Happy Blogiversary to US!

That's right!  You read it correctly!  More than Mommies is celebrating a year of blogging.

Last year, on Saturday, February 11th, I wrote our very first blog post about the Perfect Morning!  If you haven't tried the recipe in that post I HIGHLY recommend it!

Anyway . . . since then WE have written 263 posts and made a lot of friends along the way!

Our two most popular posts are still:

(by Christine)

and


It's no surprise to me that we each wrote one of the top two posts because we have been a TEAM from the beginning of this venture.  Outsiders who listen to our "blog meetings" (which usually take place while our daughters are dancing their little hearts out on Monday nights at the dance studio) probably wonder how two amazingly agreeable, total push overs ever make any kind of decision.  We do, though, because we both recognize a good idea when we hear it and we don't really care who comes up with it!  Christine has really been amazing these last few months while I was living with my parents and moving and just not able to give as much as I wanted to when it came to our blog.  Watch out, though!  I'm settled and we are raring to go!!!  We have SO many exciting things coming up on the horizon!


Let's start this new year of blogging off right . . . with a contest!

We will make it nice and simple - follow the Rafflecopter prompts for entries.  

You can tweet an entry every day - so come back and tweet again tomorrow!

Prizes?  You wanna know the prizes?  How about a $50 Amazon gift card AND a $25 Shutterfly gift card?  Christine and I LOVE Amazon (you can tell by the several Kindle Fires we have between us . . . I seriously think that between our 2 families we have 8 or 9).  We LOVE Amazon Prime for free shipping and for content on our Kindles (we also use it on our XBox to watch movies and TV shows just like you would with Netflix)!

Oh . . . and Shutterfly!  We both use Shutterfly to create our Project Life projects and LOVE the amazing product they produced for us!  Shutterfly is AWESOME!

There you have it!  Enter to win . . . spread the word . . . and make sure to leave us a "Happy Blogiversary" comment!  We love comments!!!
