it's been a year...time for a giveaway!
It's been a year since Melissa and I started our little blog. It has been, and continues to be, an awesome part of our lives. Who knew turning on the computer each morning could be filled with so much happy anticipation? We've met so many amazing people and have been inspired in countless ways by this creative, nurturing blog community. So thank you for stopping by. And thank you, again and again, for your generous and encouraging comments, each of which we savor and really, really appreciate!
We'd like to mark our small anniversary by giving away this simple yellow linen shift dress, made to size for the short person in your life (between 18 mo. and 5T). Would you like us to send it to you, packaged up adorably in brown paper? If so, leave a comment, and we'll chose the winner (randomly, of course) on Tuesday.
So again, thank you.

Melissa and Lynne

Lo-Hovve it! It reminds me of the clothes I wore when I was little (back when my mom made little people clothes). Wish I'd kept them - would love this one.

Happy Blog Birthday to two hugely talented people!!
Love that little dress, and the perfect shade to speak volumes about sweetness, happiness and pure optimism for the year ahead. Congrats
What a wonderful giveaway! Congrats on one year of the blog.
I just found this really fun green bottle with raised polk-a-dots on it at a second hand store this week-end. I turned it into a soap dispenser for my kitchen sink, and for the last few days as I am doing my dished ( which I must say I really hate to do ) I catch myself smiling at this bottle and how happy I am that I found it because it's pretty fun to look at and I love the feel of it.
Checking in on your blog every week gives me this same smile. I love to see what you guys are up to and I know someday I will learn to sew for my girls because of your work.
Thanks for all the inspiration and smiles!
