Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!! ( Happy Bomb!)


Ok....oh my gosh... Ok....  Oh my gosh. I won something!  I never win anything. No really... I don't.  I'm always the last person called at any kind of raffle when the last thing left is a free pen.

A huge big thank you to Iffy at Stay At Home Nation and Ancestry.com! I just won a year long premier membership to Ancestry.com.  My family and I are always looking to find new information on ancestors  and sharing it with other relatives. I find it completely fascinating when you can find another family  member or more info  about the ones you already knew about. I had one of their trial  memberships before but after it ran out, I just daydreamed about it.

This awesome wall of family photos is at my mom's house. Even though they moved once , the photo wall went up again at the new house. It wouldn't be right without it.  It's not all  fancy and artsy but that's my history right there, all sitting together.  Now, I get to find out as much as I can about them. Pretty cool.




Iffy always has great giveaways and a linky party that I have had the pleasure of being featured on.  She's getting ready to rock this fall with all kinds of cool posts.

Check  out  Iffy's blog    for bloggy coolness ( like naked Barbie cover ups LOL )  And check out Ancestry.com  for anything you've ever wanted to know about your family. The trial membership is so cool you'll want to keep digging for more info. And you know, now  you will be seeing some family history type posts coming up in  the future so stay tuned.

( I was not paid at all for this post.  I was just so excited to win that  I couldn't help it )
