This seems to happen in many of my giveaways. Someone I know in real life wins! Mary has lots of little granddaughters that I'm sure love Grammy-made dresses!

I came across this post from a great blog, All that is Good.

I'm going to emulate Trina's post with one of my own. (Emulate sounds much nicer than copy, doesn't it? :D )

1 Year ago: I was sadly nearing the end of a wonderful nanny job for a wonderful family, but excitedly looking forward to having my own baby girl soon!

2 Years ago: I had just finished my final year teaching fourth grade and we were deciding whether or not to get a puppy. Oh did we ever!

4 Years ago: The crazy final preparations for our wedding were going on. Our reception site had to be changed a few weeks before the wedding, but that's another post for another day!

5 Years ago: Several friends and I went to a Red Sox game together. For one, it was her birthday (and we are going to celebrate her birthday tomorrow with a baseball game too!), for one it was his first Red Sox game, and another one would be my future husband. :D I also got a sunburn that day because I forgot sunscreen. If you know me, I'm a sunscreen nazi. When it finally turned from burn to tan, you could still see the tan lines for over a year. It's still referred to as the June 11th tan.

10 Years ago: I was reveling in the end of crazy spring semester and getting ready to spend the summer blowing bubbles, drawing with sidewalk chalk, and pouring juice for the children I was babysitting.
