Printcopia Review & Giveaway

Printcopia

Printcopia is a great place to go and get your pictures turned into artwork.   It is super easy to upload your pictures and adjust them to how you like them.

I just love how the picture I had done turned out.  It reminds me of a painting and it is such a great idea to give as gifts this year.  Canvas prints are a great way to add to walls and give pictures a finished looked. I love that all you have to do is hang it on the wall and it good to go.  I have found that there is nothing worse that getting a print made only to realize that you still have to and find a frame or even find the parts to hang it on the wall.  All you have to do with these is put a nail in the wall and it is ready to hang.

They also make banners so make sure you check out their site!

Make sure you enter to win a free 8×10 canvas print of your own!

FTC-I received a free print in exchange for my review.  The opinions expressed are 100% my own.

Not This Time by Vicki Hinze

Book Review

Not This Time by Vicki Hinze was interesting book to read.  At times I got bogged down in all the details that she had in the book but other times I was glad that she had all the detail that she did.  I loved all of the characters & the setting of this book and it made me want to check out the first two books in the series and see what happened in them.  That being said I understood most of what was going on so you don’t have to read them in order  but if are wanting to read all the books in the series than I would for sure suggest that you read them in order.  This book is also fast paced which is nice because it keeps you reading even at the parts where there could be less details used.  If you love suspense novels than I would for sure recommend this book to you.

Not This Time by Vicki Hinze

About The Book

Small town scandal. International terrorist attack. Who among them is the traitor?
Sara and Beth have built a multi-million dollar business together, but their once solid friendship is now strained. Beth is leery of Sara’s husband, and when he is kidnapped, authorities consider Beth their prime suspect.
Then, their small town of Seagrove Village is rocked by an act of terrorism, and Beth doesn’t know who to trust. Someone she knows is linked to the attack, but who? Is there a connection to Crossroads Crisis Center? In the midst of the confusion and fear, Beth finds herself attracted to a man from her past. She knows she shouldn’t fall in love with him, but she can’t resist or even explain their bond. As her world unravels around her, she wonders, is it possible to be beyond redemption?

Changes Over The Last Year

Wow this past year has changed me in so many ways. I can’t even imagine where I would be if my life hadn’t changed that much.  I am going to write about the changes over the last year for me and some of the people in my life. All the changes has been so good for me and also for the people that are in my life.

It was this time last year that they let Misti go at work. I still remember the day they let her go like it was yesterday even though I still wish that is was just a bad dream and that I could wake up for it. I don’t know that it will ever be the same here without her being here. It is even harder to wrap my head around the fact that she has had a baby and is now a mother.

Also anyone who has followed my blog from the start will know that my daughters birthday is coming up and that always makes it a tough time of year for me. I am finding that this year is going to be harder than some of the past years have been. It is always hard to gauge how a year will be for me but I think this is going to be hard for me.

Well that was quite the tangent so lets get back to the post. Other than those things I am still pretty much blogging about the same things. I really haven’t changed what I blog about because I have always just blogged about my life and for the most part my life doesn’t change that much.

How has the past year been for you?
