It aint a party till someone's sporting a lampshade

We even have the dog partying...looks impressed eh?

This is my first year blogging and wanted to jump into this ultimate blog party that is being hosted by 5 minutes for mom. Stop by and check some sites out as it is a great way to meet new people and get your space noticed at the same time. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you stay awhile.

Little about our crazy life...well, I live on my parents farm with my hubby and 2 children (3 and 9 months) We have 14 horses , one neurotic great dane and an old cat. I am constantly looking for creative ways to spend time with my family, perfect my job as homemaker and most of all finding ways to save some of my hubby's hard earned dollars. I write on my adventures in the kitchen, the garden, some crafting ideas and how to save money and my sanity. Leave me a message because I am always looking for some new sites to get hooked on.

Don't forget to check this awesome site out for more blogs to pass the time http://www.5minutesformom.com/

Oh I'm crazy for your beautiful Harlequin Dane! My last Dane, Abby, passed a few years ago, but I have tons of photos of her wearing her Santa hat, and the exact same expression, at Christmas.

Happy blog party!

Nice to meet you! :)

Karen said...

Okay, the dog? Is totally me before my morning coffee. I have that look, no, I OWN that look. *grin*

It sounds like you have your hands full! And I can't imagine how busy you must be with the children and the animals. I'm all about being frugal, too. Though it's safer to say, I'm downright cheap, truth be known. *grin*

Brandie said...

Hello! Sounds like a lot of fun is going on there at the farm! =) And yeah for saving!! I only recently discovered the joy of saving (I know, if i had discovered it much sooner in life things would be a whole LOT different now!) but at least i found it and hope my kids learned from our mistakes! =)

Better get back to my carriage before it turns in to a pumpkin!
