Christmas in June

I've mentioned this before but my family does the coolest thing with our Christmas gifts for each other. We give each other 'experiences' for later in the year so that we can enjoy time together and special treats all year long! This year we have already had our Family Fun Day at Planet X + awesome dinner courtesy of Jason & Em and we have yet to cash in on the 'Choose Our Own Des Moines Adventure' gift from Jessie & Chris. Our gift to the family was a family photo session which we just had a couple weeks ago. The pics turned out fabulous (see the blog post of our family shoot from the awesome local photog we chose for this gift, who just so happens to be great friends of our wedding photog). Next weekend we are heading home to Mom & Dad's for a geocaching adventure (testing out our new GPS devices)+ book discussion+ dinner. I am loving Christmas in June!
