My Funny Valentine---A Photo Contest

Sweet Joni from the blog Six Cherries on Top and I are teaming up to bring you, the first ever...


With the contest just a few short weeks away, it's never too early to start digging through your boxes of old photos to find your very best "cutest couple" photo.

Don't have an old photo you want to use? No problem. Grab your camera and snap away! Both old photos and new shots are welcome!

You can use any photo, from a picture from your high school prom, to a shot of you and your current sweetheart or special someone. You can use a photo of your parents, grandparents, or your little munchkin and their best friend. Even a photo of the fuzzy Mr. and Mrs.Duck from your daughter's favorite pond would work. Just get creative, and most importantly, have fun!

You don't have to be a professional photographer and your photo does not have to be taken by you, but please make sure you have permission to use it. (Your photo must be an original. Though it doesn't have to have been taken by you, please do not submit images from any photo sharing site, like We Heart It, Flickr, or Google Images. Thank you!)

Here are a few photos to get you inspired:

It's not easy being green, or is it?---Gillian Grace, 2011

Santa Smooches---GG, Christmas 2009

Daddy's Girl---Sweet Bean and Bret, July 2010

High School Sweethearts---My mom and dad, Summer 2008






Be sure to stop back by here ( Webbisodes) or over at Six Cherries on Top,  for a full description of the rules and to link up your best "cutest couple" photo on February 1st.

Photos will be voted on by all of y'all and 4 winners will be chosen.

Thanks to Joni, we have some amazing prizes available to the winners! And the best news of all, four winners will be selected.

Take a sneak peek at our fabulous sponsors!

Miscellany Monday

sharing is not always caring

{one} It seems Sweet Bean will share just about anything these days---including her cold! Now the Hubs and I are both a sneezing sniffling mess and trying our darnedest to kick this bothersome bug before Thursday!



home tour

{two} Don't forget to get your pictures and post ready, tomorrow is our second installment of Home Tour Tuesday! Tomorrow's theme- 2 things around the house you're thankful for (besides the kids and your spouse).




bite me

{three} GG's teething...again! This weekend was a mixture of skipped naps, cuddling, and out of nowhere, temper tantrums! But the good news is, we all survived, no worse for the wear. And, fingers crossed, we are nearing an end to this round of teething. At best estimate, I've counted at least  four new teething setting up residence in Gillian Grace's mouth, poor baby! Teething is stressful, and Sweet Bean's crib has the gnaw marks to prove it!

{It goes without saying, but this is NOT Gillian Grace}


two little tots

{four} Giveaway, giveaway, giveaway! Melissa from Two Little Tots is giving away a $25 store credit to her online shop. Melissa sells all sorts of handmade goodies for momma and child. All comments on today's post will automatically be entered to win, it's that easy! But for an extra entry, swing by Melissa's shop and leave a separate comment telling me about something that catches your eye!



brown delivers

{five} Thanks to my bloggy (turned real-world) friend, Laura, Gillian Grace is going to look super festive this Christmas in her custom made red, green, and white tutu! I honestly don't know how Laura finds the time to make anything with her busy household of four (soon to be five) kiddos, but I'm sure glad she decided to surprise us with this one! Now any ideas for a family Christmas card? After reading so many cute ideas, I'm seriously drawing a blank when it comes to something original!

Hmm! Anything else in here?!

Hope your Monday is off to a great start! And, let the countdown to Turkey Day begin!
