Tweet Dreams


I had such a fun day yesterday! Several weeks ago I had seen a little girl's trundle bed at Costco that I knew would be just perfect for Anna's room. The bed is from the Hailey Collection by CafeKid. But, because of our vow to only spend cash on any remaining house expenditures, I had to wait until my check for grading AP calculus exams arrived. So, I was thrilled when Jim picked me up from school Monday carrying the check that had arrived in the mail. Of course, I wanted to go straight to Costco, but was apprehensive, fully expecting the bed to be completely sold out. Would you believe that the only bed left was the floor model - at a significantly discounted price??!! There was one little missing part, but Jim got an immediate response to his email inquiry, and the wonderful people at CafeKid are sending us a replacement. Now that's what I call good customer service!

I couldn't go to sleep last night until I had made the vinyl wall art that I had designed and made with my new Silhouette electronic die cutting machine. I first learned about this amazing little machine on Ashley's really fun blog, Make it and Love it. Jim helped me put up the wall art, and I can't stop going into Anna's room to look at the beautiful bed and beautiful wall art. Now, we just need Anna to come for a visit and sleep in her new bed!

Princess Anna Grace will be more than thrilled with her beautiful room. It will be such an exciting moment to watch her walk in there.
