Here's the book if you're interested!
I am so excited to dive in and read what I know is going to be yet another terrific and heart pounding read! Thanks again Katie, you are simply the best! :)
Today I have to get the house ready for Gramma. She's coming to watch Seth for us this weekend, while Nate and I are on retreat with some middle schoolers. Lots of sports stuff and seminars with all the surrounding area Youth. Its always fun. I actually like the Middle School one better than the High School one (in April) b/c the MS one the kids are unconcerned about appearances, so they yell and clap, and they are all in PJ's. The HS one, it all about "cool" and a fashion show, KWIM?
I am also excited, because it means daily Starbucks, and a trip to the Mall with some cool girls, LOL! I am looking for something Christmasy for Seth, so I can get his Christmas Cards done early. I just saw that if you make your Holiday Card Order BEFORE 12.01.06, you can take off 40% at Winkflash.com. Use the code RT43WE87.
I am totally taking and using Jenn's JOY idea. You can see her Card HERE. I've already ordered the Letters from Pottery Barn Kids, and I need to get some black fleece for a backdrop. Once I get everything, Holiday card shooting shall commence.
This was our card last year.. and it was a big hit~
OY!!! A nekid baby just ran by..............

Well, first I was all ready to say "woohoo!" on that book surprise, because it is very cool indeed. And THEN I was about to say, "WOOHOO!!!" for daily Starbucks because, well, because daily Starbucks is probably just a hair shy of nirvana. But THEN I saw your Christmas card from last year. I have tried and tried and tried to do that for at least the last 4-5 years! Care to share your secret? :D
I just read my first Jodi Picoult book a couple weeks ago - The Pact. I loved it! I'll be looking for more of her stuff! Any especially good ones I should read?
The JOY card is very cute! I had a friend do it last year for Christmas and I stole the idea for Valentine's Day using LOVE.
Have fun on your retreat! I agree -middle schoolers are so fun! :)
Jodi Piccoult is one of my favs too! I read this one a few months ago. I'll be interested to read your review once you have finished it. :)
