Join my Party

Welcome to my Christmas Shin-Dig!
I've never thrown a blog party before so I'm kind of nervous, but that can just be our little secret. I have lots of things I want to include in my party, so I've decided the best way to tackle this is to do several posts, so keep scrolling down so that you don't miss a single thing that goes on at this party!
I always try to have party favors when I throw a party, and this one shouldn't be an exception, so I am giving away a prize.
Here are some photos of the prize



All you have to do to enter is comment on one of my Christmas Party Blog entries. I will put all the names in a hat and draw a winner. I will post the winner's name on my blog on Sunday, so check back to see if this cute little Santa bubble light is coming to your house! All entry comments must be posted by 11:59 p.m. Pacific time.
If this is your first trip to my blog, Welcome! Please come back and see me again!

You are really CRACKING me up. If I didn't really know you I would think you had gone a little crazy! I love the Christmas in July Party. I also have loved reading all your post. Little E was a little unsure of why you were already talking about Santa...after all its not her birthday yet! 5 year olds are great aren't they!

Well, for your first Christmas in July party, I have to say, you are a WONDERFUL hostess!! :> I had the delight of discovering Maggi's blog late last night (like twenty minutes before the party was to begin!), so I am not blogging along, but I am so delighted visiting all of you who are blogging the party. You are rockin' Christmas in July...hope it is Merry! :>

What a great Christmas part you put on! Merry Christmas in July! I envy that you got to go to New York, heck even traveled on Christmas. I'm so used to staying home but what a great tradition.

Hope you had as much fun as I did blog hopping! I'm still hopping. Lol!

Here's what I do (note, this recipe is really just pictures, because I don't really have measurements for these things.  The photos aren't great, but it's easier if I show you what I do)... Here's the Phase 1 ingredients...   Milk Honey Yogurt (I use a vanilla greek yogurt) Oats (old fashioned, not quick...you probably could do steel cut too)    I've simplified this to where you only need a bowl and a spoon for Phase 1 becau

One week from today will mark 2 years since I started this whole blogging thing.  I'm very excited about this blogiverary because an opportunity has come up for me to do a giveaway for you guys!  My sponsor has many websites that sell just about everything... lately I've been looking at the site for luggage  because I'm feeling the need for a new carry on bag for my upcoming trip to NOLA.  But more about the giveaway!  Here's a picture of a couple of samples...
