Just 2 years ago…

I became a blogger!  Go here to see my first post. 

And can I just say…”Dang!”  I was skinny then!  Well, actually, I was getting pretty plump by the time I started blogging.  I was about 2 months pregnant then.  But the picture in my first post was from about 4 months before…back in the “skinny days”.  Wish I’d realized that at the time!

Anyway, here’s the BIG news I mentioned yesterday…

happy blogiversary_edited-3

In honor of the McFamily’s 2nd blogiversary, I am hosting a giveaway!

I am offering a blog facelift, courtesy of Jen Gets Fancy, to brighten up your blog for the new year!  The facelift includes a basic custom facelift, plus the cost of one design kit…an approximately $45 value!

Here’s what you must do to participate:

  • Go over and take a look at all the design kits available at Jen Gets Fancy, then come back here to leave me a comment about which one is your favorite.
  • If you aren’t already, please become a follower!  I’d love to be able to follow you back! :)
  • Add the Jen Gets Fancy button to your blog, and please make a quick mention of and link back here to the giveaway!

Please make sure your email address is attached to your blog somehow.  I’ll need a way to notify the WINNER!

I will choose a winner next Monday!!

  17. Although I have never won a giveaway...I still love them!!!

    I have been blogging for about 2 years as well. I started my blog so that my husband, who was in Game Warden Academy, could follow our daily lives while he was away.
    I would love (and need) a facelift!!!!

    My favorite is "Rag Tag Cowboy" by Dani Mogstad. My blog is called "The Lone Waggoner," so that would be so fitting!!!

    Thanks for this amazing opportunity!

  30. Well I'm so glad I found your blog. I officially started blogging today. I wanted to sooner but I just had a baby in October and moved into a new house in September. My blog is going to be about fixing up and decorating the new house hence my blog name, the Modern Farmhouse. I have no idea what I am doing in the blog world as far as adding things, making it look pretty, or even if the reader can see anything. So, I would love to win the makeover. I became a follower, I'm not really sure how to add your button (I'm really new at this) but I'll keep on trying to figure it out. Oh yeah, I think my favorite one would have to be....Corina Nielson and her Sweet September collection.
