Wow!
One Year! The Sullivan Sitcom is one year old! I feel like celebrating!
I honestly can't believe I've kept this thing going. I thought for sure I would have given it up by now (I know, I need to work on my confidence issues!) I'm really excited about having this past year made into a book for our family to look back at. An instant scrapbook of the year's events! Have any of you done this yet? What website did you use? Was it pricey?
Before we get to the giveaway part, I want to take a minute and let you ALL know all much I LOVE hearing from you. If you are a real life friend or family member or a bloggy friend who has somehow found me. THANKS! If you are someone who reads my blog daily or just pop in every once in a while! THANKS! If you leave comments on a regular basis or someone who has never left a comment. THANKS! I love you all and just knowing you are there, brightens my day.
I found this a few weeks ago on Mari's blog. It's a list of the top 10 people who have commented on my blog. Isn't that cool! It is in the top left corner of my blog...go check it out. I thought this was a great tool for this post! Where are you on the list? Kerry at Colored With Memories is the #1 commenter! Thanks Kerry! Guess what you get a prize! How fun is that, and easy as pie! (Kerry, send me your address and I'll get your prize out in the mail!)
Okay, now on to the goods! I must tell you that this isn't a huge giveaway! In fact it's pretty much not that exciting, just a few little things that I love.
1. A $15 Target gift-card (it's not much, but every little bit helps right!) Who doesn't love Tar-jay?!?!
2. Two little coin purses from my new favorite ESTY seller! (One is for you to keep and the other is for you to give to someone special to you!) I just need to tell you that Theresa was very kind to donate one of the coin purses for this bloggy giveaway! Her handi-work and customer service are top-notch and these little coin purses are just adorable. I have ordered 2 different times now! Thank you so much Theresa for your generous donation.
3. Scripture Mints! I found these the other day and they are so cute!
So there you have it! Yep, that's all I've got!
Now, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post. Come on, I know you can do it! Even if you don't have a blog...you can still leave a comment. Even if you comment under anonymous, that's fine too...just make sure to include your name and email address so I have a way to contact you if you are the winner.
Want two chances to win? Click on the "follow me" section and then make sure to leave me a comment that you are a new follower. Then you will be entered twice. If you are already a follower, just mention that in your comment and you can be entered twice as well.
This is going to be so fun! It's easy...you can do it!
Email me if you need help...I'd be glad to offer my assistance! Just click on the "email me" button on my sidebar!
Also, just so you know, I'm going to welcome your comments till midnight Sunday night. I will use the random number generator to find the winner! US shipping only....sorry international friends!
Thanks for helping me celebrate this special occasion! Now let's get this party started! (I'm singing the 'Pink' song...can you hear me...awww, I'll just play it for ya!)

Yea! I'm the first to post a comment. Happy Blogoversary! So fun! Anyhow, I love following your blog. It's so nice to be connected with someone from home. You have a beautiful family and I love hearing all about them. Hope you will keep your blog going for another year. Maybe next time I'm home, we can meet for lunch. Max and Mason would have a lot of fun together. Take care.
Happy Birthday to you!!!!! You have inspired me and I started a blog too. It is not near as fancy and I haven't given the address to just everyone yet as I am still working things out. But I will give you the address soon, I promise! Thanks for inspiring!!!! Paul loves reading your blog too and reading things about the kids. Palmer loves when there are pictures or videos he can see with Maggie and Max! Our whole family just loves the blog! Thanks for letting us share. I make sure and check back every day to see what is new! Congratulations on 1 year!!!!!
I don't need to be included in your gift-away promotion -- save that for your YOUNG family and friends. The fact that I get to view your blog and see what you and your family do every single day is gift enough for me!
Hugs

Hi Traci! You have a beautiful blog and I am making it one of my resolutions to start one this year since we are apart from our family. Words and pictures could bridge the miles. It feels slightly voyeuristic to reply on your blog but I love reading about real women and real mom's. It makes my day feel normal! Congratulations on your one year mark! - Beth (aka swimming upstream)
YOU GO GIRL! ONE YEAR, YAHOO! i knew you would stick with it. what a great song and a pink cake u know how much i love that! i'm singing along with u! it's been a privilege and a highlight of my day to be able to visit your blog every day. THANK YOU FOR SHARING! happy blogoversary, that's awesome!love and blessings, pinky
Traci - it's great to get to feel a little "connected" through your blog! Happy blogoversary!
Isn't it crazy how a few inches of snow can make the trip around the block seem like miles? Thanks for the blog it reminds me that you are there, in warm times and in cold. Congratulations to blog-fabulous Traci!
Happy Blogoversary! I found you from our Hot For the Holidays run on Missy's blog and have been a reader/follower ever since! It's nice reading that I'm not alone in all the craziness of being a mommy! Thanks for sharing your life!
Happy Bloggy anniversary! I like your idea of using the top commenter as a winner. I'm already a follower!
Traci, I'm already a winner! I've been able to reconnect with you through your blog, and that has been a blessing to me. I know we say, "let's keep in touch," but that just doesn't seem to happen. Now, it is possible! And, I'm working on a site for myself, and Rachael is also working on a site. All inspired by you!! Thanks!
#3, what's up with that? i thought i was #1. heehehehe. so how can anyone stop by here today and not leave w/ their groove on. great song. wonderful prizes and (no brown nose-in') but FABULOUS bloggy buddy. congrats on your blogversary!
Ok, I know I can't participate in the drawing since I'm one of those "international" friends, but just wanted to say hi and Happy Anniversary! I LOVE your blog and so much enjoy reading about your family. I can relate to so many of your experiences and just have to laugh. Have a great weekend.
Woohoo - a year! I for one am so glad you stuck with it, you know I love coming here to visit. And darn, I was SO close with the commenter thing. ;) Ha!
Anyway, Happy Blogoversary, and you picked some really fantastic prizes.
Wow, you have international friends! I'm impressed!
Reading this post just remeinded me that I didn't post anything for my blogoversary. I started a few, I guess I'll be back blogging! (darn that Facebook!) Good thing I have you to remind me of important things!!
The benefit of someone here in town winning is that you don't have to buy stamps...not that I'm trying to pursuade the random # generator or anything! =)
Oh, one more thing, if I'm #6 and #10 does this mean I have multiple personalities or that I should actually be number #3 and bump out Lisa? Just asking...
did i win yet!? bwhaha!
Traci - Congrats on 1 year of blogging! I love reading it and staying somewhat connected to our old neighborhood now that we're 750 miles from it! Give my love to everyone on T. Street and keep up the great work! Give your kiddos a hug from Fiona.
