It feels like I haven’t blogged in forever! It’s nice to be back… well, honestly if you told me I could jump on a plane now, I’d grab my suit and be gone in an instant. Mexico was insanely awesome. I’m going to do a whole post on it next Monday!
The Disappearing Giveaway... If you’ve followed us since the very beginning you might remember a post about our Design Challeng{ed} contest… Or maybe you don’t remember because not one single person entered. Ha! We’d only been blogging about two months and it was a major flop! It sure makes us laugh though!
Famous Angelina… Jess wrote a cute post about Cam’s 3rd birthday party last year. It was a cute Angelina Ballerina theme. The post is fine, but nothing over the top. We didn’t have great lighting and all the pictures are so-so… however, thanks to the post’s title it was in our top 15 posts for landing pages! So many people have Googled Angelina Ballerina and found us! Ha!
So maybe we laugh a lot and blush a little over these silly posts, but it reminds us of the amazing road this blog has taken. We can’t wait to look back next year and see what 2012 had for us!
Now, get ready for some stinkin’ awesome giveaways!

Scentsy Giveaway
I must have been living under a rock for a while, because I had never tried Scentsy until Breanne joined our blog last fall. Honestly, I wake up, walk down stairs, and turn my warmer on immediately, my kids take turns picking out the scents we should use. It’s awesome! Breanne is giving away one warmer and scentsy bar of your choice!

Kotton Pickin’ Kute Hat
My poor kids were all born well before the world thought to make amazingly cute hats- boo! I honestly don’t think there’s anything cuter than a baby with a sock monkey hat! Krista hand knits all of her hats and lucky for us, she’s giving one away! Don’t have an itty bitty baby? No worries, she can make them in child and even adult sizes. I just might buy the hubs a sock monkey hat… actually, I won’t because I could possibly die of laughter.

Love the idea of My Best Friend’s Hair. I just entered the gal that cuts my unruley main or as my dad use to call it Led Zeplin hair- yeah a bit curly, thick and out of control. But my gal Kristen at Juut can work miracles and I love the cut she does!! Gotta love free hair products!!
