Happy 8/9/10 Day!

Today my last exciting bit of mail (that I have been expecting) came. I was so giddy with excitement to see it sitting in my mailbox. A few weeks ago I found this awesome blog from blog hopping. I like Jill’s blog b/c she posts almost every single day and she puts questions at the end of each post that make you think. Anyways, she had a little contest where she said to leave a comment guessing how many pieces of “good mail” she sent out that day. I decided on a whim to just put a random number, and lo and behold, I WON! She was so cute and sent me an email saying I could pick from 4 different things.

Behind Door #1
A mix cd in the genre of your choice--Acoustic, Churchish, Country, Contemporary, Dance, Girl Power, Mood-Lifting,70s, 80s or Serious Cleaning Mix or you can request a certain mix I haven't thought of yet.

Behind Door #2
Good Mail Labels--Choose your favorite colors and wording.

Behind Door #3
Personalized stationery--this could be with your name, initials, thank you cards, birthday cards or quote cards.

Behind Door #4
Either a 5x7 or 8x10 photo from my Tulip Festival photo post, choose here.

Congratulations and thanks for commenting on my blog! --Jill

 I emailed her back and said I would like a CD of fun songs for Autumn & I to jam out and dance to in the car. Here is what she sent me, and I love that she put what each song is…very thoughtful. Those are some great jammin’ songs and I know Autumn & I are going to have a blast listening to these songs. Thank you again, Jill for the giveaway and the cute paper and great CD!

Dad had gone and picked up Autumn from daycare at 4:00 b/c he was out running errands. When I got done w/ work, I went over there and made some parmesan cheese grilled chicken that we dip in honey and Dad did some grilled corn on the cob. It was a good little meal if I do say so myself. After eating, Dad asked Autumn if she wanted to have FHE (Family Home Evening) and she said, “Yeah. We go swim, Papa.” So, that’s what we did for our activity. She was so good and jumped off the diving board a few times and practiced her monkey walk around the pool and swimming w/ her face in the water. After swimming for a few hours, we came in and had creamsicles for dessert.

Then we came home and it was time for a bath and bed. A few weeks ago I got some free Bath & Body works body wash/bubble bath from their Aromatherapy collection and I used that tonight for Autumn’s bath and it smells INCREDIBLE! It's their Sleep Lavender Chamomile kind, and I could smell it in the other room it was so good! I definitely recommend going out and getting some b/c it is worth the money. I was so tired from being up late Sunday night and then having to get up early today that I went to bed at 10:00 and slept like a baby!
