My One Year Anniversary! (DIY Gift Idea, New Hair, Exciting News, etc!)

On Monday, December 23, 2013 me and my boyfriend Christopher celebrated our first anniversary together :) So I thought it would be fun to share with you how we spent the day and give you some gift ideas in case you have an anniversary coming up!

We both had busy days with our families with it being the holidays. So we spent the night in and it was really nice.

This is Chris frosting the cookies we made. We were making cookies for my parents and his parents. This is what we spent the majority of the night doing. The cookies actually turned out pretty good and they tasted great! Like my Breaking Bad Cookie? BLUE METH CANDY CANE ;) I know. I'm way too obsessed.

Of course I had to make a minion cookie. We all know I love my minions!!! He is just too cute, I couldn't eat him!

We made reindeer cookies with Nilla Wafers, Red Hots, and Pretzels. This little guy is so cute.

Of course, I had to make an anniversary cookie. My family and nieces call me KiKi so Chris does too.

Before you start to think that I have a cute boyfriend who bakes with me.... take a look at his other creations.

My dad said "Don't you know it is Christmas?!"

My Grandma (not knowing what it was) said "It's cute!!"

He never fails to make me laugh.

I had a hard time finding something to get him for our anniversary! It was not easy thinking of something unique and thoughtful when I had already bought his Christmas presents. I decided to make him something to remind him of me while he is away at school (:

This is me working on the picture frame! I made him a frame that has song lyrics that remind me of him. It took me a few hours because I wanted to make sure I picked lyrics that were meaningful and songs that we both like and listen to together.

I used our favorite colors to write the lyrics on the border of the frame! :)

This is how it turned out! Some of the lyrics include

"Home is wherever I'm with you,"

"Love don't know what distance is."

"You are the other half, you're like a missing piece."

and may more!

I also got him a really cute Breaking Bad shirt with all of the characters because we watched the entire series together.

It was the last one left and it was in his size! I got it at Hot Topic but they are all sold out online now, so I couldn't leave you guys a link :(

I also got him a Breaking Bad car air freshener that says "Have an A1 day!"

I think the card shows that he knows me all too well.

But in case that wasn't enough he also made a minion out of

Legos. I love him.

He also got me this Rose Gold and Silver Promise Ring. It is an infinity sign or knot just like my tattoo :) It matches the bracelet he got me for our six month. I love it and I love him for getting it for me :) Thank you Christopher!

A lot of you know that this year we lost our Grandpa. With it being Christmas and it being our first without him we just wanted to share with you something we made to remember him. Our Grandpa loved birds so we got an ornament with one on it and wrote "Grandpa, Always in our Hearts."

We miss you Grandpa and we hope you had a wonderful first Christmas in Heaven. We love you<3

I finally masted the halo braid! Let us know if you would like a tutorial for this on our YouTube channel!
