It’s hard to believe I have been doing the Bloggin thing for two whole years. If it were not for all you lovely ladies I have met with your encouraging words and sweet comments, family that lurks and the many blogs that I visit for nuggets of wisdom; I'm not sure that I would have kept up with my blog. Thank you all for making my blogging experience such a joy and a blessing.  

If you have never left a comment here before, now would be a great time to come out of Lurkdom, I would love to meet and get to know my “Silent Angels” too!

Now on to the Blog Party!!!

Put your hair up, put on your favorite slippers, comfy PJ’s , a warm cup of something sweet, a bonbon or two (you know the ones we sit around nibbling on all day) and sit with me for some “Girly “ fun!

Please share some of your "Tried and True" Favorite things!!!!

I’ll go first!

Here are a few of my Favorite Things…

• Raising Godly Tomatoes~ THE BOOK! I am so thrilled that Elisabeth put together this fabulous resource for us parents. It is a blessing like no other! Elisabeth is donating a book to one of my bloggy friends!!!! To enter to win the book please go to THIS post to learn more! Feel free to enter both the book drawing and Blogoversary party in the same post.
• Little Women~ I love this movie with Wynona Ryder; I also love the book! One of you blessed ladies will have this DVD too!
• Beeyoutiful Vitamins~ These are the very best Vitamins I have ever tried; they give me tons of energy!
• Cover Girl long last Lipstick~ I have worn nothing else in the last 4 years and in the same color!  This lipstick keeps my lips moist and lasts for hours without coming off on Troy or while eating, it a good thing!
• Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm~ I have suffered with dry lips for the better part of my life due to extreme Eczema and this has proven to be the best lip moisturizer I have found on the market today! One of you lovely ladies will have much softer lips within a week or so because I am giving one of these away too!
• Infusium 23 Shampoo & Conditioner~ Again I have tried a bazillion hair products and not until recently did I try this and it worked its wonders on my very curly frizzy hair!
• Wild Honey Suckle Body Lotion~ This is my favorite Bath & Body scent, it is light and soft. Perfect for my allergy prone nose! One of you lovely ladies will be blessed with your very own bottle to try!
• Abercrombie and Fitch 8 Perfume ~ My favorite perfume, the one I wear the most! It’s delicious!!!
• Lancôme Dual Finish Foundation~ It’s a bit pricey but it works like a dream! I have used this foundation for over 10 years and it always leaves my face looking smooth.
• The Power Of Motherhood~ The Best Bible study I have read so far on the topic of motherhood! I wish I could give each and every one of you a copy of this amazing book!
• Created to be his Helpmeet~ I feel just as strongly about this book as it gives clear and precise wisdom on being a Wife and Helpmeet to your other half! Its a must read!!!
• Cookie Dough Candle~ from Wally World, smells up the whole house just like fresh baked cookies. A local maker sells them!

There you have it, a few of my favorite things!

For my Blogoversary party I would like to give one of you sweet friends a “Pamper Package”! One Blessed Mama is going to leave this “Girls Only Blogoversary Party” with a gift package full of my favorite things along with a $10 Gift card for Wal-Mart to purchase some of your own!

Here is a peak at the prized gift package…

That’s it; I look forward to reading about your favorite things and maybe finding some new ones of my own.  Anything that would help us "Feel Great in 2008!  

Another Year for Thee

Another year is dawning!
Dear Master, let it be,
In working or in waiting,
Another year with Thee!

Another year of leaning
Upon Thy loving breast,
Of even deeper trusting,
Of quiet, happy rest.

Another year of mercies,
Of faithfulness and grace;
Another year of gladness,
In the shining of Thy face.

Another year of progress,
Another year of praise;
Another year of proving
Thy presence "all the days."

Another year of service,
Of witness to Thy love;
Another year of training
For holier work above.

Another year is dawning!
Dear Master, let it be,
On earth, or else in heaven,
Another year for Thee!
