down and we had a great rest of the day too.
