Happy Wednesday, my friends! I knew going into this week that
it was going to be a busy one – and it has been – but it’s been a pretty good
week. As we enter this new month and sail full-force into fall, I have a few
goals for the Shaffer household, so I’m sharing them with you today.
Celebrate our engagementversary. Believe it or
not, Saturday marks THIRTEEN YEARS since Ryan surprised me with a proposal!
Some of you remember that day well, don’t you? You were surprised right along
with me. π
We don’t tend to go over the top with engagementversary celebrations, but I do have
a few ideas for dates to enjoy the goodness of the day.
Take a personal planning day. I am so excited
about this one. When I attended the staff retreat this past month, we did a lot
of collaborative planning for the next year. Now that I know those
plans, I am ready to have a planning day of my own! I have made lists (upon
lists upon lists) and plan to lay out not just the events to come, but the
timeline of planning leading up to those events. My producer days sure are coming
in handy!
Plan for and enjoy family photos. We have our
family picture day coming up later this month, and while I think we have an
idea of what we will wear, we need to finalize that idea and then enjoy the
chance to hang out with our friend, Barb, for the night!
Work on vacation album. I want to try to knock
out most/all of the Mackinac trip prior to our anniversary. It should go pretty
quickly once I get into it. I just need to begin!
Work on Christmas letter. I normally pick a
theme for our Christmas letter very early in the year and then slowly craft the
letter all year long. This year…um…I haven’t thought of the theme just yet. I
need to make that a priority this month so I can begin my wordsmithing!
I think
these should keep me plenty busy enough. What plans do you have for October?
