(Yep…it went postal last night!!)
So…
do tell…
What do you think?!?

On a side note…the project kit sold out in the blink of an eye. Let me know if you would be interested in a backorder…I’ve got a little list going…if it hits the mark then I’ll restock.

We just returned from taking Miss Emma to her first day of second grade. Unbelievable. Where does the time go? She is so excited…nervous…and just about every other emotion in between. And this year started a new tradition of sorts. My hubby has always taken the girls to school on their first day. And I loved that tradition until Emma started kindergarten, and I was home alone! Well…this year Taylor starts middle school and will be on a different calendar than Emma. So we decided we would ALL take Emma to her first day of school.

Here’s my favorite pic from this morning. Notice anything different?!? Yep. You got it. Emma has bangs! She took a nasty fall on Friday morning and has a giant (I’m not kidding!) bump across her forehead. It’s not black and blue yet, but it won’t be long. And she certainly didn’t want anyone to see it…so our solution…bangs. LOL! I still can’t get used to sweet Emma with bangs. I keep telling her she looks like Hannah Montana. LOL! As long as her bump is covered…that’s all that really matters.

And now the countdown begins until time to go pick her up…

So…
to help me pass the time…
Let’s do a RAK!!!
Just post a comment and we’ll draw a name at 2:00 this afternoon.

And it only seems appropriate to give away some Appleton papers!
Compliments of Nancy from Scenic Route. Thanks girly!

Happy Monday to YOU!!

ETA:
Woohoo!! We have a winner!! Emma was so excited to read all of your comments when she got home from school. And…just in case you’re wondering…she had a fabulous day!! And our winner…who I’m certain was selected by Miss Emma because of the “diva” part of your username…LOL!!…is Suzy (aka FarmDiva)!! Congrats girly!! We’ll send the RAK your way!!
