LOOOOONG Day...and a WINNER!

Well, I normally do not take part in random jokes or pranks on April Fool's Day, and today was no exception...But the DAY had a joke for me!!! I had a very long list of things I needed to accomplish today, and as the day unfolded, I realized that my "TO~DO" list was NOT going to happen...No Fooling.
Why, you ask...well, the morning started great...kiddos out of bed..CHECK. Kiddos to school on time...CHECK. Photograph a few layouts for reveals...CHECK...E-mail photos to Skye's teacher for the year book...CHECK...Post said reveals...HALF CHECK...My internet went out in the middle of the 2nd one. While I HATE that my small town is rapidly growing into a city...I equally hate the small town internet service!!!

SO....proceeded with the day in hopes of doing the reveal a little later. Well, ran some errands, sent some texts and made a few return calls about cakes...and then picked Sky up at school. Somewhere between lunch and nap, she decides to play in the sand pile...totally cool with that, I am trying to get my reveal done since the internet is back on. Unfortunately, before I got it posted...she come in the house bleeding from her foot. She had decided to get a shovel from her Daddy's truck **with him watching by the way*** and go play in the sand with that instead of the plastic shovels. Well, she dropped the shovel right on the top of her foot and it split it wide open. There goes the rest of my day! Had to clean her up, calm her down and put her into the truck to go to the minor ER. A few hours and $125 later, they decided that the stitches weren't pertinent, and went ahead with glue and a butterfly bandage. I finally got home around 8 pm, fixed dinner, sent a couple of kiddos off to spend the night with friends since they are out of school tomorrow, bathed the kid who can not get her foot wet, put them all in bed, and sooooo want to collapse but still have things to do! AAAGGHHH!!! LOLOL.

Good news is...I drew a winner!! Thank you all for your sweet comments about my son and his accomplishment! It was certainly a proud moment for both him and myself.

After putting everyone's name once and those of you who became a follower three times...I had my husband draw a name, and that name was......................................................................................................PEGGY!
