January Currently, Sale, and MLK Giveaway/Freebie!!

Wow! Happy New Year Friends!,
 
It's hard to believe another year has come and gone! 2013 was an amazing year for me & is going to be a hard year to beat, but I'm ready to tackle 2014 head on.
Well since it's the first of the month, it's time for Currently with Farley from Oh Boy 4th Grade. Here's what I'm up to Currently!
 
Listening...that's pretty self explanatory!!
Loving...I am just so blessed to have my 2 girls! They are my world. I am so grateful that God has blessed me with them!
Thinking... a few of my blogger friends & I have something big in the works. We are still working on it, but I am so excited to be a part of it!! I can't wait to let the cat out of the bag, so to speak!
Wanting...I just started watching Scandal a few nights ago on Netflix! O.M.G! I flew through season 1 already & I can't wait to start on season 2. I was instantly addicted! Who here watches Scandal?
Needing...Another week of Winter Break! I have enjoyed having this winter break off so much. No stress, time to work on creating...it's fabulous!
My favorite memory... Both of my daughters' first Christmas. My little baby Reagan just celebrated her first Christmas this year. Here is a picture of my girls!:
 
Also, to ring in the New Year, I'm throwing a sale today & tomorrow in my TPT store as we all prepare to go back to school next week (sigh!)
