Party, Party, Par-tay!

Congrats to Lisa from The Cozy Nook - my See's Candy truffles winner!!

It's definitely time to celebrate! Monday was my 4-year Blogaversary {4 years - amazing!} and Friday is my birthday - woo hoo!! That means we need to party it up! Go ahead - have some cake! :)


It's hard to believe that it's been 4 years since I started blogging. Now that doesn't mean I've blogged the entire 4 years - I took a few breaks along the way and even "quit" for 4 months last year. But I've been back to it for a solid year and feel like I'm just now really getting back into the groove. I've also been a Contributor at Pennies & Blessings for a year now which has helped me stretch myself a bit {I just shared Chicken Enchilada Casserole over there}.

The Blogosphere has changed a lot in that time and it gets harder all the time to figure out my place in this online world. It's definitely a journey and I'm so glad you've been along for the ride! I do appreciate all of you sweet readers - thank you for being here with me. I hope to do a better job connecting with all of you in the near future.

**Giveaway Closed** In celebration of you lovelies - I have a special giveaway for you! And yes, it's chocolate - so one of you can literally stop and smell the chocolates! :) For those few of you who can't have chocolate, I can almost guarantee that you have family members or friends who would love you forever if you handed them this box of chocolates - so be sure to enter! :)


That my friends, is a 1 pound box of See's Candy Truffles. Oh yesssss. I will be happy to ship it off to one of you after I manage to pry my fingers off the box - LOL!

Thank you again friends for sticking with me and blessing me with your friendship!

I'll continue the partying later this week by joining up with the Ultimate Blog Party hosted by 5 Minutes For Mom {and there'll be another giveaway - woo hoo!} - see you there!

In the meantime, don't forget - my sweet sponsors not only have great prices, but some special discounts for my readers!

Have a fabulous and blessed day friends!!
