Merry Christmas

Yes Santa, I have been a bad blogger!!!

This school year I gained a new job - Yearbook Advisor! It has been a challenge, but so much fun! I get paid to snap pictures and make layouts with the kiddos at school. Fun & Frustrating at times .. it has consumed me and my time.

I have neglected  blogging, sewing and other crafty things. 

I hope to be a better blogger this up and coming year as Mary Martha & Co. go on new adventures and set out forward into the new year - moving! Yes, not far ,but crossing the state lines we shall!!

May your holiday seasons be filled with love & happiness. May you all be blessed as those who are no longer with us watch over us and keep us safe in our travels!

Ahhhh ..... Summer Sights

Hello Again :)

Hello - and I am the stranger - not you! 

This past year I have been totally sucked into my new amazing job! I loved every minute of it - even on the days I thought that I might go crazy! I am not even sure what the best part of it is, but let me tell a few things I totally loved.

1. My kiddos - they inspire me and make me feel special! (I love my SA kiddos!!!)

2. Reading - I have found a NEW love for it!!

3. Authors - meeting Lauren Oliver @ SA and then meeting Mary Kay Andrews this summer - SO FUN!!!

4. People I work with - We have an amazing group of people @ SA - I love them all for different reasons!

5. It's just a great job!~!!

Well, we have been beach hopping since Graduation Day - Wilmington to LODO Land , Kitty Hawk to see Claire & Stephanie , then back to Duck to see Mary Kay Andrews and then Nags Head to Courtney and Will. ~ Ahhhh!!!! Plus we are not done with our beach hopping either. We haven't had family vacation yet! HA! OR our annual July trip to see Courtney and Will - that was just a sneaky trip we just took.

Hope you all are having a super summer!!

If your kiddos are looking for something to read - pop over to www.samdilday.blogspot.com - lists for all ages!!!

If you are looking for a grown up read - try Summer Rental by Mary Kay Andrews - AWESOME!!! I loved every page and it is set in Nags Head. Right now I am reading The Help by Kathryn Stockett - very interesting book and thanks to everyone who recommended it!!!

Don't forget me!

Life has been so crazy! I forgot my passwords to my blog, wondered what I was gonna do , ugh ..... Then finally found my passwords on my iPad - yeah!

Now to get out of school - 7 more days! I can do this and will catch you up on what I have been up to!

Until then check me out at www.samdilday.blogspot.com

Wow! Nine Years!!

Nine years!

 Nine years of Momma , nine years of help me, nine years of snuggles -  nine years I wouldn't trade for anything!!!

We celebrated these nine years ALL weekend long! Starting with a slumber party that went quite slumberless, birthday pancakes at Walter's, family over for cake and ice cream too, another sleepover with a single special friend - what a weekend!!! :)

Happy Birthday my dear, sweet loverbug!
