It’s A Very Good Day
I have a horrid virus. And a wicked sore throat. And a messy house. But those are all just minor annoyances because:
I’ve been invited to be a part of the fantastic Lilybee paper company design team! WOOOO!
I. Am. So. EXCITED.
And, as if that weren’t enough, tomorrow I am getting up very, very early to brave (and I do mean brave) three airports with three small children to go back to the beautiful prairie that I love and which runneth through my veins continually- Fargo, North Dakota! I haven’t been home in four years. Maggie was a baby. Jonas was three.
I get to see my Grandpa! And old friends who I miss! And new friends I’ve made on the internet! How cool is that? In fact, if you’re local- drop me a line- maybe we can all hook up at Lindenwood or something.
(They were THAT little last time). Ok- and beautifully, unless the plane literally falls from the sky- it will have to be a smoother trip than the last trip home part one, part two, part three. (Only read if you want quite the adventure). Oh and how we got home. (good gravy, how long have I been blogging? I must never shut up.)
Yup- this will be A PIECE OF CHOCOLATE LAYER CAKE.
I’m so stoked I don’t know how I’ll sleep tonight.
Sorry that you don’t feel well! Good luck with your trip through 3 airports but it will be fabulous for you to see your family and friends! Congrats on the Lily Bee Design Team!

Have fun in Fargo! My husband and I met and then married in Fargo! He’s from Bismarck and I’m from Wisconsin and we ended up back in Wisconsin after living there for a few years. Lots of good memories in Fargo!
