A couple weeks before our wedding I put these emergency kits together.

While I was collecting all the supplies I kept thinking that it was something we wouldn't end up using, but if I didn't make them we would need them.  So I made them, and boy have we used them!

Refresher of Contents:

Johnson and Johnson First aid kit
Band-aids & alcohol swabs
Sewing kits
-buttons/thread/needles/scissors/safety pins
Ibuprofen
Allergy Medicine
Mini Tide Stick

Seriously has been one of the handiest and most used item in my bag!
My sandals for engagement pictures gave me blisters - break out the band-aids!
The day of the wedding I believe Cody said the boys cracked open the Ibuprofen and Allergy meds.
Ibuprofen may have been used out of the girls room one too.

Perhaps most importantly it was used to fix Ethan's pants!
When he got dressed that morning they discovered that his pants were way too short! So when the boys got to the church E was sent downstairs so Mom could quickly let the hem out....hmmm actually....maybe she didn't use the sewing kit after all.  Oh well, funny story anyways!

After the wedding we've continued to use the kit for bandaids, medicine, and the sewing kit!

Reunited and it feels so good

Sharkey was one of Maxx's first toys.  He loved him almost to death, splitting him open and spilling out stuffing.  Luckily I grabbed my handy dandy emergency kit and stitched him back up.  After being Sharkey-less for a couple weeks Maxx was so happy to have him back!

One day Cody asked me for the tide stick...and I actually didn't have the kit on me, oops.

I will definitely be keeping it stocked and on hand for emergencies!
