Enjoying a little party time!
If this is your first time stopping by Stories Of Life In The Middle Of Adoption, let me introduce ourselves...
I'm Kayce, a busy mom and wife who holds down a few jobs, one as a part time office clerk at our local junior high school and the other being the owner/operator of a house cleaning business, and...I am a stall holder with Barefoot Books where I sell children's books through my website, house parties, fundraisers and local events.
When I'm not working for someone else, I'm working for my family by being available to our teenage children at all times. I have two children, Holly who is 17 and is my step-daughter and my son, Jacob who will be 14 next week. My husband Mike and I are expecting our first child together through the wonderful world of international adoption. Currently we have waited 35 months for our daughter form China and are praying to see her face for the first time by years end. These next few months should be filled with so much joy and wonderment, we are very excited!
In our life we tend to enjoy the most of every moment and adventure for us is an everyday word. We love to spend time together and are frequently out and about in our travel trailer camping the state. We have two BEAUTIFUL English Springer Spaniels who are more spoiled than our children and go on all of our camping trips with us. Besides being passionate about the camping life, we also love movies, long walks on our beach, home remodeling, reading, card games, natural health, organic eating and most of all music.
Thanks for stopping by! I've been having fun stopping by other partygoers blogs and seeing more of what's out in the wild world of the internet! Good times! Oh I guess I'm supposed to say something about the prizes...HELLO they are incredible and there are so many great ones out there, I would love them all! But I'll go ahead and pick a few JUST incase I'm lucky.
# 52 - A $25 gift certificate to Ju Ju Beane Boutique
# 5 — Core Fitness for Mom DVD from Moms into Fitness
# 9 — Child’s Crayon Apron with Crayons from Kennedy Grace Boutique
# 21 — $50 gift certificate to Target Stores from Agoosa
I could go on and on with my wishes of prizes of my desire...

I was so touched by your blog. I am so glad that I found it through my FIRST ever Blog Party. I hope you will stop by my blog for a visit.
Though I am
new to blogging, I am loving all my new friends.
I am giving away my first EVER BLOG PRIZE.
I have a gift basket business and it is the most requested gift over the last 15 years.
From the comments I have already received, appears to be something a little different and something anyone could use.
I have been so touched by the comments that I have decided to give 2 boxes . They will be the $100 deluxe size.
I really do want to bless people!!! I want my blog to encourage others. I have decided that giving is life at its BEST. The drawing will be Saturday!

Thanks for stoppin by my site TwoHeartsTogether. I love your site as well, so neat to hear your thoughts
Have a good rest of your week at the blog party
Thanks for coming to my party! I have a friend who recently adopted a little girl from China and blogs about it at The Gang's All Here.
BTW, I am not very happy with Google that the word verification for this comment is "loser"!
Hi! Party hopping. Stop in for a visit.
The UBP has been fun, hasn't it?! This is the first blog party I've ever taken part in...can't wait for next year's!
You mentioned going to a Joyce Meyer conference in a later post...is she a speaker in this year's Women of Joy conferences line-up? The Women of Joy is coming up in our area in about three weeks and I'll be going (so, I shouldn't be admitting here that I'm not even sure who the featured speakers are! I know one is Pricilla Shirer--I really like her a lot...)...
Anyway, I am rambling! Comes from blog surfing so late at night that my eyes are beginning to cross!
Hello! Stopping in after the great "Kimberley" shower for Sophia. I recognize your photo!!
Happy Blog party!

Hi Kayce,
First timer here, shame on me. You were sweet enough to send me a quilt square for my quilt square shower (through Kimberley) last June while we were waiting to travel for our 2nd daughter.
Anyway, I'm Kelly (aka Truly Blessed) and I was the one taking photos of Kimberley opening all of the gifts today at her shower. That was such fun, and what a fun way to have a cyber shower. I'm glad I was able to be part of it (of course, living close to the shower-ee helps greatly!).
So, I'll go and check out your blog now. Just wanted to say "hi!"
Kelly

Ta!
