There's an ULTIMATE Blog Party going on over at 5 Minutes for Mom and I am continuing the fun over here! You can too!! This is my first time joining in on a Blog Hop party of this size and I am excited to meet lots of new people. I hope I will have the time to keep up.
This is also the first time I will be holding a GIVEAWAY on my blog!!!
Read more on that in a bit...
Before I get all distracted (yes, that happens a lot) how about a little about this blog. Of course, I have a lovely About Page to check out but it is in need of updating.
- I am a stay-at-home mom trying to hang on to my sanity.
- Our kiddos are in school, at home.
- Gardening is a passion, but I can get neglectful of it around harvest time.
- I'm an aspiring photographer who needs a lot more time to practice.
- Coupons are a TON of fun to me and I teach coupon classes.
- I find my kids hysterically funny. :)
- I have always loved computers and techie things.
- Coding on a blog is fun to me!
- I LOVE to read and research things like crazy.
- Sometimes I stay up too late but I don't like coffee. Hehe...
Reasons to revisit next week:
Besides the Give Away? Sure! There's more!
Besides the Give Away? Sure! There's more!
- Update to my Online Coupon Class
- Walk through recipe post... Yummmm!
- Funny kid story from my crazy kiddos
- And MORE
Now about that mentioned Give Away:
I know Mother's Day is coming up and it's always fun to get lovely, little trinkets to give to mom... or keep for yourself? Well, I made a pretty, pink bracelet to Give Away for you to give away! (Or keep! Hehe... I won't tell, if you won't.) This bracelet is made from glass beads and has a threaded heart clasp. I used steel wire to make this to keep it strong, yet flexible.
This Give Away is OVER:
You can see who won in the last comment of this post.
