Cortney of Living & Loving in California is celebrating her 100th Blog Post this month with a special giveaway. Of course I wanted to share this with everyone BUT more importantly I wanted to tell you about how proud I am of her. Cortney...who for those of you who do not know...is also my niece ;) However, I'm not just proud because she is my niece...I am proud as a peacock...because she is an accomplished young woman who has written more than 100 posts in 7 months (big...don't you think ;) while working full time as a Special Education teacher. Newly married (they just celebrated their 1st Anniversary ;) Cortney brings a fresh outlook to marriage and makes us all laugh at her antics in the classroom and at home. I've gathered a few of my favorite posts and created a photo mosaic from these posts to share with you all for Mosaic Monday.
Following is a list of the the blog posts as they appear in the Mosaic, (starting from the top, left corner)but feel free to hop around by the dates that I've posted next to the links in case your are an ORDERLY type of person...lol

So tell me...which posts did you enjoy the most? Which one made you laugh the hardest? Hope you all enjoy reading them as much as I do ;) Now don't be shy...leave a comment and become a follower and be sure to get in on her Giveaway and don't forget to tell her...that her Aunt Bobbi sent you...ya hear!
I hate to admit it but the Tinkle, Tinkle in the car was my favorite. My husband likes to leave super early in the morning when we're heading to NC or Florida (snowbirds, you know) and will stop but I always feel intimidated so I hold it. Then I tell him to stop cause I really have to go and there is no more rest stops in sight. He's not his sweetest when I do that...lol.... I love Cortney and her blog.

I'm blushing and maybe a little teary eye'd too! Thank you so much for writing this and sharing. You were the lady that inspired me to start blogging in the first place! I had a good giggle when I saw the title of this post! I know I didn't write it long ago, but I had kind of forgotten about my little Tinkle, Tinkle In the Car post! You did pick some good ones, they are favorites of mine too!
Thank you again! Oh-and I can't wait until I can pick up my copy of your first Published piece in Clothe, Paper, Scissors! I will be checking every few days until it's in my hands!
Love Ya!
