Favorite Things Blog Swap!!

So a few weeks ago I decided to be a part of a blog swap! For those of you who do not know what a blog swap is...you are missing out! just kidding! :)  It reminds me of a pen pal...You send the blogger your email address and tell them you want to participate and then they pair you up with another blogger!  You gather up your favorite things ($25 price limit) box it up and send it to your person- then they do the same for you!! Thank you Leeann for setting up the blog swap! I really enjoyed and hope to do another one!
I was so excited when I found out who I was paired up with! Her name is Amanda and her blog is Simple Girl, Simple Pleasures. She is precious!! I have enjoyed getting to talk to her through email! She is so positive and uplifting!!!! If you get a chance you should check her out!
I was like a little kid getting her box ready to send off and then it was even more exciting waiting for my box to get here!! She put together a great box and I loved all of her favorite things! My husband did too because he already ate one of the things!! ;)
Funfetti cake mix- my favorite thing!!!, pink straws, cards, heath bar and peanut butter m&ms(Matthew ate), nailpolish, lotion, and an Itunes card!! Thank you Amanda...you have great favorite things!!

Well...tomorrow we are leaving on vacation! I was going to take the computer and blog while I was there, but I have decided I just want to dedicate ALL of my time to the boys, and the beach! so I will not be blogging any next week...TEAR! I know I am going to miss it, but I think we are making a wise choice by leaving the computer at home!
Please keep us in your prayers...safe travel, and no issue during the trip!!!
Hope everyone had a blessed Saturday!
