Holy Moly!

All I can say is "WOW"!!! You guys are awesome! Never would I have guessed I would see this much traffic on me lil' ol' blog! And the super sweet comments have been gift after gift! Thank you all for making me feel so special.

Just wanted to check in and let you guys know how much I appreciate you. Of course the contest is still open for a few more days. Just be sure to refer to my previous post to get the details. This has been the craziest week and it appears it will only get crazier. Unlike last week's marathon-of-Mondays, this week is filled with activity of the best kind. I am lucky enough to share an almost birthday with my daughter. She will turn 19 on Friday while I will turn ??? on Saturday. Lots of travel, family time and cake! YUM! YUM! Good news is, unlike the chocolate cheesecake bites, I don't have to hide in my locked car in broad daylight to enjoy the cake...lol! (re: "I Have A Tummy Ache")

I won't be posting for a few days due to all the festivities. But I have so much to share next week starting with the winner of the give away! I will be stopping by to say hello to everyone as time allows. Know I'm thinking about you guys and missing my blog buddies!

Before I go, I want to leave you with a pic of my birthday girl!



Hope the remainder of the week and the weekend is filled with love and laughter! XOXO

P.S. I cannot leave without giving you something to giggle over. This chuckle comes by way of my good blogging buddy, ellen. This girl is not only insanely talented, she is always leaving wickedly funny comments. We have so much in common...except for the fact that I am neither insanely talented nor wickedly funny. She left this comment on my give away post.

"i linked you to my post this a.m. i was going to put 'not only is she giving away some awesome RAKS she has a big one too'! but i figured that was a bit inappropriate since i linked that post to the BTA contest, lmbo!"

Of course I had to thank her for not telling all the world about my big RAK...because of course I already had! (re: "Taming 'The Girls'")

    You're already a popular blogging gal, even without the giveaway :)

    Also, your daughter looks just like Mandy Moore in that picture.

    PS--You should definitely share more of your scrapbook work! And, you are totally exagerating when you say that your stuff isn't worth sharing! I've only seen a couple things, but I went back to remind myself and your "You hold the key to my heart" card is just beautiful! And, trust me, I am a straightforward, honest person and I wouldn't single something out to say it's great unless I honestly think that and I do.

    But, I'll still visit your blog even if you don't post scrappy stuff, just b/c you're you :)
