Blessing Others as we are Blessed

Easter is over, time to gather all the bunnies, chicks and eggs and pack them away for another year.  We had a blessed Easter sharing it with family and friends.  The kids ate more candy than they ever have in their life (which is not hard to do since they really don't get much to begin with..lol)...


We have been so blessed lately with winning so many great giveaways here in blogland..I wanted to share some of them with you and at the end of the post, we are paying it forward with some giveaway news...I don't enter a lot of giveaways, only the ones that I think the kids would really enjoy winning or ones that would save me money in my budget somehow (hey with the price of gas, a gal hasta save ya know!)


My hubby always says to me....You gotta be IN IT, to WIN it!  So here are some great things we have won over the past month...
