Well the voteing’s over and the community has picked. Congratulations Sprellen, Laura, and Angie!! They all had just WONDERFUL pages for the contest and they’re all very active in the community!! Very well deserving of the win 
Just wanted to thank everyone again who might have cast a vote for me during the contest!! It meant and still means a lot to me Hope everyone had a chance or took the opportunity to look at all those great charities too!! Maybe someday I can do something to pay it forward to mine. I’ll figure it out.
I won’t lie and say I wasn’t disappointed a little. I am. That’s OK, I’ll live. There has to be winners and losers in everything. Some day I’ll have my turn maybe I know I said I didn’t need the affirmation of my peers, that it’s nice but not everything?? Welllll….I still feel that way. It’s nice. It’s truly not everything!! But….well…guess it’s a little nicer than I originally stated!! lol 
Think that’s where the disappointment comes in, knowing that in the eyes of my peers I don’t quite have it. I won’t give up creating or posting though that’s for sure!!
I’m very happy for the winners, they must be sooo thrilled!!! I still hold to my view that we should “choose not a life of imitation” ~quote from “Can’t Stop” the Red Hot Chili Peppers I still like my pages for me and for my family! That’s part of what makes/made me Queen of my Own Domain!! I’m sticking true to me always!!
Hope everyone does something special for the Father’s in their lives today!! Dh has already had a pretty good Father’s Day filled with homemade cards, breakfast in bed and some cool gifts the kids made in school and have been saving They are soo cute!! I felt kind of bad cause there wasn’t the funds to buy him a gift….I did get some gifts bought for me on Mother’s day. sigh. He assured us it’s OK though and we can catch up to that another time, he’s a great daddy and I’m so glad I chose him to be daddy of my children
Have a good one!! Thanks again everyone!! Now thanks to the votes and this awesome contest I do get to do a Shutterfly book! It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long, long time and finally I can!!
