surprise!
surprise!
surprise!
it is a virtual baby shower for my bloggy buddy kelly over at view along the way!!
she is expecting a little girl and i’m so excited for her! she and her husband andy already have one adorable as all get out boy named weston and they will be adding to their family very soon. i’m so excited to celebrate this with her and i’m excited all her friends are involved too!
i met kelly purely by chance one day when i somehow landed on her blog. she wrote a post about assembling a diy upholstered headboard and bed and it totally and complete grabbed my attention. it was funny and informative and honest. i was hooked after that. over the past few months it has been fun to watch kelly’s blog grow and get to know her better. pretty soon i will even get to meet her in real life and hopefully share some fun stories with her and get to meet her family.
she is truly a woman of passion, purity, honesty and is full of one liners and great information. if you haven’t seen her blog yet then definitely head over and check it out. matter of fact, you should go over there anyways and say congratulations to her and her growing family! go on now – go leave her some love!!
also – make sure to check out all the others lovely gals involved too! each one brought their own special gift to the party and a sweet message for kelly!
