It's a Blog Party!

Hello! Welcome to my little stop along the party train... the blog party, that is! Part of the rules require me to introduce myself, so here goes!

I'm Brooke, and I'm a homeschooling mom to a 5 year old and a 16 month old. My husband is a currently out-of-work executive assistant, but God has been helping us through this time and we're doing okay. More than okay... this is my first blog announcement of this, but God blessed us with a really exciting trip win on Wednesday! I can't give out the details publicly until I am declared the official winner and I might even wait until I get the tickets, but I'm very excited about it and I'll be sure to post more about in the next couple of months as I can.

So as you can tell I like to win things! I also like to read, and save money! I don't shop much outside of groceries, but I love coming home with a carload of food for a pittance. I'm a big fan of Dave Ramsey too.

I blog about just about everything here. I blog about news stories, homeschooling, great sermons I hear, things I might notice when reading the Bible... whatever I feel like. I also write product reviews, but I do that for Epinions.com (they pay). I wrote my 175th review this month!

What's a party without door prizes? The party hosts, 5 Minutes for Mom, along with several other great sponsoring sites, are giving away some wonderful prizes for the party. They've asked party participating bloggers to list their favorite prizes on their party post, so here are some of the great prizes that I like:

• My baby can talk DVD set - I do signing with my little boy and it's great!
  
• $20 Amazon.com gift certificate provided by the Organized Knitting Club
  
• Chocolate provided by The Chocolistas - Yum!
  

I haven't even had a chance to look at all the prizes yet but there are some really good ones, so I'll add to this post later.
