Friendly Friday: January 14th

Welcome to Friendly Friday!

Remember, YOU can host the link list on your blog, too! Just click "Get the code here..." at the bottom of the list. The code is different every week, so be sure to get the new code when hosting Friendly Friday on your blog. Hosting the list is a great way to get even more traffic to your blog and make Friendly Friday more beneficial for everyone.

Thanks for joining the Friendly Friday celebration hosted by Xenia at Thanks, Mail Carrier, Christi at Frugal Novice and Charla at Healthy Home Blog! We invite you to join us every Friday to make more friends in blogville, get more blog followers and follow other great blogs out there.

To join in the Friendly Friday celebration, include your family-friendly link in our list, follow the hostesses in the first 3 spots and then start blog hopping! Visit other blogs on the list and comment to give them some blog love. Then take a minute to follow them through Google Friend Connect - this is a good way to keep up with other blogs, but also lets us show support to each other! Please DO NOT list your giveaways here, links must be to either your homepage or your Friday posting with your blog title. All others will be deleted.

When people comment on your blog and let you know they're a part of Friendly Friday, return the favor and follow them back. This way everyone gets traffic and followers out of participating, and it's a win-win situation. We would love for you to also grab our Friendly Friday button and post it on your blog and/or in a post - the more bloggers that find out about Friendly Friday and participate, the better!

Spotlight on Friendly Friday Followers!

We love your participation and want to show it! In addition to gaining followers, each week we'll select three blogs at random and will feature links and a write-up for those blogs in the content of next week's Friendly Friday post. There are so many seriously wonderful blogs out there, and this will be a great way to highlight some of those each week. Say hello to the lucky chosen 3 for this week (and feel free to stop by and give them a little extra love):

Natalie, a brunette, shares about her life and her "blonde moments" on her blog Blonde at Heart. Her writing is so fun to read! You'll find posts about her husband and her nephews (and shopping - who doesn't like reading about that?). She recently turned 29, so stop by and wish her a belated birthday!

Jen @ My Secret Home is a 23 year old stay-at-home-mom of 1 little guy, who is the love of her life! She loves trying out new products, going to restaurants, going for walks, traveling & shopping. She is a *green* mommy and through her blog hopes to provides families with eco-friendly product suggestions. You'll find a lot of great giveaways on this blog!

At Mom to 2 Posh Little Divas you can read all about this blogger's two sweet daughters. She shares funny stories about the things they say, provides activity ideas that you can try with your own children, and really lets you feel like you're a part of her adorable family!

Now that you know about these 3 wonderful blogs, it's time for you to join in! Add your family-friendly link below and we'll see you back here every Friday! And don't forget, you can grab the code to share the link list on your blog, too.

All three hostesses appreciate followers through Google Friend Connect AND Twitter and we'll follow you back - just leave a comment with your URL and/or Twitter username. Have a great weekend, everyone!

I was super surprised to have people stopping by my blog to tell me congrats on being featured. I have to admit I was confused at first (guess that isn't a surprise with the whole blonde blog thing...), but I am so excited! :) Thank you so much! What a great surprise and a wonderful way to end my week! :)
