Hi

Just a quick note, we didn't get done until 2 a.m. with the catering items for the MOPS meeting this morning and there were a couple of flops I will tell you later. Remind me.

I fell asleep at 3 a.m. and got back up at 6:45 a.m., gonna be some major napping later today!

Everything seemed to go well, we took dozens of everything and it all pretty much disappeared! Which I guess was a testament to the fact they all liked our stuff! Yay!

I have 2 days to finish the shower project, and 6 days to finish all 3 dresses, yay me!

I am going to Rockford right now to pay my electric bill so I don't get it shut off! I am going to Village Green, and local nursery in Rockford. Channel 23 WIFR, the CBS affiliate in Rockford holds a savings event every Thursday morning that they call Dollar Doublers. They have a local business's put up gift certificates for half price. Last week they offered $50 gift certificates for $25, limit 3 per family. I was fortunate enough to be able to purchase 2.

I always plant a big planter for my mom's front porch for Easter and then her back flowerbed for her birthday, and something else flowery for Mother's Day. She really enjoys them so much. She is of an age where she pretty much goes and gets whatever she wants. I decorate a wreath for her front door every season and I have fun coming up with something bigger and better every time.

She is so cute! I just love her so much! It is fun surprising her and the littlest thing can make her so excited and happy! I gave her some little tin snow angels at Christmas time, because I didn't have any money, they were sale gifts I had gotten a number years before. I wrapped them so I would have something to put under the tree, for her to open, and I made my step-dad sugar cookies with nuts as they are his favorite. You will never believe how excited she was about those angels! She called me 3 days in a row to tell me how much she liked them!

Whenever you are gift giving go with your heart! Don't try to guess what the other person wants, give them something you want for them. You can't go wrong, if they don't like it they can return it, but I think it is fun to see what my girls think of when they think of me in their hearts rather than their heads! Try it and let me know!

Got to go, talk at you later!
