Book Status

The books are on their way!!! I'll have 200 advance copies next week :)

It's Divalicious!

 

So I am thrilled that my blog has a new look!!  Thank you to the amazing job of Candy at Divalicious Designs.  If the name of her business doesn't draw you in, take a look at her awesome website http://divalicous-designs.blogspot.com and extremely unique, modern & fun templates.  I e-mailed Candy last night about updating my blog and she had it up by this afternoon.  She is speedy, professional and a gorgeous work at home Mom of two little girls.  If you think you can't afford a professional looking website for your blog, you are wrong!  Contact Ms. Divalicious for a new update & blog makeover!

Now, I will say- I edited my blog Title artwork a smidge tonight.  (I hope you don't mind Candy).  There was cute kitty cat sitting on the top of the sofa, which I loved, but my husband said it was bad luck because we don't have a cat.  Being superstitious as I am, I erased the poor cute kitty in paint and added artwork from my illustrator, Pat Achilles, of my doggy George (a character in the book as well).  George is in heaven so I thought having him on my title banner may be lucky!

I hope you all like my new blog!!

We LOVE Pinkalicious the musical!!! A Hot PInk Review!

So tonight we took Katie and Cole to see Pinkalicious the musical in Doylestown, PA with some friends. Let me start by saying that Pinkalicious is one of our favorite children's books and if you can't tell by the color of my blog site, I have a bit of pinkititis myself! And since my daughter's nickname is "Cakes" because of her own love of cupcakes, of course we had to go! First, I feel lucky that we were able to go to this show completely free. Thank you to all that sponsored the show. Apparently the show is touring in Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, Texas, Iowa, and Illinois. So if you are lucky enough to live close enough to any of it's stops..Go Go Go! It really is a show that I would have bought tickets for and would highly recommend to others. The stage was bright and beautiful. If I worked at Pottery Barn, it would be my inspiration for my next line of girls bedding! The songs were fun and catchy for kids, the actors were extremely talented and had a great time getting the kids involved! My two year old son even sat through the show which ran about an hour or so! I give the show a HOT PINK REVIEW!

Warning:
My girlfriend just sent me an e-mail with the subject "Pink Problem" It read as follows:
"I have to tell you my poor girl was a bit traumatized in the car. Mostly our fault of course! She kept looking in the mirror and then asking her brothers if she was pink. After some investigation and interrogation, we figured out that she thought that the “pink cupcakes” were going to turn her pink. Too bad I’m not as evil as I appear, I could have had her eating green food for days!"

The show will also be in New York City and opens Saturday August 2nd- September 21st. Check out the website for more details on tours and shows: http://www.cupcakesforall.com/themusical.htm

ps. Thanks to Wegman's (AKA-by my kids "the train store") for giving out free pink cupcakes after the show!!
