New Look, Linky Party & a Give-a-Way

We will continue with our Social Media Monday series tomorrow, Tuesday (my son would call me a rebel, smiles).  Please come back as we discuss how social media can affect our homemaking.

I am posting a Marriage Monday over at Woman to Woman Ministries so be sure to pop over!

Today marks the one year anniversary of the Sweet Blessings ministry.  I am so excited and so thankful for what God has done with this ministry.  (To read how Sweet Blessings started go here.)  I never imagined that it would last a month let alone a year.  And what a blessing it has been to meet new people from all over the world and make some really good friends.  You are all so very dear to me.

So in honor of our one year, we have a new look!  Special thanks to Traci at Ordinary Inspirations for the incredible new design!  Traci is wonderful to work with, creative and has a great blog.  Check her out!

Also in honor of our one year, we are doing our very first giveaway.  The contest will run all this week and I will announce the winner on Friday, August 5th.  For every comment you post this week, your name will be entered into the drawing.  If you tweet about the give-a-way, come back and leave a seperate comment.  If you facebook about the give-a-way, come back and leave another seperate comment.  That's three chances each day!  Plus, be sure to join Sweet Blessings through the Google Friend Connect, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter for three extra entries!  The winner will be announced on Friday and receive a $30 Gift Certiciate to Not Of This World where you can get Christian apparel and jewelry like this:


As I mentioned before, I have meet some wonderful people in the bloggy world.  They encourage me, inspire me and lift me up.  I want to give you the chance to be encouraged as well.  So if you have a blog, please join our linky party!  Please check out as many of the blogs as you can.  You can add my button to your blog, but it is not required to link up.  

Happy One Year friends!

Sweet Blessings~

    I just had to come back to tell you Jenifer, from the first time I saw the two chairs setting on the porch picture I loved it. It still reminds me of someone waiting for the Lord to set and join them in a visit. Thanks for not caring that I use that picture on my blog. I feel like I am inviting the Lord to come set and visit with me.

    Blessings to you.
