You have already seen our wooden table numbers, and now I wanted to share with you what else will be going on the tables. I am so excited to finally show you what I have been working on!

I had the idea for this as soon as we got engaged. Of course, I left it until the last two months to complete, but it’s coming out amazingly either way. Our tables will be numbered traditionally: numerically, from 1 - 26. However, on each of the tables will be pictures of each of us at that age; for example, at Table Five, there will be pictures of us at age 5. Are you ready to see how I’ve put it together? I’m going to split these into a couple posts because otherwise you may actually go into cuteness shock! (All pictures are personal photos.)

Us before age one - I’m not sure what to put on here for age—any suggestions?

Just FYI - Mr. Hermit Crab is always on the left (although, of course, I think that will be fairly obvious). Also, I cut off the blue border on the bottom in this picture, sorry!

You’ll probably notice that I’ve used flowers in each of them - I thought it would be a great way to tie them all together (sorry about the flash spot!)

As it turns out, Mr. Hermit Crab really will be a doctor when he grows up! And of course, I have never stopped loving the phone.

Age seven - this might be the last time Mr. Hermit Crab played soccer

So what if we had professional pictures taken, didn’t everyone?

Stay tuned for the second installment: The Awkward Years, the Teen Years and Present!

I cut the paper to 8 x 10 so I can put them in standard frames on each table. I also have another plan for these babies (eek!) which I will reveal soon.

Did you have a project you were particularly excited about? Did you have an idea for project really early on but still leave it for the end, like me?
