Ok, you all got to me......so Here's a hint

Well, maybe not a hint really, but I can definitely guarantee you that I am NOT pregnant. With a six and eleven year old the last thing I need is a baby :) And, no, I won't be moving back to the states, I'm in Germany for at least a couple more years. Sorry Marisol, as exciting as being your neighbor in New Jersey sounds, it just isn't going to happen :)You are right though, it is extremely exciting!!! It is definitely good news. I'll tell you what, tomorrow (Thursday) I will give you a true hint. Keep guessing though, if someone gets it right I'll let you know! Oh, and since everyone seems as excited about it as I am, instead of giving away blog candy to one prize winner, I'm going to give blog candy to TWO lucky winners. Just leave me a comment for your chance to win!

    OH...a design team (as TimberYW suggested) would be SO cool! Is that it Kelly!? TWO more days before you tell all and ONE more day before you give another "real" hint? If I tell you that I'm going to have some sort of anxiety attack will you tell me? I PROMISE I won't tell anyone!!!! (grin)

    Hmmm...after your excellent coverage of the European SU convention maybe a job with SU Europe division....a design team of some sort that fits with the IDA?...Secret State Department head of stamping division reporting directly to Hilary and to Shelli?? Oh man now I'm going to have to turn on my computer Friday...uh is that Friday German time or USA time? Can't be Artisan Awards yet....hmm...I'll have to keep guessing until then. And now you have me wondering what the awesome candy could be...time to count sheep or I'll never get to sleep now...

    Take care Kelly and thanks for all you are doing on LNS to keep things lively and interesting. Oh the suspense wondering who's going to turn up on your blog post lists next...

    Hugs - Jean

    This is so fun, trying to guess what your secret is, but it's also driving us crazy, too! How about this one... Since you are a military wife and a full-time government contractor, spending time overseas, are you going to be the new position (with Stampin' Up) as a "Military" Supervisor/Manager/Representative of some sort?
    I enjoy your blog and especially loved seeing all your photos and descriptions of the first European convention!
    Thanks for keeping us hanging...

    Having not read any of the other comments I'm not sure if my guess has already been guessed or not -
    but I think either
    1) Something for SU - design team or one of their other programs like Founders Circle type thing
    or
    2) A design team of some sort not directly for SU as the company but involving SU

I hope your event went will with the thank you ideas! I'll be back on Friday to check. BTW my parents are from Germany - they were just there for a month a got home this past week. I was born in the US though a few years after they immigrated here.
