Our Trip To Florida

We had a great time in Florida. We were gone for 9 days to see Joe's family, and to go to Disney. Jackson had a blast at Disney and keeps asking if we can go back "tomorrow".

Here are some of our pictures from our trip. We also celebrated Knox's 1st Birthday there. What a fun party it was! Thanks to everyone who came...it was so great to see you all!

Marvelous Monday: My Followers!

I am amazed at the blogging world.

I was once intimidated by it, but am now a part of it....and I'm loving it!

Who knew that 6 months ago when I started this blog, that I'd have 70+ followers.

When I started out, I created our blog for our family out of town to keep in touch and stay up to date on our lives and our kids. Then, the more I browsed through other blogs, I got ideas on what to write about, how often to write, how to make it cute, etc.

I am blown away by the response I've had from other mom's out there on our blog. I always love to share ideas, recipes, craft projects, and other "motherly" and "girly" things.

So, you all are "Marvelous"...

Thank you so much for your encouragement and words of wisdom :)

My Goal: To get to 100 followers by April...
