Happy Memorial Day!

Hope you all are having an enjoyable day!  Sammie and I attended the parade in downtown Crete today with some friends.  It was fun!  Sammie came home with a bag ful of candy and a couple of flags.  We did have to deal with the cicadas.  They have really invaded the downtown area.  We don't have that many here...yet!  They were everywhere and kept landing on us.  Ewwww!!!  But anyway, here are a couple pics of Sammie at the parade...

The parade is finally starting!!

I just emailed a newsletter with current promotions, classes, and the list of retiring stamps sets I have left for sale.  If you didn't receive it and want to, please contact me at stampinwithcarol@aol.com.  Enjoy the rest of your day!!

My Little Pony!

Sammie did a great job last night at the "Spring Sing".  She did sing and she did do the hand gestures and she had a good time!  It was cute to watch!

Cicadas and Spring Sing...

Shortly, we are off to Sammie's program at school...the "Spring Sing".  They are doing "Old MacDonald" and "Open Shut Them".  She's even dressing in costume as a horse.  Should be really cute!! 

Also, spotted some Cicadas at the school and some surrounding houses today.  Not the cutest bug!  No sign of them here at the house though.  But we do have a Mommy Robin sitting on a nest in the crook of our down spout we've been watching.

Hate to cut this short, but I have to hit the showers.  Update you all tomorrow.

-Carol

P.S.  If you are interested in any of the retiring sets I have for sale, please contact me ASAP.  They are going quickly. 

The list is out!

I have just sent a newsletter to my mailing list of my retiring stamp sets for sale.  It should appear in your mailbox shortly.  If you are not on my mailing list and would like to see my sets for sale, please contact me.

I'm back!

Yep, back from my trip to Florida.  We had a great visit with my family and I was even able to get away with my husband for a weekend to celebrate our recent anniversary.  We visited the Lowry Park Zoo in Tampa.  Sammie got to ride a camel, feed a giraffe, go on the sky ride, and watch an elephant take a bath in a waterfall.  Oh, and run in the fountains and get really wet!  I took Sammie to Great Explorations.  It's an excellent children's museum and she loved it!  She shopped at the grocery store, made pizzas, took care of animals, played in water and became a fire fighter.  My sister took me to a tea store and I enjoyed a Very Vanilla ice tea!  Even brought some home and enjoyed one this afternoon, too!  And my weekend on Sanibel Island was wonderful!  The food was awesome!  We ate at the bubble room, which is a very eclectic place that decorates with antiques, pics of movie stars and Christmas artifacts.  Very interesting place!  The hotel was nice and very relaxing.  It was fun to watch my husband make his own belgium waffle at the continental breakfast!  But we're home now and settling back into our routine.  Sammie has a lot of things coming up in school, including a Spring Sing next Wednesday night.  And an "end of the year" BBQ picnic.  So much to do, so little time...

You probably received my recent newsletter with the current promotions and class schedule.  If not, let me know and I'll email you one.  You can always view my class schedule and current specials on my website at www.carolgottardo.stampinup.net.  You don't want to miss the retirement party this Saturday.  RSVP now!  I'll have many, many retiring stamp sets for sale at a discount!  Come and check it out!

I'll post some pics later from our vacation.  I know you want to see them!
