New Followers: #50, #51, #52, #53 , #54, #55, #56, #57, #58 & #59

This week, Oregon Gifts gained four new followers!  Yay, thank you, ladies!  On Mondays, I enjoy highlighting and introducing our new followers from the previous week.  This also coincides with Homemaker on a Dime's Swap Follower Linky Party (see more about that at the end of this post).


Follower #50 is Christine, from Christine's Home and Travel Adventures.  Christine lives in the Southern U.S.

 


Follower #51 is Court from Idaho.  Her blog is Frog 2 Fab:



Follower #52 is Micki from Kansas, and her blog is Forget Me Not:

Mickie and her daughter Brittany.


Follower #53 just came on board as I was making this post!  Please welcome Syndee Knapp of Illinois.  I'm not sure if Syndee has a blog set up yet, but on her profile, she reports that she homeschools  that she designs childrens clothing.  Welcome, Syndee!



Another new follower has signed up today, #54, Marie from Bonkers in Barnhart:

 Marie and her family.  Welcome!


Follower #55 has now arrived!  From Bend, the nearest big city to Mayberry.  Wow.  Welcome to Liana, from Liana's Lifetime:

Liana's Girl

I also want let you know about Magical Mystical Teacher.  MMT is a special education teacher who writes poems as many times a day as I take and post pictures.  On Shadow Shot Sundays, MMT leaves a poem to those she visits as her comment.  Her weekly poems are a fun thing to look forward to.  I used one of her poems in this blog post last week: If Shadows Could Talk.  When you get a moment, here is her blog link: Magical Mystical Teacher.


Now, let's talk a minute about Homemaker on a Dime's new linky party.  This is it's second week, and SJ's linky party opens at 5:00 on Monday evenings.  If you would like more followers on your blog and/or want to meet new people to follow, scoot on over here to learn the details:  "Swap Followings".  After you read how it works, click on "Home" and sign-up to participate.


Follower #56 - J and J Home:




Follower #57 - Nichole from Kansas at This Train Doesn't Stop:

Nichole and her children.


Follower #58 - Jordon at Military Spouse House:



Follower #59 - Debbie, Illinois,  from Slice of Pie:

    Kathy, Thanks for the warm welcome. I think you are right--we have a lot in common. I think you get a lot more "done" than I do judging from your blog. I'm trying to decide if you just stay up 24/7 and drink gallons of that 5 Hour "stuff" or "what"!!!! Your granddaughter is lovely and it sounds like you do many things with her. My husband would give his children away if he could catch a sturgeon ( or any fish for that matter) of that size. What a thrill!

    Hi Mickie, you made me laugh. No, I don't stay up all night, and only drink the regular 2 cups of coffee in the morning. I'm just not working on anything but my blog ... trying to figure everything out. We really did squeeze in a lot of things with Kylie being here, and I took pics and put them on here ... she lives out of state, so we were busy, busy, busy when she was here.

    Yep, that fish is big, isn't it!
    Thanks for stopping by ... can you email me sometime? I think we may know some of the same folks in KS.

    Take care,

    Kathy

    Hi Kathy,

    I'm from the swap party over at Homemaker on a Dime and glad I found your blog. Your pictures are amazing! I was taken back by the beauty of the picture in your most recent post. I have never been to Oregon but it seems like a beautiful place to be!

    Hi! I've jumped over from the swap party and your photographs sold me! I'm following you. I've visited Oregon a few times ... and found it to be a beautiful state. Your photographs certainly prove that. Hope you drop by to visit with me. Nice to meet you.
