Secret Santa…blogger style!

This year Hudson and I participated in a blogger holiday gift swap for kids and it was SO fun! Erinn from Strawberry Swing and Other Things helped organize us and pair us up with secret Santas. The task: shop for another blogger’s little one and send a $20 limit sweet surprise in the mail. Hudson absolutely LOVED getting an early Christmas present in the mail…and it was fun for me too!
Our secret Santas were Michelle and her cutie pie son HDawg from Ten June!
Want to see what we got?

And as if today couldn’t get any sweeter….read on for a chance to win a $15 Starbucks card! Let me introduce you to another fabulous blogger….Emily from They Call Me Mama!

Hey, it’s me Emily over at They Call Me Mama. I am so happy to be a part of sponsoring The Girl in the Red Shoes this month. I recently started reading Julie’s blog and can’t get enough!

 I am a 20-something, almost 30, small town girl who met a city boy and fell in love. Mark and I have been happily married for almost 6 years. God blessed us with a twin pregnancy and the Lord has baby Ryder on his lap. We are so blessed to have Wyatt here on Earth with us! Only 21 months later our family expanded to a family of 4 when we welcomed our princess Sloane into the world.

To sum me up in a few words: I am a Christian, wife to best husband, SAHM mama & 2 pups, lover of Diet Coke, Mcdonalds, cleaner, wanna be baker, decorator, obsessive organizer, and business owner…Oh ya, and I am in love with my Chiropractor. 😉 

Emily is kindly offering up a $15 to Starbucks….enter below and be sure to hop on over to Emily’s blog and say hello!

  3. Love that puzzle and we love touch and feel books! And Ashlynn still prefers to take pieces out of the puzzle than put them in, but we are working on it 😉

  6. Awww so fun to see Hudson playing with the toys! I knew that doggie book would be a hit, it's one of our favs! Otherwise entitled the "oof oof boo" if you're HDawg : ) Merry Christmas! xo
