Seize the Month!


 A sweet friend of mine does this awesome thing to keep her (and her two little's) busy. She is a navy wife, so with her hubby deployed, keeping busy is important. She likes to have a 'project' for each month, and this month with the help of friends, chose to do a 'seize the day' month. The idea is to make a list of 31 things to do, and put them all in a container. Every day, the kids get to draw one to do.

She invited anyone and everyone to join her. I loved the idea (like many others!) and joined her to seize the day!

Here is our jar with our list of things to be pulled. Feel free to join in and make your own list!
