Hump Day Poll: Your Childhood Go To's
Candy Edition! I was thinking about my Mom's 50th birthday party. It was a wonderful memory because I worked really hard on it and planned it for 9 months to make it great for her. Because she didn't have a 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I was going to go all out for her 50th. I had family, friends, people from high school, co-workers (ones I knew she liked! 😁) and I loved seeing her face when she would see people she hadn't seen in a long time. One of the biggest hits that people talked about for years after were the retro candy baskets on every table. I bought ones that I knew were her favorites as well as looking at what were popular at the time. People lost their minds and were squealing like kids when they saw their favorites. I got all of the candy through Candy Favorites website and it's always so fun to look through. I was perusing the site, I was thinking of what stuff I'd want in the baskets on my table for a party like Mom's: Cher...
What a relief it is to have put another major dent in our DiY projects. I know we have more to do still but any time we get one thing done it just feels good. I am so glad we got a chance to see the movies last night cause that kind of kicked off the season for me in a big way that I honestly wasn't expecting. Have a great week everybody!
ReplyDeleteSounds productive yet frustrating. I'm sure it will be amazeballs because you are so good at this stuff!
ReplyDeleteHave an awesome week!
My goodness, you guys have been at it!! So glad you got so much done and hopefully this next part won't be nearly as bad as you fear. And how fun going to the "drive-in" for some holiday movies! That's just what you needed to unwind a bit.
ReplyDeleteWeekend was busy with work and I was extremely tired when I got home yesterday. My plans kind of went out the window because I was just too fatigued. But I managed to get some things done so I can't complain. This week is super busy starting today, so I just have to push through and hopefully by the weekend I can look back and see great progress has been made.
