Welcome to  {wow me} wednesday!



So glad YOU are here!

A few weeks ago I told you I was busy getting ready for our Cub Scout Blue & Gold banquet. Well everything turned out great…except I forgot to bring all the mother’s ribbons that I had made! grrrr! Oh well! Next pack meeting I’ll bring them for sure. ;)

Anyways, I just wanted to show you the cute centerpieces the Cub Scouts made for the tables. Our theme this year was robots…so they made robot centerpieces, of course! (These would be great for a robot themed birthday party for older kids, too!)  It’s just a tin can, magnets, nuts & bolts. So cute!

Apartments.com & a $25 VISA gift card {giveaway}

This post brought to you by apartments.com. All opinions are 100% mine.

It's been a little while since I've been apartment shopping! I would of loved to of had something like apartments.com to help in finding the perfect place to call home. (Did you know that Apartments.com also has a mobile app available for your iPhone, iPad or Android?  They do!)

The last time I remember apartment shopping was when we first got out of college, & my hubby got his first "real " job in Humble, Texas just north of Houston. So I thought it would be fun to use apartments.com to go on "virtual" apartment hunting trip to see what apartments I could find near there!

Apartments.com is very easy to navigate.  You just enter the town & state or zip code & click enter!  You can also narrow down your search by price, size, bedrooms, monthly payment or even amenities.  Apartments.com is not just for apartments either!  You can search for single family homes, condos or just about any where you could call home. They also offer floor plans, reviews & virtual tours to help you in your  home selection process!

Apartments.com made my "apartment hunting" pretty easy, and all from the comfort of my own home, too. ;) Well... it was hard but I did narrow my virtual apartment hunt to these top 3 choices. Here is what I liked best about each one! {Annnnd see how you could win a $25 VISA gift card!}

Nancy @ Small Things with Love {guest blogger}

Today I’m so excited to have Nancy over on my blog!  Her projects are ah-mazing, & I’m so excited to have her share some of them with you! Take it away, Nancy! :)

Hi, I'm Nancy and I blog over at Small Things with Love.


I could not be more excited to be guest posting here today.  Ginger's blog was one of the first that I really got hooked on.  And then, after you are hooked reading a blog, pretty soon you have to start blogging yourself (isn't that how it goes?).

I have been blogging for just under a year, and in that year I have learned a lot--and created some fun projects along the way.  Here are a few of my favorites:
