Guest Post – Two Men and a Mommy

Today I am so excited to introduce you to Lindsay! She has such a fantastic blog! If you are looking for some excellent tutorials to spruce up your blog, her blog is the place to go! Plus, the tutorials are super easy to follow and very detailed!! She is also new to Facebook so go give here a like and show her some love!! 

Hey y’all! I am Lindsay from Two Men and a Mommy. My blog is about being a mom of a six-year-old, wife to a traveling husband, and just about life in general. I am also a former blog designer and have done a lot of blog design tutorials so you can learn how to design your own blog.

Being the mom of a six-year-old is hard but I love it. He is going into first grade this year and I am both dreading and looking forward to that. This Summer we are spending our days at the water park and just having fun being together.

My husband is an engineer in the oilfield and travels a lot. So far he has been to Egypt, Trinidad, Paris, Africa, and spends a lot of time in Spain. I love that he gets to travel the world and am so proud of him for his hard work.

I am also the mommy to a five-year old Great Dane. I love her and feel so safe when the hubby travels because she is very protective.

Besides blogging I love scrapbooking, running, crafting, and reading. I am a big reader and am trying to review more books on my blog.

Oh, and I just started a Facebook Page for my blog and would love if you “liked” me : )

My favorite blog post is probably the one I wrote about my battle with anxiety so you might want to start there. Or if you are wanting to design your own blog or want to learn some blogging tricks you might want to check out my tutorial page. I not only teach you blog design but I also teach you how to make your own Twitter background, ETSY banner, and so much more.

Thanks to Katie for letting me take up some space on her blog and now I can’t wait to see y’all over at mine!

Thank you Lindsay for spending some time with us here at Little Becky Homecky! Head on over and give her a shout out! 

Don’t miss anything. Stay connected!

I might not be the next June Cleaver but I am a happy mama who finds joy among the chaos- that’s my superpower. Welcome to my Semi-Domesticated Life.

Sponsor Spotlight {Mamal Diane}

I am so excited to introduce you to Mamal Diane! I have enjoyed getting to know her so much!

Facebook | Pinterest | Twitter | Bloglovin’ | Hellocotton

On Mamal Diane, you can find DIY projects, Gardening tips, Freebies, and much more!

She has a link party every Monday called “The Gathering Spot” where you can link up your latest projects.

She also shares recipes on her blog…Seriously, Diane does it all!! And that’s exactly why I love her blog so much! I know that each day when I visit, I am going to find something new and exciting.

Some of my favorite recipes that I have found are:

Taco Seasoning

Now I am really cheap, and I love when I can make stuff on my own at home for cheaper than buying it at the store…and this is no exception. When I read the recipe I was pumped because I already had everything in my spice cupboard so I didn’t have to mess with going to the store. We actually made this earlier in the week for our tacos we had Thursday night and it was super delish!!

Zucchini & Squash

This looks so yummy! If the rain would ever let up over here, then we will definitely be able to start grilling again! And this is definitely on my list!!

Grilled Pineapple

Again with the grilling…is there anything better than grilling in the summer!?!? Shake your head no, because there definitely isn’t!

I know that you will love Diane’s blog just as much as I do! Go check her out and show her some love! You’re guaranteed to find some awesome goodies on her site!!
