Buttons and such....

I did it!!!! I FINISHED the crochet project that I've been working on! It took me 5 days! This is something that I would have normally worked on over the course of a month. But I FINISHED it!!! Yay!
Pictures and details to come... probably next week!


Next order of business... Don't forget about my next Blog Party, Pinterest Style! It's coming up next week. It technically starts Monday.. I MIGHT open it tomorrow, since I will be busy Sunday and into Monday... If not, I will open it Monday afternoon/evening (depending on your time zone, and how much "spring forward" knocks me outta whack).

Finally, check out my new buttons! My 12 year old son made them for me! :-)

Facebook, Twitter, & Pinterest.

Have a great weekend!

A Bunch Of Thanks! Next Party Theme! & Award!

   Hi! First off, I would like to thank everyone for coming to my Blog Party- Pinterest Style!
I think it was a great success for my first party! I hope you all had as much fun as I did!

   I am already planning for my next party. I kind of just came up with the idea for the first one, and jumped in both feet first, so this time, I will do a little more planning.
I was thinking of a themed party! I was also thinking that I will run it for an entire week, since some people are online more during the week, while others are online more during the weekends.

   As for the next theme... in honor of St. Patrick's day, we will be celebrating: GREEN!

Search your site for green and pin it between March 12-19, 2012. Be creative and join in the fun! I look forward to seeing you all there!

   Thank you so much, Sarah! For those of you who have never visited Sarah's Blog, I encourage you to do so! She has a ton of yummy recipes and beautiful pictures to match. I can seriously spend hours there just looking at everything and deciding what I want to make first! Just take a peek at these Chunky Pecan Pie Bars and these Chinese Pot Stickers/Dumplings, and you will see what I mean!

   Now it's my turn to "pay it forward".

4. Little Becky Homecky
5. Random Tips On Healthy Eating

You are Invited to My Blog Party- Pinterest Style!

My name is Susie, and I am a Pinterest addict.
Instead of trying to fix it, I decided to embrace it.
How better to embrace something, than to have a party? Am I right?

Here's how it works:

1. Make sure you are following me on Pinterest, so I can add you to the board. (Leave a link to your pinterest profile in comments when you follow, so that I can follow you and  add you. I will add you as soon as I can! Once you are added, you are automatically added for participation in future parties... this means, it will get easier for all of us! lol)
2. Choose up to five "pinworthy" projects, recipes, ideas... you get the picture... from your own blog or website.
3. Pin them on my Blog Party board.
4. Check out the other awesome pins there. Repin pins you like (to your own boards), follow blogs that interest you, and have fun!

Easy right? Just click the link to get to my party board!

Since this is my first "party", and not many people are signed up yet, I may extend it past the 26th. (I'm still working the bugs out). (And hoping it works! lol)
