2014 Grow Your Blog

Hi,  I'm participating with Vicki and all her lovely linkers at 2Bags Full in this year's 2014 Grow Your Blog. I like reading and following other blogs to see what y'all are doing and to see what I may be missing out on that I could be doing. My blog is about everything from a-z. You'll hear a lot about family and then I throw in a little sewing, quilting, crocheting, paper banner making, and every craft in between and you'll see a lot of house work and outdoor stuff.

It's a new year. There are already a few new things for me to look forward to this year. For one, 32 days to my retirement. Can't wait to enjoy everyday with no set work schedule. Then we'll be welcoming new grandbaby #3 due May 31st. Babies are always exciting news. I hope your new year brings excitement to your household, too.


                                    

Thanks for stopping by and be sure and visit the other bloggers at 2014 Grow Your Blog.

    Hey Gin popping in from the GYB team of volunteers. Welcome to the party!

    I'm totally going to have to go and check out "Mom in the Wilderness" as well.
    We live up in Northern ON in a wee shakey shack with no running water. We do have power and ... of course... HIGH SPEED. A gal has to have priorities, right?

    32 days to retirement? Congratulations!!! Wishing you a year of new adventures, fun and love love love.


    Have a great time at the party!

    go easy ~p

    You sound like a fun and varied blogger to follow. Congrats on your retirement and the new grand baby. I have one grand baby, 2 year old Mason. So fun. Hope you'll visit me. Enjoy the party

    Hi Gin,

    I'm visiting from the Grow Your Blog party. It is so nice to meet you. I'm jealous - only 32 days until retirement. I have about 15 years to go ... LOL. I plan to look around a bit more and then be on my way to visit the others. I do hope you will stop by for a visit and enter my giveaway. Have a wonderful weekend! Hugs – Donna

    Hi Gin, you asked about the patterns for the crochet dresses on my blog. I'll share a link to my ravelry page and you can find there most if not all of the patterns.
    Have a great day!

    Thanks for sharing your blog. I'm still working through all the blogs from GYB. A little over 1/3 of the way through. Please feel free to visit my embroidery blog. (I'm in the 1st set on the list.)

    Nice to meet you and learn a little about you and your family. Congrats on your retirement. I often wonder how I ever got anything done when I worked full time. Thanks for sharing your lovely blog.
