Thirty-One is my new business

Hello All,

I recently became involved with a direct selling company called Thirty-One.  The Thirty-One business is based on Proverbs 31 and the virtues of a noble woman.  Through Thirty-One, I hope to earn our family some much needed extra income while having fun doing it.  I picked Thirty-One because the company has a biblical backing and I think their products are awesome.  I have already purchased several items for myself and family. 

Through Thirty-One, I am selling all kinds of bags/totes/organizers/lunch-boxes, etc.  Anything you need to organize your life, I have it.  Almost everything in the catalog is able to be embroidered.  Take a look for yourself at the catalog through my website and you are sure to find something you need.  

There are two ways that you can help my business grow.  First, you can go directly to my website and place an order.

Or, you can host a party at your home or have a catalog party.  It's easy, fun, and best of all, you can earn free products!  If you have any questions, please feel free to email or call me.  I will be happy to help!

Thanks for reading my post today, more posts to come soon!

Summer Fun!!

Since last Summer was fully encompassed by Emme's surgery, I wanted to write about all the fun things we have planned for this Summer.  We're marking the 1 year anniversary of Emme's Craniofacial Reconstruction in style.  

First, we plan on playing in the backyard as much as possible when we are home.  Emme loves to be outside and you can see by this picture:

Of course, when we go outside, you have to be armed and ready for everything.  That means water toys galore- it's hot here in TN- sunscreen, Popsicles, bug spray, reading material for Mom, drinks, citronella candles, and as the day winds down- something to throw on the grill.  All of these things remind me of the beach, so while I bake outside and inside my house stays nice and clean, I think about Anna Maria Island and the blue water there.  

Second, Parent's Day Out!  Yesterday was E's first trip to PDO and let me just tell you, it was great for me.  I'm pretty sure she enjoyed it too, but man oh man did I need that down time.  In fact, when she goes back tomorrow, I'm using that time to pack for our trip to Texas.  Needless to say, the $135.00 a month tuition is well worth it.

Third, Travel!  Where are you going?  We are saving Florida for the Fall when it's less crowded this year, but we do have a few small trips planned.  Branson is on our list for June.  Shannon's singing at the Branson Gospel Music Convention and it's one of our favorite touristy places to visit.  If you haven't been in awhile, you should go.  There is so much to do and it's all family friendly.  I think people have this vision of Branson as an older folks hangout, but I promise, it's not!  Check out Branson Landing if you decide to go.

Fourth, find something to do that's cheap and fun in your town.  I know we plan on going to the Nashville Zoo at Grassmere.  Pack a picnic and make it cheap.  Also, if your little one likes movies, you should see if your local theater is doing free movie showings.  Our local Regal theater is having free screenings all summer long on Tuesday's.  Click this link for the schedule.  Emme's to young for free bowling, but that's also an option.  Check out www.kidsbowlfree.com for more information.  It's two free games of bowling everyday of the summer.  You can't beat that!

I hope your Summer is full of fun.  I know it will go by way too fast and school will be back in session way too soon, but I plan on enjoying every moment of it. I may not blog for awhile, as I prepare to enjoy some summer fun in Texas for the next week or so.  Until then...
