It's a gorgeous day here in the Altanta area, and I'm spending it outside with hubby and the kids. We were up ridiculously early, for a "day off," to merged with the lighter-than-normal rush hour traffic and arrived at the French Embassy in Buckhead by 8:45 a.m. The three "Frenchies" in the family now have their updated passports for our trip to France in June. Now back home, they have zipped over to a gardening shop to buy a truckload of top soil, and I have a minute to dash off a quick blog post.
Here are some great contests you don't want to miss out on!

Sounds like you've already had a great day. :) Thanks for the links and enjoy the rest of your weekend. Happy Easter. :)
Awesome, what part of France are you and your family going to visit?
Thanks so much Nicole for promoting my contest and the comment. I bet you do feel like an outsider there, you're further south than I am. I've never been to Atlanta, but I visited Savannah and Tybee Island back in high school. Everyone seemed really nice there.
I just finished some gardening. It's supposed to be 85 here today. I love the warm weather. I can't wait until full summer. Have fun gardening.
Enjoy the time with your family Nicole. HAPPY EASTER!! :)
It's days like this that I don't mind living in Georgia! Beautiful! My in-laws are coming next Tuesday with tools and determination to help me transform the week tangles into a garden. I can't wait!
Enjoy the beautiful weekend and happy Easter!
That should read "weed tangles," not "week tangles." D'oh! ;-)
Hi Nicole, thanks for sharing about your day!
It IS a gorgeous day here in the Atlanta area, too bad I'm stuck in a dark office here in Alpharetta. Oh well, at least I get off at 3PM. Yay.
Thanks for the contest announcements too.
Shameless promotion:
Please visit my blog and comment today. I have a post by guest blogger Justine Dell where she shares an ACTUAL query letter of hers that found success.
She is a wonderful lady, always willing to help another writer and I would really like her to get the recognition she deserves.
Thanks!
Enjoy the family fun - thanks for the links :)
Sarah Jayne~ Have a great weekend, too!
Crimey~ We're staying with my in-laws in Vichy, west of Lyons. But, one of the three weeks we'll travel south into Provence, to show the kids the cities where they were born. To say I can't wait is a miserable understatement!!!!
Noelle~ My daughter spent three days on Tybee with the fourth grade. So beautiful there!
DL~ Happy Easter to you and yours!!
Summer~ Happy gardening with the in-laws. I'm "on break" from turning flower bed soil...looking forward to the buds but not the backache! LOL
