Made in Idaho Giveaway: $400 Value!

Have the words "it's a small world" ever come out of your mouth? Maybe when you see someone you know in a place thats far away from home; or when you meet someone who had been a stranger, but knows someone you know too? Growing up and living in Idaho means I can certainly say "It's a small world!" A small town to be sure :) But the crazy thing is... through small towns around Idaho, the whole world is being touched! Anyone could say the same about their home state in this day in age- it really is a small world! In fact, did you know that several of your favorite online businesses and bloggers are from right here- Idaho?! Generally people think of potatoes or Napoleon Dynamite when they think of us, but there's a lot of talent packed into our great state! To prove it, I've teamed up again with some amazing Idaho bloggers to host a BIG giveaway- this time to celebrate just how great Idaho really is!

Moms Make the World Go Round

Happy Mothers Day! I can't let today pass without gushing a bit about my own Mom and also making sure any readers that are Mothers who might stop by today know how amazing YOU are! I have been blessed with an amazing, selfless Mom that largely made, and still makes, me who I am.. I will forever want to be her one day!

She gave me as good of roots as it is possible to have

and encourages me to spread my wings in ways that will improve our life.

I love you, Mom!

Being a Mom is trying, but it is wonderful!

There is no better job or place to be, in my opinion :)

Moms make the world go round, no question!

Wishing a joyous, memorable day and week to you all!

Color in Motion 5K

So it goes without saying that I really shouldn't plan on running a 5K anytime soon! :P

Or maybe that I'd be pretty much incapable of running a 5K anytime soon- ha! But here's the thing... I keep hearing about this awesome Color in Motion race going on soon here in eastern Idaho. Quite awhile ago, my friend Monica told me she's got a whole group together, and I know my youngest sister will be in the thick of it too. And I think it looks so fun! I'd be walking way more than running and probably cross the finish line stinkin' last, but I'm intrigued enough that when I got an email from Amanda inquiring if she could guest post about Color in Motion here at Capital B, I was excited! So, even though I'm no fitness blogger, I think this post is one you'll enjoy and maybe be motivated by to join in on something awesome. :) And here's Amanda...

Hey guys! This is Amanda from Color in Motion 5k. I am so excited to tell you about one of the most fun events of the year, the Color in Motion 5K race. I also want to offer Sky’s readers an awesome deal for the Color in Motion 5K fun run on July 6 in Rexburg.

Boys (still) Rule

Have I used that post title a thousand times already? Pretty much.

So this makes 1,001...

because, for real, boys rule :)

They rule this place at least!
