Selah says buy: Red Stamp iPhone App

I was recently introduced to the free Red Stamp app via Pinterest and I LOVE IT. It's such a cute way to send a quick note or message to somebody, especially personalized thank you notes for gifts for your baby.

The app isn't just for thank you notes. You can also send notes of congratulations or quick hellos. These can be sent electronically (free) or through the mail ($2 for 1, but the price goes down to $1 if you want to send a lot).

I wish I had this when Selah was born for quick thank you notes for meals dropped off or gifts mailed (before I forgot to send them in a timely manner). I'll definitely use this with the next.

Go get it now. You'll love it even if you don't need it for kid's thank you notes. :)

The happier type of shower!

This past weekend, I was the lady of honor at a bridal shower thrown by my two lovely aunts. Things were traditional: tasty foods, cheesy games and lovely relatives. It was wonderful. :)

Scrumptious Petit Fours


All of these wonderful women came out to celebrate with me in the pouring down rain.

One of my favorite gifts that I'll never use for the intended purpose.
These gloves will never clean toilets if I have anything to do with it.

Floods?


The light area above is the Yellow River. News reports claimed the river was about 100 feet outside it's banks.


Hills in Georgia + Gravity + a ton of rain = the water running down the hill to our house and our neighbor's house and yard.

The water pooling outside the house, getting reading to invade the basement.



These pictures were taken pretty early on, too.

We were lucky. Several were not.
