Today marks two years that I have been sharing my My very first entry, two years ago, revolved around the purchase of our house. I wrote about needing a new front door and garage door. That hasn't changed in two years. We still want to replace them.
I wrote about how proud I was of my then 14 month-old daughter was speaking six words and signing 10 words. That has changed, and some days I wish she was back at that stage where she minded me, and didn't talk back so much.
I wrote about our cat. He's gone now. He just up and disappeared in the middle of March and we haven't seen him since. I like to think another family adopted him, but the percentage is higher that he was either run over, or shot, or found a field and died somewhere. Who knows, but we miss our Sammy.
I wrote about decorating and painting the house and working on other projects. That is a never ending, and ever changing process, and to this day, I don't feel like my home is complete and put together the way I would like it to be.
I have posted about some of my interests and hobbies over the last two years. Including (but not limited to): digital scrapbooking, card making, sewing, and cooking.
I decided I would be so bold and assume that one of my readers would like to receive something that I made by hand. So, if you love receiving handmade goodies as much I do, then leave me a comment and you might be the lucky winner.
If you post about my giveaway on your blog and leave another comment with the link, I will give you another entry. I'll use a random number generator to pick the winner, and will close the giveaway Monday, July 20.
What you win depends on what you (the winner) choose.
I'll sew you a bag, or a nursing cover, or a crayon cozy, or a headband, or a camera strap, or an apron.
I'll make you some handmade cards, or a blog header, or a digital scrapbook layout.
I will share one of my interests with you.
Thanks for letting me share my life with you. It's been a fun journey, and I look forward to many more years to come. Thanks for reading and encouraging me when I'm down, offering sage advice and wisdom, laughing with me, crying with me, and celebrating with me.
Not too shabby:
2 years of blogging, 300 posts written, 1 new house purchased, 1 new baby added to family, countless amazing friends made --Priceless!
ETA: Congratulations, Shannon, you are the winner of my giveaway! I'll email you to find out what you'd like me to make.
