The winner of the Thirty-one Bag giveaway thanks to consultant Katie Leach is…..

Ashley C!!!!

 I contacted Ashley and learned that she is a mommy teacher to “a beautiful little girl, married to an amazing man, and a college student who is also looking for a full time job!” She said she “loves every minute of it!”  🙂

Congrats Ashley and thanks to EVERYONE who participated in the giveaway….I will be re-reading all the comments to pick out another item to give away soon because of your great feedback.  I will also try to keep my daddy teachers in mind as well 🙂

I’m really excited to share my latest favorite “find” with you all. And the best news is that I actually get to SHARE my “find” with one lucky mommy teacher… so check this out and read carefully to see how you might get in on the action!

I just love this Organizing Utility Tote from “Thirty-One Gifts” consultant Katie Leach – I mean love. I love it for so many reasons…mommy teachers will love it for so many reasons:
This tote can be used as a diaper bag, teacher bag, gym bag, beach bag, overnight bag, purse, picnic bag, you name it!

The pattern pictured to the left is called black parisian pop and it is so pretty….it is one of my favorite patterns in the catalog.

Black Parisian Pop is the actual pattern I am giving away – it is NOT monogrammed – you can personalize it if you wish!

For more examples of what this pattern looks like check out the following page of the catalog by clicking HERE and a few more examples can be found HERE.

I just had to add an authentic “mommy teacher momment” modeling pic for your entertainment…..

  A bed-head, no make-up, 7 months pregnant in my college ministry tank top, haven’t had my coffee yet, fashion shot.

I have already used my bag as an overnight bag, a diaper bag, and a “teacher bag” and this particular day it was functioning as a combination of the three.

My family is amazing.  My siblings have been working their hearts out to take care of my dad who is in the hospital, and my mom who has Alzheimers.  My husband has taken me on a birthday (and anniversary) vacation so that with all the stress I don’t go into early labor… so I am taking it as easy as I can for a couple days!
