You had a busy summer. School started today for us. A bittersweet time--end of summer freedom , but excitement of a new year. Hope to see you at an event soon.
My family had a rally good summer too. We traveled to Australia and visited family there but it was great to be home.
I like your blog and this is a really good method of documenting your holidays. Gives me idea for the kids next project.
Keep up the good work. I feel you should network with the bizymoms Yonkers community.
Wow!!! That sure sounds exciting!
