SENT!

Well my Mamarazzi's Favorite Things Swap package is on its way to my cute, fun partner. I am posting a picture because everything look so cute here, but I crammed it into a flat rate box so it miiight not look as crisp and pretty on the other end and I want Miss Grand Pooba to see that it WAS wrapped all pretty. I am actually not concerned it will look HORRIBLE when it arrives..but it does look super cute here all laid out! Just a little teaser Pooba!!Everyone's packages should have gone out over the weekend or at the VERY latest TODAY!! I will be posting Mr. Linky on Thursday March 11th. Everyone will be getting their packages around that time and will be coming here to link up so we can all hop around the blogsphere and check out all of the favorite things swappy goodness! So. Much. Fun.

Check out the new poll and weigh in on what you think the theme should be for the next swap scheduled for April (my birthday month)!

There are so many super fun things happening right now...

I am preparing for my trip to NY and I gotta tell you, as it gets closer I am getting more and more excited! I can't wait to tell you all about it! Click the fish on my sidebar...you will thank me for it!

I am quickly approaching 100,000 visitors...dude. That is awesome...I am going to have to think of something special for the person who rounds that number out! Woot!

SITS Spring Fling is happening on March 10 and I have lined up an ADORABLE prize from an amazing Etsy shop...I am super excited about this. You. Are. Going. To. L-O-V-E. This.

Things on the home front are pretty mellow. Big Daddy has been working doubles this weekend since J is away. The house is sooooo quiet. I really should take advantage of the peace to read a book or something, but I am in an organizing kind of mode so I am going with that. I have also been doing a lot of writing lately...I am feeling introspective as we face some unforeseen hurdles as a family. I am positive we will get through it, we are a really good team and my sister Meg and brother Scotty plus both sets of our folks have all been amazingly supportive. Thanks for that guys, you have really been there for us. I am also thankful for amazing friends. You guys rock!!

I promise my next post will be about something fun...I still need to post about President's Week off of school...that was a way fun week AND I even have the pictures to prove it!
PhotobucketP.S. Did you see the Good News and Bad News post? FUN announcement!

yes you should enjoy the peace and quite although I know how weird it is. When my baby was born, my mother took my older two girls for a few days and it was just the weirdest feeling...I wanted them home, hehe.

Kristin said...

I sent my swap goodies out on Saturday morning. So excited.

Amy said...

I just addressed mine and put it next to my purse so that I can mail it out first thing this morning. I am so excited for this, it's been fun :)

April said...

WOw...your swap partner is going to be one lucky gal! I love how you wrapped everything so beautifully! I'll be heading to the post office in a short while!

jewelstreet said...

It looks so cute! Your partner is a lucky duck. Hope my partner likes hers.

Amy said...

I am sorry I am not doing the swap this time -- it is so much fun BUT as this month has been hectic here it is probably good! I am looking forward to the next one!

Ann On and On... said...

Oh you make me jealous. I had mine wrapped so purrtty then went to send it to New Zealand...for 50.00, so back to the house I went and made it not as pretty with a few lighter gifts and it was half the price. This was so much fun! Looking forward to doing it again!!!

I hope your trip is wonderful! It will be fun to hear all about it.

What pretty packages!!! My box is going out today!!!

Joy said...

Love the wrapping job you did - the colors are so fresh and springy!

Craftymoose Crafts said...

You did a great job with wrapping!

I sent my package out Saturday--and let my swap partner know--because we were to get snow today. Woke up to 8+ inches & counting, so I'm glad I did!

banananutmeg said...

aw man I SO wish I were getting a package today! I should have done the swap. Your package is so pretty! I know gift bags are more economical, but tearing into a paper-wrapped gift is so much more fun.
I have the private blog all set up, I just haven't sent out invites to everyone yet, so I'll probably keep the old one up and running for another week or so, while I do all the annoying email invite bidnezz.
Miss you, have a sun-shiney week!

Jen said...

Dang girl! Your swap partner is gonna love ya even more now! How cute are you? I feel as though I need to go re-do mine now. Hopefully my swap partner will still love what I send. It's all packaged and ready to go. Just waiting on the hubby to watch the kids, so I can go ship it. SO MUCH FUN! Yay!

capperson said...

April is my birthday month also..what day is yours?
Mine is the 12th!

TattooedMinivanMom said...

Can't decide between the favorites or the spring welcome theme. Gonna have to get in on that next one.

Megan said...

Your swap partner is LuCkY! :0) I sent my package out Saturday..I am excited for her to receive it! :0) I ran out of paper, so a few items are not wrapped--I totally should have gone with the tissue paper, I did not even think about using some!

Sorry to read about the hard times, but yes, you all will definitely get through them!

Monkeys ARDently In Sinc said...

Oh, your swap partner is so lucky! I have sent my package, and it has been received. I think she likes it! But my wrapping was definitely not as cute as yours!
I can't wait to get my package! And I look forward to your next swap. How 'bout "Spring-time fun"?

Tabitha in Bliss said...

Your receiver is going to be so thrilled! Everything looks so beautiful!

Megan R. said...

Mine went out today, but it sure doesn't look as pretty as yours does, you rock!! There is a pic of my Favorites on my Not Me! Monday post today!

Michelle said...

Wow, I can see why you get so many people for your swap. Looks like fun.

Rachael said...

Sending mine out today - just got mine in the mail today but will resist opening it quite yet...

April said...

I was going to shove everything in a box...but now I am going to have to wrap it all pretty.

I am such an idiot, and forgot to put a card/note in the box with all the stuff! So my poor partner might have to wait until tomorrow! It's okay, though...it's worth it right?

Kebi Cedawna said...

I sent mine out this morning! I wrapped it all with polka-dot tissue paper, but I wish I would have included some little notes like you did.
Can't wait to get mine in the mail, hope my partner likes all the stuff I sent to her as much as I do! :)
And thankyou for being such an awesome swap hostess and for attending to all my questions and emails. You're the best!

An Ordinary Mom said...

Everything looks so pretty all packaged up!

Divaeva said...

Everything looks so beautiful! Mine went out today - I really hope Kirby likes it! I am so excited!!! <3

Queen of Feisty said...

I went to the post office this morning, my presents were all wrapped in tissue paper, and put inside ONE big present! And a Super fun handmade card I did, weeee!

I can't wait to get my swap, sometime next weekish!! Thanks again!

Feisty

Alexis AKA MOM said...

Wow what a fun thing, and those are so cute. I love the wrapping. I can't wait to come back and see more. Happy Monday :)

Grand Pooba said...

You are in so much trouble! That looks so dang cute!!! I am so lucky to have you as a partner! I am not as nearly as talented as you in my wrapping abilities!

Yours is in the mail!

scrappysue said...

Supercool Hotmama said...

Wow. I sound like a stalker. I better go to bed.
