Spirited Sons

Welcome to My Blog!

Schooling two active boys has never been more... interesting. That's the word I'm looking for! I love my boys! God has given them the blessing of strong, active bodies and minds. We continually pray the first will remain intact, and the second will remain engaged with Him first, and then the school work. You'll meet my sweet sons, both entirely different, but both loving God to the best of their ability in the way He made them. I lovingly refer to them as my Bell Pepper Boy and my Habanero or Hambone. That should say it all! This blog is an eclectic mix. The events, conversations, and the thoughts behind it all will be in here. Every once in a while I'll try to capture something I don't want to forget. I hope you find things you enjoy. Please let me know if you do! Blessings!

Time to Vote!

Posted in Giveaways!

It's a final vote for the name of the third day for the Say What You Mean Convention. Who knew Leah and I would be finalists together? (Congratulations, Leah!)

So, JoJo needs your help. She needs all the votes possible to help decide the best name for the third day of the conference. So, alas, we are back to calling for a great voter turnout. If you voted in the semi-final round, thank you! Please pop over to see the three final choices and vote again. If you haven't seen this before, please visit the site to vote and see what this conference is all about. It looks FABULOUS.

After you vote, be sure to look for FIMM. He's hilarious! His video on the Art of Eloquence site cracks me up!

Vote HERE by the 12th, please.

Calling All Friends!

Posted in Giveaways!

Okay, friends. I don't normally do this kind of thing, but I sure could use your help. *grin*

See, there was this contest over at CommunicationFUNdamentals, and I submitted what I thought was a good name for the third day of the conference. You will also note that one of my good friends also contributed a fantastic idea. I'm sure any one of the ladies who thought of an idea would love to win the fabulous prize, but I thought I would let you know I was hoping to win! *grin* I thought you all needed to know about this.

Voting is needed! I hope you like my idea as much as I do, but can I just encourage a voter turnout, whatever the result?

Thanks, friends!

Site Promotion and a Giveaway!

Posted in Giveaways!

I love these things! Here I am, just surfin' the cyber wave in the Blog Universe, and I come across one of those "two-fers" you just have to add to your entries (even if it's the second post in a day). Knowing you all are patient and kind and don't mind me doubling up on entries, I thought I would add it!

SoCalVal is well known in the far reaches of the universe, but she has just begun promoting her new site that includes resources for teachers and home school moms all over this fine Blog Universe. It looks like it's going to be rich with blessings!

Doesn't she have a lovely little logo-button thing going on? Soooooo. . .pretty!

If you'd like to know more about this lovely little site or the giveaway, go HERE. Be sure to enter before April 11!
