Congratulations Weekend Giveaway Winners!

I had such a good time reading all of your funny jokes and stories!

Now about that pitiful note I left yesterday: The second night we were there, Saturday night, I got food poisoning and was sick sick sick! I mean sick! So I spent a lot of time in the hotel bathroom. Yuck. Luckily we did get to visit Biltmore on Sunday and it was beautiful! I didn't feel all that well but I still had fun. I always have a hard time getting back to normal after that kind of sickness, it takes me a few days to eat and get my strength back, but now I am fine and ready for work! I will be back soon with pictures of my bag (no sunshine today), and something else that I'm a little nervous about, so stay tuned!

Yuck Samantha, I hope you feel better soon. Can't wait to hear/see what you have for us!
So sorry to hear you were sick while on vacation. Yuck!

I'm sitting in a hospital room with my Sweet Girl. Thought I would check my blogs before hubby takes the laptop home for a couple of days. What a wonderful surprise to see my name listed as one of the pattern winners. That just made my day! Thank you so much!

Samantha, I'm so sorry you're sick - what a vacation memory! I've had food poisoning before: take a vitamin, it works like a charm! The hospital would give a shot of B12, so I save myself the expense and take whatever multivitamin I have on hand. Thank you so much for the Miss Molly pattern! My daughter and I are so excited about winning the pattern, and I can't wait to make her new dress. My email is labures419@gmail.com.

Sorry to hear you were sick on vacation! That happened to my hubby the last vacation we took before having kids and it ruinned the end of the vacation and took him quite a while to recover. Glad you were able to recover pretty quickly and enjoy the rest of your vacation!! Thanks so much for the Miss Madeline pattern. I'm so excited, I NEVER win anything, so this was a nice surprise!!

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
