Mark is off today and since it’s Memorial Day weekend I’m not going to post a giveaway today.
We’ll probably do some of this

and a little of this
and hopefully catch some of these.
We’ve planned two cookouts with friends and we’ll probably sneak in one with just our family. Maybe the kids will even talk us into building a fire and roasting marshmallows for S’mores.
Beginning next week, each Friday I’ll tell you about a product that our family enjoys and each company will be sponsoring a giveaway so that you’ll have an opportunity to win and try them for yourself.

ERGO Baby Carrier
Moby Wrap
(These are my two favorite baby carriers, they enable me to wear our babies in all circumstances, including wearing a 2 year old while 8 months pregnant. )
Sonlight
Baby Bond – a nursing cover that covers you and not your baby.
Buckhead Betties - Fun bags and accessories
In addition Nature’s Valley, Sam’s Club, Betty Crocker and Pillsbury will all be offering fun giveaway packs for Raising Olives readers.
Congratulations to our three giveaway winners from this week:
Debi @ Above and Beyond is the winner of the Grill Daddy.
Lisa @ Mom’s Misc. Adventures and Stephanie both win their choice of a 2 year subscription to Quarter Mile Math or the level of their choice on CD.
Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday weekend!

Love the pictures of your kiddos having fun in the water! Where do you get your girls’ modest swimsuits? I have been looking for a while and am having a hard time finding some I can afford for all of my daughters. Thank you for your wonderful, encouraging, Christ honoring blog!
