Out of Season

Hi friends!  Merry day after Christmas!  Our boys have been very sick with RSV for the past week, so all of our Christmas plans were cancelled and we've just been sticking around home (and the doctor's office).  Fortunately, much of our family lives close by so the boys got several visits yesterday with lots of presents to open for their first Christmas ever.  So even though we weren't feeling 100% and didn't make it to any of the holiday gatherings we had planned, we still had a very merry Christmas surrounded by those we love!

Being sick myself and not sleeping for several nights due to having to monitor the boys' breathing, there hasn't been much time for stamping lately.  So I was looking through my files this morning and found this card I made for the twins' first Easter that I never posted.  Those first few months were such a crazy time for us!  Oh, who am I kidding.... every minute since they were born has been a crazy time!  {grin}  Anyhow, I used the sweet little Hoppy Easter set from Verve, which is 50% off right now during our Good Buy 2012 Sale.


That's right, it's time for Verve's annual Good Buy sale.  Everything is marked down 10-50% off and if you enter the code SHOPHOP in the gift code box at checkout you'll get an EXTRA 10% off!  Woohoo!  A bargain for you... and less inventory for us to count come January 1.  Double woohoo!


Okay, I'll let you get back to your post-Christmas fun.  Hope you're having a wonderful week!  Thanks so much for stopping by.

Sorry to here about your boys. That is so scary. Hope they are doing better and letting you rest, lol. Rest is an old friend that rarely visits once you become a parent.
Here is to a Happy and Sick free New Year.
Hugs, Dangina
