Ultimate Blog Party 2011 – Welcome!

Ultimate Blog Party 2011

Can I just say that I’m super-excited for this party?!? I had soooo much fun last year, and I even won a few prizes! I’m thrilled that I’m still blogging away a year later and get to be a part of this awesome party again.

If you’re stopping by from the party, hi! Take a poke around if you want. You’ll find lots of pictures, mostly of my kids. I’m not a pro or anything, but I do like to take pictures! You’ll even find a few of me (not the greatest, but hey, it’s fun to embrace the camera!)

I also try to post preschool and tot school ideas and activities whenever I get the chance, although soon enough we’ll be moving on to kindergarten posts (wait, kindergarten?!? I don’t know if I’m ready for that…).

I love to cook, so there’s a new recipe (almost) every week and you can find my menu plan here too.

If you’re really lucky, you might find a crafty idea or two. Not that I have time for much of that, but I do enjoy it so.

To see more about me, you can go here for the long and short of it or here for last year’s party post.

Also, make sure you stop by again on Sunday (or maybe late Saturday) because I’ll be putting up a giveaway when I get back from the Women’s Retreat I’m going on this weekend :)

Update: The giveaway is now up :) Go here to enter!

Leave me a comment with your blog address so I can come join YOU for the party!

Now to do preschool or blog hop, hmm…

Hey, there! I am stopping by from the UBP11! I love the picture with of you and your hubby with the caption "My beloved is mine and I am his." SO sweet! Glad to stop by and I look forward to poking around some more!

Hi! Thanks for stopping by my party. It's my first year and I'm having a blast. :-D

I love the photo and caption with you and your husband too. I've been married 21 years and still feel that way. In fact, my husband wears a ring he bought in Israel with those words in Hebrew. He bought me one too but I lost it. He loves me anyway. ;-)

Hope to "see" you again!
