Octcoryfest!

October is Cory's birthday month and the most exciting month of the year! It's such a fun season with Fall slowly creeping in that I decided that Cory's birthday should slowly creep in as well. So I was trying to think of a cheap but meaningful thing that would last a whole month, so I thought of a birthday countdown!! I emailed friends and family members for letters or thoughts about Cory and got such great responses! I was tearing up with so many of them because they were saying exactly the things I feel about Cory too. I knew he would love it. So, while he abandoned me for 10 days to do his research study, I got to work putting it all together and was able to surprise him with this when he came home!

He gets to open one each morning and so far they have been amazing. I'm so happy that we have such great friends and family who did this for us. I also have a few presents sitting out all wrapped that he cannot touch! :) I'm loving his anticipation. Throughout the countdown there are a few special days that will let him pick a present to open. I can't wait for his actual birthday and am so excited to make it through all of these special letters. Thank you all! Also, on a side note, we made these delicious pizza rolls the other night. They are amazing. I'm pretty sure what made them so good was that we went to the bakery at Smiths and got some fresh dough there-so cheap and so delish. We were in heaven eating them and I am telling you that you must go make these now. They are that good.
