Bye Bye Baby Sis

The long summer has come to an end, and Miss Emily has gone to a college far, far away.  I've been working on her going-away gifts for the last two months (the real reason I haven't posted in a very long time!). 

Miss Em is going to a purple and gold school (not LSU, thank goodness...don't think we could handle that).  I'm soooo excited that she's going to a purple school, which means it now has to become her favorite color.  I made sure she had plenty of purple to start off her school year! 

First up:  a Vera Bradley ID holder

Next up:  a little bit of art

After a couple of other items, here's the big one:

No, it's not Ann Taylor...

She'll stay warm AND have school spirit.  Here are some close-ups:

Good luck, Emaloo!  I'll miss you!
