I'm thrilled that Gallamore West has reached
{and past} 300 "likes" on Facebook!
{Giveaway details posted at the bottom of this very long post... }
I've had this little blog here for over three years,
but I still consider myself a new-ish blogger.
Why?
Because I was never consistent about posting here. I attempted to have two separate blogs- one for sharing creative projects, and one just for my family stuff. But I had a problem... my family life and my creative loves are all tangled up into one big beautiful messy thing called Life.
I had a lightbulb moment back in March where I realized that I want to share all of who I am, not just part. I love being able to...
share some of my favorite projects with you,
share some of my favorite days with you,
share some of my favorite parties with you,
like Jake's Red Scooter Party
share how I'm not the kind of mom
I thought I'd be,
like in this post here
share how I'm not the kind of mom
I thought I'd be,
like in this post here
and even share my biggest secrets with you,
And I love blogging because I've had the opportunity to connect with some of my favorite bloggers, like...
Natalie {A Turtle's Life for Me, my sweetest bloggy friend I've never met in real life}
Jenny {Crossing the Bugger-Dixon Line, fellow Mama of boys and hostess of super creative parties}
and Ashley {Little Miss Momma... she's commented a few times and I respond, so that counts as connecting, right?! She is a doll.}
And seeing a couple of my favorite real life friends start their own adorable blogs too, like Jen {Twiddler House} and Reannah {Shaped by Grace}.
What I love most about blogging is being able to connect with YOU. I appreciate each of you who read and follow along in my little corner of the world here. And to thank you for that, I have an adorable giveaway opportunity to share with you!
Giveaways on my blog are rare {after all, I prefer blogs with real content and real people, not one that just wants to attract anyone to follow} so when I host a giveaway, it will always only be something that I LOVE.
And this is something that I absolutely love!
Our family theme song is You are my Sunshine,
so I'm thrilled to be able to give away

I love the grey background with the yellow writing, which is the opposite of the one you have posted. It totally matches my decorating. I wouldn't have to change a thing and it'd add soo much.
