h&g. hi and g'bye.


just a brief post to say..

01. hello!

02. i have so much to tell. a full report on our m&m photo shoot will post soon, maybe saturday. you can see from the photo above, we had a ball. my mom and i have never had such permission to ham it up for the camera. it definitely deserves a detailed description, written in my own little corner computer space. i can't wait to tell the tale of our time with justin hackworth. he's everything you'd want a hip professional photographer to be. take a peek at a few of our photos on justin's blog. and my mom wrote a good review of our experience here.

03. benji and i are still in transit, hoping he sleeps the whole way home today. he has had just as much fun and spoilage as i have on this quick rendezvous. benji's eyes twinkle when opa enters the room. he has charmed this place wholly.

04. am excited to announce the mother's day giveaways officially start tomorrow. right here. you won't want to miss this lineup, i promise. each shop will be featured for an entire day, you have til midnight (or my bedtime) to enter to win. i will close the comments and post the winner on each giveaway post. just a hint, you need either a blog, website or an email attached to your comment to win. otherwise you forfeit your prize. i can't tell you how sad it is when that happens. and i can't tell you how much i chuckle when anonymous enters to win.

05. i got in on some serious video game and pumpkin chocolate chip cookie action over at whit's last night. i tucked benj in and went over for awhile. i haven't played video games with her since our super mario kart summer. it was completely fun. love having my best friend live across the street from my parents. how awesome is that?!

06. am of course missing dan to pieces after a few days apart. however, chatting into the late night darkness–like we would when we were dating–is my favorite part about being apart.

07. a big happy birthday shoutout to darling summer harms. she is a favorite penpal of mine and the real reason i believe friendship can bloom within blogland.

more later. am headed home.

p.s. sorry about all the numbered lists as of late. you know how i love a list.
