Happy 200th Post!!

Hip Hip Hooray!! Today marks the 200th post of my blogging days!
I have to tell you, my BBFF's (Blog BFF's) Thank you Thank you for stopping by, leaving your inspiring comments, sharing a few laughs, a few creative moments, a few "what was I thinking?!" moments, putting up with my posts that are usually written holding one and sometimes 2 kiddos...THIS POST IS FOR YOU!

In honor of this 200th post, it's time for some humungo Giveaways!! Christmas has come early my friends!
First, a Brand New Big Shot from our friends over at Sizzix!!



A Brand New CuttleBug from our friends at Provo Craft!

with their awesome embossing folders!

A Crop-A-Dile Big Bite!!

I just purchased my Crop-A-Dile and I can't believe it took me so long! Until a week ago, I was still raiding Collin's toolbox for a hammer to pound my eyelets! This thing can set an eyelet as easy as punching a hole in paper. No joke, this summer I took Ali's CKU class and the girls at my table were laughing because I had never used one of these before and had no clue how it worked! It's awesome!

Last but not least... $15 iTunes Gift Card! I know a lot of you like the music on my blog (and if you don't, thanks for putting up with it!) now you don't have to be stuck at your computer to hear them!


Just leave a comment with your fave blog memory, post, song or anything you wish & I'll announce the winners later this week!!

My favorite post was the birth of your second daughter. Your words were truely inspiring and captures that "awestrckness" of welcoming a new one. I also liked how your MIL taked about your dad sending her on her way...

Hi there Liz.

I have to say that I have three favorites and I could not pick from those. So, I will tell you all of them. I loved when Collin got on your blog and told us all the things he loves about you for your birthday and then when you did the same for him. And, the third one that still makes me laugh is your Scrapbooker's Fantasy post. I love that he posed for all those pictures. I know that your household has got to have lots of laughter and love in it!!!

Congratulations,
Tina

I don't think I can pick just one! I just love your entire blog.

Mollie said...

Congratulations! To be honest, I just recently 'found' your blog and started stalking it:o) Therefore, my favorite post is pretty recent...it would definitely have to be the one about Cleetus! Hilarious!

I pretty much love everything about your blog -- I loved going through your pregnancy with you, the annoucement that you won the Scrapbooker of the Year Contest, the "yellow sunglasses" event, and so much more.

You also turned me on to Ingrid Michelson - Breathe is now one of my favorite songs.

Arizona Nielsens said...

Those mini-fabric books (a mini for mini me) are so inspiring. I think I see a few Christmas gifts in the making. How quick and easy!!!

Lisa J. said...

WOW!! Congrats on 200 posts. I do love the music you have on your blog. I don't remember exactly the post but it was before your baby was born and it was your first born with a little tshirt that you made her I believe. It was so adorable. And the one your dh made for you on your birthday. That was hilarious!

Love, love the one that your husband wrote for your b-day. Way too sweet and how fun he notices the "little things" more than the big one's. That's what life is made of!!

Anonymous said...

my question is simply, how in the world could you ever make a decision about who to give these amazing gifts to when you receive 826 comments!!! holy cow. i feel greedy by posting so i simply want to ask the question. teach me your perspective and i will hopefully learn from it and be a better person. don't want gifts want to be kinder.

Lan said...

My favorite was Collin's birthday post for you. Such a sweet family you have!

Christine said...

I love the song Slung-Lo - never heard it until your blog and then, I had to purchase via I-Tunes. Thanks for a great blog & Happy 200th!

Your blog is a happy place to come. I love the music, pictures of your beautiful children and craft projects. However, Halloween does stand out. Very funny.

Congrats on 200 posts. It's hard to pick just one post as a fave. Your blog is an inspiration from scrapbook ideas to music to things to blog about on my own page. I was recently inspired by your blog for your hubby and his in return on your birthdays to do a list of 39 reasons for my hubby's bday this year. And I must say, it made quite an impression. Thank you for the inspiration!

Jennifer said...

I love all of your blogs, your pictures are sooo amazing, they constantly inspire me to continue to grow in my photogrphy skills. Congratulations on 200 posts!!

Oh goodness, that husband of yours is so hilarious. I don't even have to click on all the links to refresh my memory about the posts. I know my favorite one is Scrapbooker's Fantasy. You'll never top that one in my mind.

Those pictures of your husband in the Scrapbookers Fantasy crack me up still. I have to show them to my husband and he got a kick out of them too. Thanks for always sharing with us.

Always, Amy said...

Elizabeth, if it weren't for you I would never have come to know the beautiful heart and spirit of NieNie. What an amazing woman. How is it that someone you have never physically met can make you want to be a better person/mother? Thank you for bringing her and her family to our attention. They have been in my heart and prayers since. Thank you for posting not only the good things, but also the not so good things that make life what it really is. You are very talented and we are the fortunate ones who get to catch a glimpse all because of this little world called blogging. Congratulations, here is to 200 more posts!
