Happy Birthday-Blogiversary To Me!
Let me hear some noise! Blow the horns, shout out loud, let’s get ready to PAARRRTTTYYYY!
Could there be a more exciting week? I think not! On this date one year ago, Pretty Handy Girl was born. I wrote my first blog post and since then y’all have followed me through the beautiful and the ugly.
But, wait, there’s more! On Thursday, 40 years ago, I was born!
I couldn’t be more excited to celebrate my 40th birthday with you and you and you – all 3,350 of you (and counting!)
In honor of this memorable week, I will have a different giveaway for each day. In no particular order, here are some of the gifts I have for you (thanks to some wonderful companies who donated them.)
Janimie Necklace of Your Choice
Dremel Trio
A Selection of All Things Pretty Handy Girl (Sorry, I will not be included in the box.)
KILZ Primer
Gift Certificate to spend at Leen the Graphics Queen
A Selection of Irwin Tools
AND MORE!!!
So, be sure to stop by EVERY day this week to see what you could win! Who’s with me now? Can I get a woot woot!
I leave you with a photo compilation of me over the past 40 years. Enjoy!
P.s. Get a load of my wings and my hot prom date! No funny comments, that was me and Pretty Handsome Guy in the 80’s. {Baahahaha. LOL}
The happiest of birthdays to you! You haven’t aged a bit! Neither has Pretty Handsome Guy! Bahahaha! I like his current ‘do, though! The ’80’s were tragic for all of us!
Avec du retard, très bon Anniversaire ! 40 ans, c’est le bel âge !

happy birthday.
Happy birthday / blogiversary! You sure have accomplished a lot in just one year of blogging!
Those prizes look like some great ones… although I must say that photo of the couple taking “you” out of the box is a wee bit creepy. 🙂
Congrats again on the milestones!
P.S. I think that photo of you and your hubby is so cute! Hey that was stylish back then! And the fact that you married your high school sweetheart.. so romantic! 🙂
Congrats, one year down and many more to come…I hope! Happy Birthday, and what a cool baby photo that is! I love the prom photo too, the hair cracks me up. 🙂
Congratulations, Brittany! You’ve accomplished so much with your blog in just one short year! And that’s no surprise, really–you’re so smart, so talented AND so kind! I am really happy for you.
And happy birthday, too! I AM surprised that you’ll be 40–you look so young! Of course, 40 is very young–VERY young!!–but I would have guessed you were even younger. So whatever you’re doing to take care of yourself, I’d say you’re doing a great job. Many happy returns! 🙂
Congratulations! One year of insanity!(jk!) That’s a huge accomplisment. So glad you decided to blog for the world:)
Congrats on both counts! You’ve created quite an impressive blog in a year’s time.
Happy Birthday & a successful year of blogging here’s to wishing you many more!
Happy Birthday and Happy Blogiversary Brittany!!! Love the photos – so fun!
Happy blog and natural birthday.40 is good!
Just checked out your page for the first time. Liked what I saw.
Congratulations! Enjoyed the photos, they made me smile (well, and laugh a little, too), because I have a daughter who turned the Big 40 in May. We have some similar pics of her prom “do,” attire & date!
BIG SHOUT OUT TO YOU! Happy Birthday & Happy Blogiversary! Thank you for sharing so much with us all. I really enjoy your blog. The hair styles may have changed (80’s = big hair ha ha), but you haven’t aged. Looking good!
Happy Blog Birthday to you! I always enjoy reading your posts:)
