Happy 1st Blogiversary and a Giveaway!!!

HAPPY 1ST BLOGIVERSARY TO ME!!!

I can't believe it's been one year since I started this blog. It's been an incredible year and so much has happened. I've gotten to know incredible bloggers, found and tried the most delicious recipes, started my own linky party, and even got to hone my photography skills. It's truly been a joy to blog.

I can't say thank you enough to all my readers. Thank you for all your sweet comments, for your support in my linky party, and for making me smile every time I log on. You are all truly the best.

As a way to celebrate and say thank you, I'm having a giveaway! My friend, Alexis, is a truly talented young lady who makes the loveliest headbands you have ever seen.

(The Bethany - one of my personal favorites)


(bb - this one is very chic)

Each design is original and fresh. She says that she loves to experiment and create new things and that the most gratifying thing of all is when someone enjoys something she has made.

(The Libby Headband)

Buy It: All headbands can be found on Alexis' blog, "Beautiful Bands." To purchase a beautiful band, you can contact Alexis at dancewithalexis@aol.com.
