done and done!! here's the post about this giveaway: http://aandaasonnek.blogspot.com/2010/09/blog-books.html
ReplyDeletefrom the very first day that my now husband and I were engaged i started a "wedding blog" so that i could write all about the feelings, emotions, events and experiences that my husband and i had during our 1.5 year engagement and also monthly anniversary updates and SOME idea recaps for the 1st year, i WOULD LOVE and have been planning to get a book printed for our 1st year as another wedding memento.
i can't wait to see if i get picked!! my fingers are crossed, thanks! Andrea
I have 4 children and an active duty Marine for a husband. We try and spend as much time together as possible knowing that Daddy could leave again at any given time. I didn't get into blogging until the beginning of 2008, ever since then I have been an avid blogger and would LOVE to be able to print it. How much fun that we get to enter into a drawing like this!! Thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that I did post it on my blog, although it has been set to private I will send you an invite to see it :) Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to do this since you originally offered it and it just hasn't been in our budget at this time. I started blogging just before my daughter was born over 2 years ago and have been updating our blog for family/friends that live far so they can see what has been going on with our household and the growth of our daughter. We are now expecting a son at the end of the year and how this would be such an awesome keepsake for our family!

Thank you for the opportunity and hope to hear from you guys soon :)
So excited. I have already printed one and have decided this is the best way to keep a journal. From now on this will be a yearly tradition for me . Hopefully it will even be interesting to my posterity someday. I love the combination of words with pictures and comments from others.

I would love to win the blog book, mostly so my husband will actually read some of the stuff I have written on our blog :) I also think it is a great way to keep a journal and would be wonderful to have in print!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win a blog book for my daughter who is 6. Every week we type up a story she has written and post it, to be able to put all her stories in a book would absolutely be a most wondrous gift!

ReplyDeleteI want to win because I would love to have all my memories put into a book for my son. I started a journal, but this would be sooo much better. I have things that are just not in my journal on my blog. They are memories and I would love to have them in a book! Thanks for the chance to win!!!

We are currently in the process of trying to work on our book, but unfortuneately we are a few pages over and a whole lot of $$$ short. I suppose since we started our blog back in 2008, we have covered a LOT of ground. We REALLY want a book to share with our son when he grows up so he can read and learn about the journey we have had to have him in our lives. Our Blaze Xennon is our miracle child, born to us via surrogacy in India and an Indian egg donor. After many attempts with our eggs and negatives and failed IUI's and miscarriages since 2005 our dreams came true with his birth in Sept. 2009. Blaze just turned 1 last month and we thought what a better time then now to make our blog (his story) into a book. It is about our entire journey filled with, hope, sadness and ultimate happiness. What better gift for our son to have as a keepsake for years to come.
