Our Holiday Journey began with an idea to share about all 

things holiday.  Here's what the banner on the blog says

Welcome to Our Holiday Home Journey. A blog about all things Holiday and Home. Let's make everyday a Holiday. Here you'll find photo's. Lots and lots of photo's. Ideas and decorations. Stories. And just plan 'ole Holiday fun. Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. Christmas is a Blessed time of year. And I want to share the blessings with you. So join me and enjoy all the holidays while we wait for the Best holiday of all! It begins here . . .

I kind of had plans to write about the holidays.  About making 
everyday a holiday in our homes. 

And then something happened.  I came up with this Fabulous idea.
And the Fabulous party began.  The Fabulous party is over a year old now.

I began the party at Our Holiday Journey and then something happened one day.  I accidentally posted the linky here at 
My Journey Back. 
 I thought well maybe it was meant to be and so I left it and began posting the party on both blogs.  And made this button.  
It's supposed to look sparkly.  Do you think it does?

At about the same time I had the idea to choose feature posts
from the party.  And so I began choosing 2 each week and put
them on the side bar at Our Holiday Journey.

I also feature them here on my Happy Homemaker post.  
I write a post each week (now on Saturday) that I link with
Sandra at Family Corner.  Sandra provides the prompts.  I have a added a few prompts of my own to make my posts more personal to me and the blog(s).

Last January I did something different at Our Holiday Journey.
I ran a 12 month giveaway.  Each month I tallied links and the blogger that linked the most posts one a prize.  
The winner was Carol at Comfort Spring Station
Comfort Spring
Carol writes a delightful blog.  She shares about living in Florida.
She shares her beautiful gardens, her home and some wonderful
recipes.  I hope you'll go by and visit her soon.  Click here to 
visit.  
The Fabulous Party is supper simple to follow and link.  
I have intentionally made the party super easy to find (I hope).
The party goes from Sunday to Sunday.  You don't have to wonder when you can link.  Any day.  Any time.

Building a community here and at Our Holiday Journey is important to me.  I hope we'll become kind of a family.  

With all that said.  I have made linking at the party simple.  I am backtracking here but I didn't mention 'rules'.  There are non. 
Well there is one and it's important.  
Family Friendly
Actually there are two.  No Halloween.  I don't want to get into a discussion about Halloween.  Just to keep it safe and friendly for 
everyone I write a special Halloween post the week of Halloween to share the posts that I find that are not spooky or creepy and just fun.  

Our Holiday Journey and My Journey Back are both meant to Welcome you and to hopefully make you smile.  I hope you 
look forward to reading what crazy thing I just might be writing about.  Sometimes I write random posts on My Journey Back.  

And sometimes I get off track . . . like now.   I was going to share one more new thing I am planning.  I am planning on writing and sharing your  our posts about Holidays.    Kind of getting back to what I originally planned.  

I hope you'll become apart of our community and link your posts 
at The Fabulous Party

I have a whole list of parties that I link at.  Below this post you'll see the list.  If you have a party I would love for you to link at my party too!

I hope you've enjoyed visiting today.  Come back soon and let me know you came by!
