Have A Question?

Hey everyone! Once again, I have been slacking on the posts! I just can't figure out what to post about! :) So..... let's do another Question and Answer post!!! You question, I will answer. I already have a couple of questions to answer, so let's do some more!

Tomorrow starts giveaway week over at The Vintage Pearl. *Shey*[B] is up on the first day! Go on over and enter to win! There will be a lot of great shops offering up goodies on her blog, so go check it out! ;)

Tuesday evening my kids will be home!!! I can't believe how fast the time went! It's crazy to think 3 weeks passed in a blur. Mike and I have had a lot of fun! We have gone out to eat, stayed in - watched the complete True Blood series, and some other shows as well. I have read a few books. We moved! Etc etc. This time with Mike has been invaluable to us! It's been super great. We are looking forward to having our kids back, though. We miss them terribly!!

OK, off I go to enjoy more alone time with husband. He is working on the couch, and I am going to read. ;)

Go ahead... ask me some questions if you want. You can leave them in the comments section or you can email them to me: shealynnATgmail.com

A salt water pool!!! :D Salt water pools are easier on your skin, eyes, and swim suits. ;)

Well, that's the new place... I will get pictures of the rest of it when I am completely done unpacking! I love this house, and know we will live here for a long time!

Moving went pretty smoothly other than the dresser falling into an antique cabinet and shattering the glass. Oh, and my husband swearing that we are never ever ever ever moving again. LOL! I hope that's true. At least I hope to not move for a VERY long time! ;)

OK! I am off to read. What's new? Anything?

Her blog is great! She blogs about anything from quoting phenomenal Bible verses to sewing pretty things, tutorials, giveaways, and more!!! Oh, and we can not forget about her 3 BEAUTIFUL little girls!!! Go see for yourself. They are darling.

The funny thing about Julie [said blog's owner] is that we went to the same high school! Her husband was in the band, The Supertones. My best friend at the time and I used to go to a lot of Supertones concerts! Julie knows a lot of my friends from high school too. It totally cracked us up to find out how small this world really is. I follow Julie on Twitter, and she follows me. We tweet back and forth to each other daily, and we had a nice phone conversation a couple of weeks ago. It's so fun reconnecting! :) Julie, I look forward to many more phone conversations for years to come!

Today, Julie has offered 1 person ANY ONE THING in her shop! Ummmm, awesome, right? You bet! She makes to totally awesome, Messy Flower Headbands, pins and clips!!! Tell me you've see her shop!!! No? Well, you will after today!
