thanks!!!

Dear Jen,
My package came today! YAY!!!
I love the apron - can't wait to put it to use on the next batch of cookies or cupcakes I make! I don't want to fold it up in a drawer either - I'm trying to figure out a way to hang it proudly in the kitchen without being a big dork.

Conner went absolutely nuts for the I Spy Pillow - first it was "this is awesome" - then it was "look mommy, a ..." (repeated numerous times) - then it was laying on the kitchen floor "this is SO comfy, mommy!!!" - repeated all over again when Daddy got home!I can't wait to take it on our big road trip this summer!!

I wish I'd had my camera ready when Abby first saw the doll. Her eyes truly lit up and she grinned her head off!!! (She then proceeded to try and untie the blue ribbons from her ponytails. Hmmm... I don't think so, sweetie!) It will probably sit on a shelf in her room for a month or two, mostly because I'm selfish and want to enjoy it a little before she chews up the yarn (a weird phase she's in) or pulls out the ponytails.

What marvelous handiwork, and such thoughtful gifts for my kids too. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

swap this

Dear Jen,
You said you like pink - orange and turquoise - and a little bit of green. I did what I could. Enjoy!
Do you think your daughter would like to draw a little something too?
I know she's a little young, but she'll want one just like her sister, right?
You live near Lake Michigan, right? Well, closer than I do for sure. I'm jealous! Enjoy the swimming this summer with your new toteable towel. And I hope your oldest daughter enjoys her new monogrammed pillowcase! (I forgot to take pictures of those things. oops.)

And last but not least... a little something special for your spring/ summer kitchen table - or the girl's room - or your room for that matter!
Hope you loved the package! I had fun thinking up these fun projects and expanding my color palette.
Fondly, your swap partner,
Beth

P.S. Crafty Mama - thanks for hooking us up!
