we put our xmas tree up last night...or i should say we attempted too. not so easy with 2 restless wee ones fighting over every ornament. this mama's patience was definitely tested but then that's why us moms can have a few sips (ok glasses) of eggnog and kahlua or anything with kahlua that is. mmmm....would taste good in my coffee this morning now that i think of it...ok, i digress. moving on.

ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway! The Downtown Cowl and Sweetheart Dress are my favorites...though I do love them all :D
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! I have always loved the Mallory cowl, and I would just like a daughter (especially one as cute as yours!) to make the junior version for. I don't think my sons would appreciate it as much...
ReplyDeletelisejackson000 (at) gmail (dot) com
So hard to choose, but I live in Northern Ontario and the sub zero temperatures are already here. So I will say the Mallory Cowl pattern. It looks SO WARM!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity.
