This is a great way for me to learn more about my bloggy friends and to help promote their blog. So, once you're read their fantastic post, stop by their blog and leave them a note. Tell 'em you stopped by from Dawn's Disaster :) If you'd like to be a part of my Traveling Tuesdays, give me a holler or stop by my contact page.

Hi, I’m
Tammy from Yours and Mine ARE Ours and I
am super, super excited to be here! Thank you Dawn for inviting me.
Just a
little about me. My husband and I have been married for seven
years. We have six children ranging in age from 25 to 10; five boys and
one daughter. We have also been blessed with two additional daughters who
married our sons. Throw in a six year old granddaughter and a nine month
old grandson and you can imagine our house is often quite busy! We
wouldn’t have it any other way. Sometimes i forget but I truly am
blessed! Oh yes and we can’t forget Bella (our cat) and Max (our Olde English
Bulldog)!
We live
in Ohio, home of the Ohio State Buckeyes! Can you believe that my husband and
one of our sons are Michigan Fans? Crazy! I think they just like to be
different.
I have
learned a lot about saving money over the years whether it be by using coupons,
cooking from scratch, going to yard sales or DIY. I love sharing family
and budget friendly meals, ideas, DIY and garden tips on my blog. I hope
you’ll come visit me. Oh yes AND I’m a Pinterest addict
so feel free to join me there also!
I began
blogging in October of 2012 so my blog is fairly new. But don’t let that
fool you! There’s a lot of great information there already. Some of
the things you can find there? There’s a three part series on
information about working from home, each Wednesday is a new crockpot meal and
there’s a great DIY on a chalkboard / storyboard. Coming up in the next
month or so will be DIY raised garden beds, more recipes (did I mention I love
to cook?), homemade laundry soap that works! and several product as well as
children's book reviews.
I bet
you thought I was going to just keep talking about myself didn’t you? Well,
guess what?? I have a recipe to share with you before I go! I hope
you love it. This is one of mine and my husbands favorites and we just
had it again today so I have to share so you can see for yourself just how
fabulous it is! YUM!
