Blog bash!

Blogmania bloggers are all about building relationships -between our blogs, our cherished readers, the online community and business owners. We value each other's opinion as we all are endeavoring to make the best
choices for our home life. So it seemed natural to partner up with The LaneReal Estate Team and Breebee's blog to bring you our first ever twitter and blog blast party. The Lane RealEstate Team is all about building relationships through communities - specializing in Kennewick Homes for Sale. And Bree is a blogger - and a mom - trying to think outside of the box and help build community ties in NW ColumbusOH via her Macaroni Kid event website! Our other twitter party sponsors also offer items to help strengthen and maintain relationships - from stationary to hand stamped sentiments.

1st Annual Blog Bash @ Not Your Average Teen

Hey ya'll! I am linking up with Brittany over at Not Your Average Teen. It's a week long blog bash full of wonderful surprises! So, first things first, my introduction post!

I'm Jillian--a 23 year old stay at home mommy to the one year old Ryder! He is my world. I also have another world of school. I plan to apply for nursing school somewhat soon, depending on a few things. I like to decorate cakes and cupcakes. I am in the beginning stages of opening an Etsy shop for paper favor boxes, banners and other goodies. Right now I am in the process of a 30 day journal, so if you'd like to know more about me, check that out!

Now, onto the questions:

1.) Why do you blog?

I blog as an outlet. Sometimes. I have been slacking in my "normal" posts lately due to not being in my own home and whatnot. I blog to share wonderful things with the world. 

2.) What do you blog about?

Everything! My life, life in general, my sons life, the world, fun things I find, etc. My blog is no limits, I have no "theme." 

3.) What do you find to be the biggest reward you get from blogging?

Somewhere to let my brain free. There are so many thoughts going around in there I need to let them out somehow. And yes, I do realize that most of my recent posts aren't anything like that. BUT I have my "drafts" waiting! 

4.) How long have you been blogging?

I'm going to say since June because that's when I started everyday blogging. 

5.) Let's hear the story behind your blog title! :)

Prenda Le Stelle is Italian for "take the stars." I love this saying because it's pretty much my motto. I believe that life is what you make it. If you want to take the stars out of the sky, you can. If you want to be miserable, you will be. I truly believe that your life is YOUR life and you make it the way you want to.
