Puppy Love

We got a new puppy yesterday.  He's a 6 week old, brindle Chihuahua.  I wanted to name him Tiny or Pepe but my boys thought that the names were too cliche'.  They wanted Rocky and since I just adore my sons ... Rocky it is :)

And because I'm in such a great mood from getting this new addition to the family, I may just be hosting another giveaway very soon.  Keep an eye out in the contest/giveaway page for the next prize pack!!!

Happy Weekend Everyone!

I want to thank everyone who has joined my blog and participated in my two giveaways.  If you were one of the winners, congrats!!!  You have some nice goodies coming to you!  If you didn't win, don't fret.  I'll be doing TONS of giveaways.  Be sure to join this blog to be eligible to win the giveaways (I do check ;) ).

I hope everyone is having a great weekend.  I'll be planting flowers tomorrow and hopefully making time to read outside.  I just love this time of year!  What are your plans for the weekend?  Talk to me.  I love hearing how my friends are doing!

I'll leave you with a couple cute pictures of my daughter, Bella.  The first is at the flower nursery where she was helping me push the cart with our flowers to the car.  The second was of her lounging on the deck reading my book.  There's something about the way she was laying there and the title of the book that just made me crack up!!!

Super Fun Contest/Giveaway Tomorrow!!! Stay Tuned. You Won't Want To Miss It!

Here's a HUGE hint and teaser ...

Welcome To My New Blog

Welcome to my new blog ... Book Mama.  I created this blog to be a fun place to chat about books, family and anything else that may be on my mind or yours!  I'm constantly seeing free e books online and will share them with everyone here.  Just a tip, if you see an ebook that you like, download it right away.  They don't tend to stay free for long!  So take advantage of them right away!

Here's a little bit about me and I'd love to hear more about you.  I'm a mom to five children.  They range from 3-21.  Yes, you read that right!  My kids are my life.  Being a mother is my biggest accomplishment and something I'm the most proud of.  I'm a huge reader.  It has to be a print book though.  I don't like ebooks and dread the day that print books become a thing of the past and ebooks are all that are sold.  My favorite genre is chick lit/women's fiction.  I love a fun book that I can get caught up in.  Currently I'm reading In Need of Therapy by Tracie Banister.  It's her second published novel and a fun read.  I'll write more about it after I finish it, but am thoroughly enjoying it.  It's a fun read and based out of Miami.  What's not to like?

Feel free to tell others about this blog.  I'll be posting some fun stuff on here and will have some prizes to give away often!  So share, share, share :)

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!
