Edited:

Paula is hosting the loveliness of autumn. Get your posts to her by Oct 2nd. If you live in Australia then its the loveliness of spring! All back to school posts welocome also under this larger umbrella of autumn/spring.

You can use something you wrote in the past.

I believe Paula has the symbol we are using for these fairs in her sidebar.

******

Last I heard Paula did not get enough posts to create the Back to School Tradition Loveliness Fair.

I think we should still go ahead and try again for a September Blog Fair. We were all so excited and Annie made the beautiful widget and everything. . .

Perhaps the topic was too narrow. Let's try for the Loveliness of Autumn (or Spring for the Aussies).

Create a new post or link one from your past. It can be anything that deals with your kids, your cooking, your house, your routines, your thoughts, your memories, your school, your feastdays, etc. . . that pertains to this time of year.

Paula, would you like to host it? If not, I will take it and post it on Saturday, Oct. 3rd. Have all your posts in to me by that Friday Oct. 2nd.

Let's wait for Paula to let us know if she is hosting it and what date she wants it in. . .

Paula?

Then we look forward to Stef and her October blog fair!

How about a back to school OR autumn traditions? I don't really have any "back to school " traditions but we definitely have autumn traditions or early school year activities that we incorporate into our school/home each year.

Maybe it is because it seems like we have less people posting/reading the boards. I am not sure; I have just notice a lot less activity in the last few months. Maybe because of Facebook, Twitter,etc? Not sure.

Oh I missed the post that said Paula didn't have any post. I just didn't have firsst day traditions... but was waiting to read everyone else's. :)

If Paula makes it a more general school post, I'll do something.

I can still host if you want me to, otherwise I'll do a different month. The last 10 days have been...unpleasant, to say the least.

FYI, if you copy and paste the link into private messenger unless something has changed, there is a space that is added into the address, Paula. The links won't work unless you get rid of that space. I've learned that the hard way before.

So, would I just go back in and edit to add the link back to the fair?
