Keep a Piggy Bank

One of the things on our list is to keep a piggy bank. When I was pregnant for Arin, I started keeping a piggy bank. We used the money that was saved for her first birthday. Since then, we have been keeping a piggy bank and using the money towards our annual Family Fun Day (the first one is listed here). Arin has always loved putting the coins in the bank. She also knows the names of the different coins. Today, she had fun sorting the piles of coins with me. The piggy bank was completely filled and we ended up with $109.17, which was saved over the past 14 months (with the help of some contributions from some family members). Thank you Aunt Sheila for our piggy bank! Now on to planning Family Fun Day 2009!
