ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting the party. ;)
Thanks for hosting! First off - I want one of those split pea wreaths too!! Also - I am your newest follower and I will be hosting my first Foodies Friday linky party tomorrow. I would love for you to stop by! Oh...and I tried to put your button on my links page but it isn't working properly...
ReplyDeleteWhat great ideas! I LOVE that play room! And the hallway make-over was super (For Christmas, my Aunt got me "Dombey and Son" by Charles Dickens: it is 30 CD's which is 360 hours of listening!!!!! I think I'll get LOTS of projects done on that one!! I love the old classics and it does make those long projects go by in a fun way.) Love all the projects you showed: so creative!! Thanks for doing these parties!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I just read your "Homeschooling" section on here, and it was really great! I home-school also, and I have a teaching degree, but I still feel quite overwhelmed like I'm not sure I know what I'm doing. But it truly is VERY rewarding. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for inviting me on over! I never have time to check out the new parties- its even better when you are invited to one by the host! Saw you are reading "Like Water for Elephants"- you are goona love it- one of my favorites. And of course, thanks for being my 100th follower- I am so happy to reach that milestone!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Alison~ All linked up!! I saw a couple of those links last week- they were fantastic! Thanks for hosting! :)
ReplyDeleteOk...so people are going to think that we are conspiring together to pick the same people (and each other) to feature! But, Heather says thank you very much for featuring her! No one will believe that we didn't talk beforehand! :-)
