Anniversary Weekend!!!!

Well this Saturday is our wedding anniversay! 5 wonderful years of non stop happiness!!!! Yeah, right, who am I kidding. We have had more troubles then most (the loss of a child, his "friend" embezzeled all the money from his company and left us holding the IRS issues, the ups and downs of raising his, mine and ours, then his leaving and not speaking to him, child support, loss of our log cabin on 10 acres and our vehicles etc..but we remain strong through it all.. He is my best friend! We will probably just stay at home like we always do and celebrate with a glass of wine and a big fat kiss!LOL


I decided on the Heart Bowl Fillers for the February Giveaway!


I will post the rules for the contest in my next post! I will run the contest the first week of February. These bowl fillers are handmade by me. The actual bowl fillers that you receive may differ from those pictured here. They may differ in sayings and colors.
I wanted to take a moment and tell you about a product I received in my Out of the Box Sampler. It was from a Company called Twist of Taste. She also has a Etsy Shop. Her Chocolate breakaways and Covered Pretzels are to die for. I emailed her to let her know that we loved it and will be back for more. Turns out she lives right near me too. Check out her products it is worth the look www.twistoftaste.etsy.com and also go to www.outoftheboxsampler.com to see what Michelle has in store for Februarys box.
I also have a few other things that I have purchased from Etsy sellers that I would like to tell you about: I got the most adorable necklases (one for me and one for Ava) from Reillybelle shop. Here is the link to the necklace http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=15715107.
The other was an adorable Diaper Bag from Cutestitch's Etsy shop. Here is link to the bag I got http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20039035 her prices are great and I love the personalization of name, hair color etc...
Until next time enjoy your weekend everyone;)

Wild Weekend!!!!

Wahooo! I finally got out with an old girlfriend for the first time in about 3 years. We had such a great time catching up at a TGI Fridays. We laughed our heads off over salad and wine... Then I ran to the store for 2 more bottles of wine for me and Daddy! Our Anniversary is January 31st. Of course, I had to open 1 bottle and have another glass or two with him.


I was trying desperately to get on the computer today to post but Ava just runs right over and starts crying for me to pick her up then the fun begins...she starts grabbing everything on my desk and pressing all of the keys on the keyboard! Here is a pic of that:


I was not the only one catching up with some old friends...My oldest son Sean looked up an old friend (Krista) and she stopped over to hang out with us. We haven't seen her in about 8 years. It really makes me feel old! Here they are all grown up: I also want you guys to check out the April Showers Blog for her giveaway it looks some good stuff. I entered and you may want to too. Look to the right for her button.

So I am trying to decide what my giveaway should be for February??? Should I giveaway a necklace or heart bowl fillers? Show me some bloggie love and let me know what you would like.
