Well I know Crumpet has been working really hard to prepare.........
Even my husband was brimming with unbridled enthusiasm!
In fact we were so excited when we found out you were coming....we got the place all dolled up! I first planned on dressing my blog in a skimpy little number and a pair of stilettos..but thanks to Linda at RS Designs...that wasn't necessary. I'm thrilled with what she did with the place.

Hi Nikki, and congrats!
I love the new makeover. When I first clicked over here I thought I was at the wrong place.
Have a great weekend, and enjoy the fame, you deserve it.
Your blog is gorgeous, love your posts, and congrats on being the big winner at SITS!!
Congrats on being featured:) Love the new bright and cheery lay out. Gotta tell you though that I just about left an accident in my chair. Hubby had the speakers up loud so your music came on blaring LOUD!!!
I love the doggy biscuts, look good enough to eat! I was a reluctant blog surfer, didn't want to invade others privacy, but SITS has invited me to see some pretty amazing women out in the world, I love your blog!
I'm new to SITS but wanted to stop by and say hi. I love the cheery background. I recently under went a cheery change. I absolutely LOVE the pig.
Love your new background too! So cheerful!
Congrats to you Nikki!
You crack me up celebrating National Dictionary Day! (Do I dare admit, it's one of my fave reads during commode time?)
Can I be honest? The pig freaked me out just a little bit. I'm weird that way. Don't worry it's not you....it's me!
And...can I just say how deelish those dog snacks look? (If nobody were looking.....I just might...you know...take one and eat it! There I said it!)
Enjoy your day!
Very fun place you've got here, Nikki! I am not so ebullient, but I can appreciate a girl with a good vocabulary. My daughter's second grade teacher almost laughed at me (in an affectionate way because she knows me from before) when at conferences I asked her if it was normal that my daughter doesn't conjugate irregular verbs correctly yet. She assured me that it was.
Congratulations on your big win! I am way too busy being jealous but hopeful over the Photoshop thing to be upset with you--so just go ahead and hang the thing up! :-)
Congrats on your SITS day!!
Your NEW blog design is ADORABLE... I hope you win my stationery today... the sunflowers will look perfect on HERE!
This post is FAB... I needed a little laugh and you NEVER disappoint!
ENJOY your day and George!
Come along to Africa tomorrow with moi... maybe a present will be waiting for you with the elephants, tigers or lions... OH MY!

Congratulations and yay for the Gospel! :) I love your blog and your family is beautiful!!!

So...for the spaghetti mess, my husband HATES when Moose gets messy like this so I usually get the clean-up duty. But I don't mind one bit. I hope I'm in this "I'm ok with a messy kid" stage for a long while.
But you've been there & done that. Your kids are beautiful.
thanks for your comment on my blog..i think you failed to see that I was joking and being sarcastic. I really don't believe anyone is the antichrist I think I mentioned that later in the post.
Love your dogs and your doggie treats!
