Our Ref Magnet Collection

Our small ref magnet collection.
a
a
Aside from food erasers, we also collect ref magnets.  But unlike food erasers, which is an Aly + mommy thing, Richard is included in the ref magnet collection.  Most are souvenirs from our travels, others are random souvenirs and stuff that caught our eye.

The travel series.
a
a
Top row: Ocean Park, Hongkong Disneyland + 2 magnets from Hongkong, one for each visit.  Bottom row: Wat Pho, Grand Palace + Pattaya, all here in Thailand.
a
a
Top row: one from the Philippines (syempre!), Safari World (during Aly's field trip which I chaperoned), Floating Market, Chokchai Farm.  Bottom row: Hua Hin + other stuff which I will explain later.
a
a
Our Instax souvenir from baby Nate's baptism with the faux rhinestone magnet that I got from Daiso.
a
a
More Daiso finds: kitchen timer and bottle opener.  I love these gadgets!
a
a
Mini food series.  Miniature food stuff that we bought from Chatuchak: (from the top) a bottle of cognac, Toblerone, McDonald's tumbler, Crunch, Haagen Dazs ice cream cup, KitKat, mini slices of cake on a plate (the trio at the bottom), Aly's school photo magnet (more of these are scattered around the ref as well).

This is a souvenir from my inaanak Audrae's baptism.  I love this for two reasons #1 the inspiring message, #2 their family, Gerald, Dy and Auddie Castell are close friends of ours.
a
a
I got these two from the Sunday walking market in Chiang Mai.  I'm digging the vintage vibe.
a
a
Another school photo of Aly, but from last year.  A photo of with Richard from a wedding fair.  A souvenir when we were planning our wedding.

A puffer fish magnet that Aly got from Chatuchak.
a
a
Monogrammed magnets also from Chatuchak.

Collecting these magnets are fun!  I love how all three of us are involved in this collection.  Makes it more special.  Best of all, they don't cost too much.
