Good Morning Peeps! I hope you all had a great weekend! We had two birthday parties at our home this weekend and they both went really well. I posted a few pics on my fb page including me leading the conga line. I will be back later this week to tell you all about the fun we had spray painting aprons at my oldest daughter’s party, my 2012 house goals and maybe a room update.
Today we welcome to The Blooming Blogger series Lisa from . I first “met” Lisa earlier this year through our blogs and I’ve enjoyed seeing her projects and home. She posts some very cool posts with architecture and inspiration from around the world, like and .

How do you balance blogging and home life? Any tips?
Over these past seven months I have been able to see a distinct pattern as far as when I am best able to focus on writing my posts without compromising anything else. I am learning to set aside some late nights (when kids are in bed) and/or very early morning and the occasional Sunday afternoon to type out basic ideas. I do also work on them a little when I have some spare time during the day. As long as one has good pictures and a basic idea for a post, the rest should fall into place. I do think about future posts constantly and when I have an idea I make a note of it to work on further so I do not forget. This has helped save time on occasion. But it is important not to allow blogging to consume your life because it easily could! Blog posts do not have to be lengthy as long as one has a good picture, something thought-provoking, attention-grabbing or topical, interesting and fun.
Do you have any New Years Resolutions?
Do you have one room or house goal you are for sure doing in 2012?
