Happy party time!
Welcome, once again, to
You're Gonna Love It Tuesday!
Good news!
As of today, if Mother Nature cooperates,
there are only 37 days left of winter!
I cannot wait to see Spring!
I may just be bold and kiss it right on the lips!
I'm looking forward to Valentine's Day and my birthday this weekend.
Mr. B and I recently made the agreement that, since both of our birthdays fall so close to the Christmas holiday, our birthday's are now just a card and dinner of our choosing.
So, since mine falls on the Valentine weekend, I'll hold off on a steak dinner for another week because, I don't like to fight the crowds and I won't pay extra for the same meal that was 20% cheaper last week LOL.
Remember, I am a thrifty gal!
But, I will always take a party for my birthday so, c'mon, your gift to me is showing off your latest posts!
The most viewed post last week came from Noreen at the Crafty Journal blog
I think this would be awesome to use a larger bill, say a 20 or bigger, as a graduation, wedding or birthday gift!
Thank you Noreen for this fun post! Be sure to grab an

Mohawk Home Rug Giveaway
I have going on right now**
Okay! Now, Let the Party begin!!
Feel free to link up anything you have created.
Recipes, decor, crafts, written or photographed.
Anything you are so proud of you just gotta share it with others.
I will reserve the option of deleting any post that I do not feel fits the
theme of my blog.
be sure to follow me there too! As always, you don't have to be a follower in order to link up. I want you to follow Kathe With An E because you want to, not because it is required.
I would love it if you would link back in some way so that others come and party with us. Either grab the party button or add my blog link to your post or on your blog party page. But again, it's not required.
I ask that you please DO NOT link up giveaways, Etsy shops or anything for sale. Save those for the first Tuesday of each month (NEXT WEEK!) when,
Anything Goes!
Please remember, this is a party. So, after you link up, mingle around
and visit some of the other party guests.

ReplyDeleteKathe, I am so with you on spring. I seriously cannot remember a winter where it has snowed every day for a whole month. I need to travel this coming weekend and the forecast was sunny at first...and now it's showing snow. Spring cannot arrive any too soon! LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!!! May your new year be blessed beyond imagination!

Thanks so much for having me today-I haven't been partying for ages so it's great to be back!

I hear ya! My son called from LA this afternoon and said he was sweating! I said send me some of that sunshine -- it is sooooo dreary and cold here. I think Atlanta is going to get hammered much worse than we will here in Bham, although we are supposed to get freezing rain in our area.
ReplyDeleteI have already made a few money hearts for the sweethearts on my list. Thanks for hosting.
