When I first opened shop in January of 2010 I had absolutely no idea where this adventure would take me. Through the ups and downs (yes there have been some downs) I am so happy I dove in and embraced the opportunity.
I remember when I was in college our professor asked the students in one of our first classes what we wanted to be when we "grow up". I was 19 at the time and when my turn came I announced that I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom one day. I'm pretty sure there were a few surprised faces in that room because I was taking courses to become a business woman. That feeling remained and now 10 plus years later with four kids I still want this more than ever. Starting Prairie Blossom Boutique has not only afforded me the opportunity to be home with them but also made it possible to send them to the school of our choice.
Today I want to say thank you to you for making this a reality for me!
This giveaway is very simple! All you need to do is leave me a comment below to enter.
There will be two winners. One winner will win a gift certificate from Prairie Blossom. The other winner will receive a set of 12 mini Polaroid style images from Simply Rosie Photography. She has been an incredible support and does most of my photography for Prairie Blossom.
