MRL Anniversary Giveaway!

Untitled
Today is my 5 year wedding anniversary.  5 years married almost 15 years together...
Whew hew!  

It is also my 1 year, 2 months, and 1 day blogging anniversary at makingrebeccalynne.com  

I was writing a year in review blog post documenting some of my favorite posts over my first year.  The things I've learned, the things I've enjoyed, the things I've disliked...but whenever I sat down to finish this list I can't seem to encapsulate everything.

Instead, I've decided not to try.  

Instead, I'll tell you that over all I've really loved blogging MRL.  Even though it is a lot of work, takes time, and requires a lot of diligence, I would never trade the people I've met, the support I've found, the inspiration I've discovered in our awesome blogging DIY community.  

For Example, when I picked out this bundle of FQs at Sew Fresh Fabrics I excitedly told Peg at Sew Fresh Fabrics that I was buying it to post as a blog anniversary giveaway bundle.  I never expected her generosity when she decided to send me the bundle for free!!!  

My Point?  Celebrate Loud and Celebrate Often...Share Your Ups with others when you have them and Help Others Through Their Downs.  And more importantly...

HELLO! GO CHECK OUT SEW FRESH FABRICS.  GO!  RIGHT NOW!
