Since becoming a blogger I’ve found a great group of women to call my friends. Some live far away and I only get to see them once or twice a year. But in Georgia we our group gets together at least once a month if not more for blogger events that are hosting in Atlanta. A few years ago I became a featured writer for Fox 5 Atlanta’s Mom site. I was chosen with three other great ladies as well. We ended up spending a lot of time together through our writing and being on Fox 5 together. We all became very close. One of those bloggers is Krystyn from Really, are You Serious? Krystyn and I have become great friends since we first met. We went through a pregnancy together. We get pitched by reps with our names on the others email. We support each other not only in blogging but in other aspects of our life as well. She’s no longer just a “blogging friend,” she is a true friend.
Today she is celebrating a huge milestone in the blogging world. Her blog just turned 10. Ten years of blogging, that’s a long time. She’s hosting an AWESOME giveaway on her site that you can enter from here down below. I also I asked her to elaborate on how she got started and how things have changed. This is what she had to say.
I started my blog in 2005 when I was in graduate school and needed a place that wasn’t graduate school. It was initially as a place where only a couple friends came to read it and gradually grew. It has now become my own little community where I could talk parenting and life. It’s followed the journeys of a new house, births and everything in between; from graduate school, to a teaching job, to working for myself from home!
Congrats Krystyn, I’m glad to call you my friend. Here’s to many more great years to add to it.
Win this awesome prize pack from Really, are you serious! A Google Nexus 7 tablet, case, Google Play gift card, Disney clutch and a Blu-Ray combo pack of Best of Me. Show Krystyn some love and leave her a “way to go” comment and then enter her great giveaway.

The thing I love most about this blog is that it is a tech giveaway. I love contesting.
I enjoy the recipes on the blogs that I read, some of them are new and some are old favorites that were forgotten. I also like to learn about new products that I normally would not know about and the chance to win them and to try them out prior to them hitting the market.
I enjoy the giveaways the most on this blog. The recipes come in handy, too.
I enjoy reading about how different people raise their kids and sometimes the way that they handle certain situations with their kids, parenting tips, product reviews.
Very nice
