Shiner

And I don't mean Bock. Look at my poor baby. She got this when Natalya hit her in the eye with a baseball bat. It was an accident and it was a foam bat. A hard foam bat. When I was little my sister hit me in the eye with a bat, too. Supposedly that was also an accident but that was a REAL bat. 'Member that, Steph? Oh, and that boo boo on V's lip is from the night before when she apparently ran into the fence. I think my baby is going to have a bumpy ride.

Tutu Fun! My First Blog Giveaway

How exciting! My first giveaway. Well, it turns out that I participated in what I thought was going to be a craft show a couple of weeks ago. It really wasn't. I won't bore you with details, but I ended up coming home with too many tutus and a migraine. They are handmade by me and cute. I just don't want to have to keep them or try and sell them 'cause it turns out that the craft show thing isn't really my deal (shopping them yes, sitting around for hours no.) So, one could be yours! I have two to give away. Here are the details:

• One is size 2, one is size 3.
  
• Leave a comment here stating whether you would like to win the size 2 OR 3.
• There will be two drawings, one for the size 2 winner and one for the size 3 winner.
• Leave the comment by Saturday, Nov. 17 at midnight and I will announce the winner on Sunday, Nov. 18.
• The winners will get to choose between two colors that I have already set aside. The size 2 comes in chocolate brown or ballet pink. The size 3 comes in ballet pink/white or light blue.
  

I will use the most technical way of drawing names. That of which will be the pick a name from the hat method. Each of my girls will chose one name ('cause peace be no more if only one got to choose.) The only other requisite is that you have to show us a picture of the tutu wearer once you have received the tutu. Good luck and happy fairy dancing and princess love!

Boys Oh Boys

The other day, my friend Dawn asked me to take a few pictures of her boys. How could I say "No" with faces like these. Plus, I never get to see boys faces in my camera. Aren't they cuties?

Big brother Jackson...

...and Baby brother Harrison in all his beautiful baby chubbiness.

One of these will be My Best Shot for today. Hmmm... Which should it be? I'll decide later. More Best Shots at Picture This.

And more Shawn love... I just had to throw in her other blog that shows off her blog design work. It's all eye candy. I have a feeling she'll be staying pretty busy.

AND, I've been working on our Christmas card. Can't wait to show it to you. Soon.

AND AND I can't believe Stacy is giving away one of her one of a kind custom made creations to one winner. I want it to be me so don't enter. I love her work.

AND, in the spirit of Stacy's giving, I've decided to have my own First Blog Give Away. If you have girls in your life, come back tomorrow for details. You won't be disappointed at the cuteness.

Saturday

We were very lazy today. Which is very odd. But this evening we decided to go check on the house and passed the river. The paddle boats were out so decided to go for a ride. The girls had a blast. The weekends are usually set aside for doing "something fun" as Vienne says. They couldn't wait to get out of the house. I am hoping to have some new pictures of the house soon. They've been spending a lot of time on the rock work so I'm waiting for something new to happen.
