Blog-iversary......giveaway


This evening as I was getting ready for bed (and had every intention of ignoring my poor blog) I realized that I started this blog one year ago today.


Although it is still in its infancy (I don't think I can hardly consider 88 posts much more than a newborn), it is one calendar year old. Which is probably more like 7 in blog years.


Since I have been such a bad blog mommy,.......silly me,.......I have been chasing around 4 human children and sometimes it seems that there aren't enough hours in a day for that let alone tending to my blog baby,............I decided that I had better commemorate my blogs one year mark. ( How is that for a run on sentence with endless grammatical and punctuation errors?)





To my blog on your birthday............I Vow To (try to)............


-neglect you less


-post on you more


-change up your look once in a blue moon


-be more grateful that I can vent my creative rantings on you


-and host a giveaway in your honor





You all know the drill. To enter the giveaway you need only leave a comment. My followers can enter twice, and if you blog about the giveaway I will enter you three times. Please leave a separate comment for each time that you qualify for entry. (This will be greatly appreciated by my very lazy alter ego.:))


Two winners will be sent a set of three of my embroidered posy pins along with a set of my felt barrettes. (Terribly sorry about the pictures. There is no natural light in my house at nearly midnight.......go figure.........thus...............bad photos.)








I will take comments until midnight on Friday the 9th.




Thank You to all Bloggy Friends that participate!!!!!




Love, -Holls

Ah Holly, congratulations! I recall when I stumbled upon your completely new blog. I was a novice myself at that time and I knew how nice it was to have strangers stopping by leaving a few kind words.;)
I have so enjoyed getting to know you dear friend and I love all the comments you leave at my place, they warm my heart.;)
As for blog neglect, if it is any consolation, I am in constant awe of you; having 4 kids and a blog and have enough time for both is an achievement deserving a medal.;)
Happy 1 year Holls!;)
xoxo

Hi Holly, I am over from your sister's blog, too. Congrats on one year. With four kids to tend to I don't know how you do it! Good thing there was no such thing thirty years ago, cuz I know I would have been doing way too much of this. Or maybe not. I would love to win, so enter me! Hugs, cindy S.
