Today is THE DAY!

MODKID Boutique's One Year Anniversary! WOOHOO! Thank you so much for all the wonderful email wishes... you are all so sweet and I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such a wonderful group of women.

Part of me can't believe it's been a year already (seems like just yesterday I listed my first boutique set on eBay!), but part of me feels like we've been at this forever. Maybe it's because this "business" was really a long time in the making. My mom & I had been designing & making clothes for my girls for quite a while and had even made some for other people and we talked for a while about doing this "professionally" but it wasn't until last year around this time that we decided to "take the plunge." I came up with the name, the logo and a shell of a website before we even had any work to show. I sketched out a few prototype designs and flew to FL in early May to discuss them with my mom. And 3 weeks later, we had 4 custom auctions up on eBay. 3 of them sold, so we were pretty proud of ourselves. And here we are now...

As I announced before, the contest is TODAY! You can enter until 12 noon eBay time (so in about 2 hrs.) and then we will tally the entries! You can enter by either signing up for my mailing list or placing a bid on my auction.

This event will involve my whole family: I am putting Jon in charge of database because he is the nerdy, er, tech-savvy, one and Sophie & Sydney will draw names this afternoon. I will blog the whole thing tonight. Each winner will be announced on a separate blog entry (yes, I'm probably over-complicating the whole thing, but that's ME!) LOL!

So, I'll see you all tonight! GOOD LUCK! :)
