when i got airbrushed like a super model

A really, really exciting opportunity has arisen that I will be kicking off on Tuesday with a BIG GIVEAWAY, but secrets aren’t really my specialty. A couple weeks ago I met Courtney Robbins who started a clothing company, Gypsy & Co.   Gypsy is sold via home parties like you would go to for Pampered Chef, Scentsy or one of my favorites, CAbi.   She has created an e-stylist position where you can open a Gypsy store front on the internet…I happen to be on the internet pretty frequently so I signed up.   Courtney was super sweet and agreed to do a HUGE giveaway Tuesday on June Cleaver Nirvana…shhhh, it is a big secret…as part of the announcement…shhhh, it is a big secret.   We decided it would be fun for me to come over to her studio in Fort Worth and get a few pictures in the clothes to post with the giveaway (Tuesday – did I mention that?). What fun! I went down there expecting her to take a few snap shots with my camera, but instead I was treated like a super model. Literally, like a super model.   Courtney had Kandice Hemenway from Click Click Bang! Photography take the pictures. A few weeks ago Kandice took pictures of Whitney Thompson (winner of the 10th season of America’s Next Top Model) in the very same clothes. I totally wore those boots. It was the most surreal afternoon.   I walked around Fort Worth in fancy cowboy boots and fabulous clothes.   Every once in awhile I would stop to pose. The one thing that might have been a little different for Kandice when working with me, a mom blogger vs. Whitney, a world famous super model (other than the extensive post-production touch ups needed) was I came to the photo shoot with help… …Rhett. He goes everywhere with me and is a really good sport.   I love his sense of adventure and eagerness to participate. As the shoot continued, Rhett ended up in more and more pictures. I think it comes down to this…Pictures just turn out better with my kid. Stop by Tuesday for a giveaway that you WILL NOT WANT TO MISS.
