Well, friends, it’s been a good run, but after five years of blogging – exactly five years ago today – I think enough is enough, don’t you?

JUST KIDDING!

I can’t even believe where God has taken me over the past five years with blogging. Home with the Boys started as a tiny little personal blog to keep family and friends updated about all the new changes in our life – a second baby, me staying home, and the start of medical school. Now it is a creative outlet, a place to share the words God places in my heart and the things our family loves, a wonderfully fun place to connect with all of you!

I am humbled by the way He grown me in this journey and by the incredible friends I have made because of the blogging world. Some of my very favorite people in the world I met because of blogging. Now if only we lived closer…

I want to celebrate YOU today. If you weren’t reading and commenting, I’m not sure this would have kept going for so long. God has used all of you to encourage me, inspire me, grow me. I am so thankful for all of you and I pray for you often.

Any good celebration has gifts, and I’m going with a “My Favorite Things” theme for some pretty awesome giveaways to celebrate five years! These giveaways are a collection of some of my favorite things I’ve discovered through blogging! Check out these FIVE fabulous prize packages for FIVE fabulous years:
