Happy Ultimate Blog Party 2009!!!
Yes.. it is time! I have seriously waiting all week for this! It’s time to get your party on!! Check out this video and get the party started!!
In case you’re new, my name is Kati. I was born and raised in the sticks. Yep, country girl at heart here. I decided to move away for educational purposes, but someday plan to buy a house and maybe a little farm back home in Pennsylvania.
I am a mother of 2, a wife, and a full time college student. Miss Serenity was born in July 2006 and Caeden was born in November 2008. These kids are my LIFE. End of story. Heath and I have been together just under 5 years, I guess you can say we were kind of high school sweet hearts. I am a nursing student. I am currently getting my LPN license for the purpose of working while I continue on to get my masters degree. I am just nursing courses away from my BSN.
I listen to country music, watch STEELERS football, NASCAR, the rodeo, and playing video games. I have small, but meaningful collection of cowboy boots. I like my boot cut jeans with the holes in the knee. I rarely wear makeup and am the queen of the ponytail.
Don’t let that fool you. I LOVE to shop!! I can break out a sexy high heel like no other. I cannot live without lip gloss and my favorite color is pink. Speak
ing of which, I love Pink by Victoria Secret.
I am a coupon clipper and bargain shopper! I am new to CVS’in. I love a good deal more than anything. I have NO decorating style… seriously..
So, that is enough about me.. let’s move on to you! What can you win this week? Well, I am sponsoring yet another APRON giveaway. They were such a HIT at Spring Fling that I just couldn’t resist! I am prize USC 58. Yep, I am willing to ship to the US as well as Canada. So, let them know you want my prize!!!
Be sure to check out my calendar of events for this upcoming month! I hope you stick around! We’d love to have you!!
Some of those that caught my eye include:
1) #19, #21, and #22 $50 Target Gift Cards
2) USC 16 $50 Gift Card to Kristin’s Custom Creations
3) #49 Biggest Loser DVD/Cook Book
4) #58 Artisan KitchenAide Mixer
5) #106 Melissa & Doug Role Play Costume
6) #118 Old navy Gift Card
7) USC 30 Zoo Flash Cards

Being able to go from country girl to girly girl is definitely a good quality to have! I love those aprons, they are SO amazingly adorable.

I was going to suggest that we go and shop together but that might just be dangerous.

Well hello Miss Kati! You are one busy woman. How do you find time to do it all?
I have been a nurse for 16 years. I am glad you decided to go on for the BIG degree.
Good luck with everything and I will be back!

By the way, The Mom Nerd, did a tutorial on numbering comments in blogger. She is clever.
