Magnificent Fall Monday!

Hi Everyone!

It is Fall Break around here and I LOVE IT!!! I love going to the pumpkin patch, decorating for fall, and all the apple and pumpkin flavored everything there is!

Anyone else love Fall?

My daughter told me her favorite part of Halloween is going to see Ally and getting an apple with chocolate and caramel and mini m&m’s. Did you know that Ally makes the BEST candied apples for Halloween?!?!

I hope you all have a wonderful week!

xoxo,

Shellie

URGENT for Ally Ambassadors

Hey team,

Ally here, owning up to the fact that I made a boo-boo.

Hopefully a lot of you received the newsletter last week. Well, in it I said that last year’s Ally Ambassadors didn’t need to sign up to be in the program again. I WAS WRONG.

You see, the program is now being hosted/managed on a new site, which means we WILL need you to sign up again. I am so sorry!

The signup is quick and painless, I promise.

Just go right HERE and sign up.

THANK YOU!

Ally

Magnificent Monday

Hi Everyone!

In case you missed it, Ally blogged on Friday so go check it out here!

She talked about signing up for the newsletter if you haven’t already. I know some people where confused because the link sends you to her bio page but if you look at the side bar on that page there is a place to sign up!

With all the talk about See How They Run book 2 of the Embassy Row Series coming out on December 22 I have been thinking about the different Embassies around the world!

What embassy would yo...

Newsletter!

Hey, everyone!

Ally here. First, I’m sorry I haven’t been blogging as much as we would all like. As you’ve probably heard, the pub date of SEE HOW THEY RUN has been moved up a whole month! Whoo hoo! But this means all the stuff we have to do gets moved up as well. Thank you for your patience.

Now, if you’re reading this you are probably a pretty frequent allycarter.com visitor (and I THANK YOU for that!)

But I know in this crazy, busy, social-media-overloaded era that we live in, it is super...

What’s New Tuesday?

Hey Everyone!

Well I am a day late in posting! Story of my life lately!

So this post I wanted to ask what is something that your friends are all saying or doing that not everyone may know about? For example, I asked this question about a year ago and we all found out about turtling (jumping on each other’s backswhile wearing a backpack). Another example, the other day I heard someone say “bless up” meaning hello!

Just curious to see what’s hip and happening where you are!

Also, If you tried...

Magnificent Monday

Hi Everyone!

I thought a littlecryptogram would be fun today! You all really seemed to like the one I posted a while back so here is another one.

For those of you who have never solved a cryptogram puzzle before, the rules are simple… It is basically a secret code where different numbers, symbols, or in this case, letters, represent a different letter.

I will hold all comments with answers for 24hrs...

Magnificent Tuesday!

Hi Everyone!

Well I am a day late on my Magnificent Monday post and if you noticed last Monday’s post I had my dates all wrong!!!

This start of the school year has my whole family out of whack! Anyone else having a hard time getting back into the groove of things?

On the upside, there are so many fun things coming up this fall and winter! What are you looking forward to?

I will have a fun puzzle next week, I promise!

Hope everyone is having a better start to their week than I am!
