Hi everyone! I am so excited to say that I am now co-hosting the Family Fun Friday Link Party! Please read on to learn a bit more about my Monica over at Happy and Blessed Home! I will be writing a bit about myself and what I plan on doing on my blog at next week’s Link Party. I can’t wait to get to know you and see all of your wonderful posts! So…now, it is time to link up!
If you’re a mom keep reading because we have some wonderful fun ideas to inspire you with your little ones and family. My blogging friends are linking up craft ideas, fun in the kitchen, preschool & homeschool ideas, and ways to spend time as a family.
My blog is growing but I need your help, please like my facebook page and help spread the word about HappyandBlessedHome.com. Thanks so much!
If you’d like to “bookmark” these ideas for later on PINTEREST here’s a handy button to help you keep track of this list of ideas. To PIN a specific blogger’s post please click through and PIN their post directly from their site. Thanks!
On Mondays I’ve been posting encouraging words for MOMs. If you’d like some encouragement I recommend reading some of my recent posts: “Beauty“, “Audience“, or “Zeal“.
On Wednesdays I post on the preschool alphabet games we’re doing. We’re on the letter “A” and every week I post free printables. This week you can download your free printables for the letter “A” here: Letter “A”. Plus I’m working on a new FREE Zoo Animals Bundle – coming soon!
If you’d like to join our family in our Preschool alphabet study, you can download my FREE Preschool Planner and see my Free Printables. Sign up via e-mail to receive all my printables. Subscribe to Happy and Blessed Home by Email.
On Fridays I host Family Fun Friday so you can meet all my blogging friends and get great ideas.
AND, introducing my new co-Host Robin from MyLifeAsRobin’s Wife. Diane is awesome and we’ll be working together to help promote this link party! Please make sure to stop by Diane’s Facebook page and give her a “Like” when you have a moment.
Thanks to all my blogging friends for linking up last week at Family Fun Friday. So many great ideas, crafts and things to do! If you link up, you permit me to use your pictures/ideas as part of future posts and/or social media. The party has grown so much that I’ve decided to increase the number of participants to 200 and then I will select a winner of some FREE jewelry. This will likely mean I’ll award a prize every other week. We had over 100 bloggers link up last week. You all are amazing – you bless my socks off with your awesome posts!
Our latest winner is Christine over at I Dig Pinterest for her Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake! Congratulations Christine – please contact me with your desired selection. All winners need to let me know within three days to claim their prize. 🙂
Some examples of the jewelry I am giving away. Your link-up and/or comment is your entry to WIN. BTW, I can make wedding party custom jewelry – contact me if you’re interested. 🙂
