Superstah!

Today was Julia's last day of preschool (I weep!) and the last day of gymnastics until the fall. The class did a cute dance, then each child showed off their mad skillz. At the end, they each received a medal. I asked Julia to let me take some pictures, and this is what I got. Sigh. I don't know where she gets it from.

 

She is a crazy person.


And remember when I did a giveaway a couple of weeks ago with a FABULOUS MYSTERY PRIZE, which Scout won? Well, I can reveal the prizes now, as she's received her prizes.

You can pretty much forget about any gift giving quandry you have from here on out, because I have found the number one source for awesomeness on all the internets: www.perpetualkid.com.

Behold, Scout's FABULOUS MYSTERY PRIZE(S):
The perfect thing for when you're stuck on a dinner cruise with a Celine Dion impersonator and need a stiff drink.
For a kick ass baker. Or just a baker that likes to kick ass.
This really needs no explanation.

I was thisclose to getting her the Squirrel Underpants, but practicality won out. Although, Scout may have some squirrels running around her yard with their junk all hanging out and could really use the squirrel underpants. You never know.

Let this be a lesson to you, dear readers - when I say there is going to be a FABULOUS PRIZE, you bet your bippy it's going to be fabulous. Keep coming back, because there will be something soon to celebrate my ONE HUNDREDTH POST!

Pull Up a Chair

The lovely ladies over at Triad Moms on Main find great hilarity in my personal humiliation, so they're running my post 'I'm Sorry I Peed on the Phone' as their Sunday Funny this week.

(And if you like me - you really really like me, you can vote for SFC over at Circle of Moms, where I'm holding my own against some pretty big blogs.)

It's a Giveaway!

I'm guest blogging over at Triad Moms on Main today, so check it out! If you're local, they have great information on just about everything going on in the area for families, as well as amazing directories, advice, anecdotes and more.

If you're stopping by SFC from Triad MOM, welcome! To celebrate new readers, I'm going to have my first ever giveaway. Everyone who comments on this post between now and Friday, March 25 will be eligible to win $20 to spend on their choice of one of my favorite things listed below. A winner will be chosen at random on Saturday, March 26.

Thirty-One Gifts - Cute, stylish, functional, and reasonably priced. This has been the year of Thirty-One, as I've given products for teacher gifts, and bought a lot (a lot) for myself. That link goes to my dear friend Nicole's page, who is not only an ass-kicking businesswoman, she's also one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

Queen Creek Olive Mill - My in-laws brought me a few delicious bottles on their visit last summer. It is amazing - so fresh and light and delicious. If you've never bothered to search out and use good olive oil, this is the perfect opportunity.

Balega Running Socks - These are stupidly expensive socks (between $9-$14 a pair, remember how cheap I am?) and worth every penny. It's like putting your feet into a cloud, they are so soft. Katie loves to wear my socks for some reason, but she's been told to keep her paws off these. These are all mine.

Calling Cards by Artsy Nikki - I just ordered these beautiful and very reasonably priced calling cards from the lovely Nikki on Etsy. Have your people call my people.

Kernel Kustard  - This one's only good if you're local. Creamy, delicious, and in amazing varieties. I love the Lick the Bowl jumble and the hot caramel corn the most. The non-sweet things are pretty good, too.

Winners will be announced right here, so be sure to check back! Thanks for stopping by, I hope you'll make a habit of it.
