Ultimate Blog Party 2009

From today until March 27, "5 Minutes for Mom" is hosting the Ultimate Blog Party.  It's a great way to find other blogs, and there are prizes, too!  Definitely check it out!

For those of you who found your way over from the party's main site, welcome!

"The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down."  Which Proverbs 14:1 Woman is about building up our homes, one brick at a time.  Below are links to some of my previous posts.  I hope you'll check them out, leave comments, and subscribe!  (The subscription link is in the sidebar.)  You can also follow me on Twitter.

I hope you have fun looking around the site, and have fun at the party!  =D

Oh, and did I mention there are prizes?!  Here are my favorites:
  • Gift certificates to Amazon, Office Max, Target, Christian Book Distributors, Kohl's, Wendy's, or Old Navy
  • Monkey's Momma Surprise Box
  • Afternoon Tea in a Box
  • Yankee Candle Jar
  • Set of "Mommy Cards"

    Oh, neat! I loooove office supplies! I think I may have mentioned in one of my posts that one of our Sunday traditions is wandering around Staples. Yes, we have issues, but it's nothing that can't be fixed with lots of Post-It notes!! =)

    Thanks so much for visiting!

  34. Anonymous Says:

    I also think your blog is attractive. You have inspired me to work on mine better. I just blogged about my goals for the week. Good luck with your kitchen.
    I have followed flylady for a year now, and her first advice is a shiny sink before bed, and how it can transform your house. I for one have found it to be quite true.



  35. Ruby Says:

    Loving your blog - I'm here for the party!
    Hope to get back and read lots at a later stage.

  45. Love your blog. Very eye catching. I will be back soon to spend longer.

    Be sure and stop by my blog for a visit. Though I am relativity new to blogging, I am loving all my new friends.
    I am giving away my first EVER BLOG PRIZE.
    I own a gift basket business and it is the most requested gift over the last 15 years.
    From the comments I have already received, appears to be something a little different and something anyone could use.
    I have been so touched by the comments that I have decided to give 2 boxes . They will be the $100 deluxe size.

    I really do want to bless people!!! I want my blog to encourage others. I have decided that giving is life at its BEST. The drawing will be Saturday!
