That my blog posts are diminishing. Do not worry, all the older posts can be found at my new site www.3boysandadog.com I wanted to delete posts from this site that are already on that site as I do not want to get punished by Google for duplicate content.

Starting tomorrow, I will be posting on the new site. So, now is the time to get over there and sign up for the RSS or email feed. You don’t want to miss anything, trust me!

DAY #30 ROXIO PhotoShow Review & Giveaway

September 29, 2009 By Kelli 5 Comments

THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED!

Welcome to DAY NUMBER THIRTY of the Back 2 School Blog Bash 2009 – 30 Days of Giveaways, at 3 Boys & a Dog!

**REMEMBER, ALL BASH CONTESTS END AT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT CST! ** Actually, they will be ending as quickly as I can shut them down in the morning. I am not staying up until midnight. LOL! Anyway, be sure you go back and get your name in the hat for any contests you missed. Also, keep your eyes peeled for an updated link post later today!

Add your photos, personalize, share! How easy is that? Plus, it is only 39.99 for an entire year! That ain’t all, folks.

There’s a world of difference between a plain old “slideshow” and a PhotoShow! With just a click or two, the all new PhotoShow maker lets you add your choice of hundreds of music tracks, over 150 beautiful one-click styles, plus cool animated graphics and stickers. Add one of your own MP3s to your PhotoShow and give it the soundtrack you really want.

I had a really good time putting in the pictures from my husband’s beauty pageant. Yes, I know it sounds funny. Wait until you see it! (be aware it has music, don’t want it blaring out of your speakers)

I am looking for a Regular Contributor!

September 29, 2009 By Kelli 1 Comment

OK girls, I am looking for a bit of help on my new blog. This is NOT a paying position… below I will note what it entails and what you get out of it.

What I get out of it:

1. Fresh content from another perspective

2. A helper to handle things if I am gone.

What I would expect from you:

1. At least one random post weekly. (could be a review, an info post, a random musings, etc)

2. A weekly segment totally by YOU. For example: maybe you would like to take over Fave Fridays (I seem to be falling back on it) or you have an idea that you would love to do like Tip Tuesday… whatever. LOL! Your regular weekly post would go on at the same day and time once a week. So, if you were going to be out of town one week, you would just pre-schedule the post.

3. Anything else I may think of later – LOL!

What you get out of it:

1. You will be listed as a regular contributor on my site with a link to your weekly segment!

2. You will get your own blurb on the “about me” page with a link to your own blog (if you have one).

3. When I receive an email from someone asking me to review their product and I am too full or it doesn’t fit my needs, you will be given the option of reviewing it!

4. Soon as I figure out how to do it, you will have your own 3boysandadog email address!

If this is something you will be interested in, please email me answering the following:

1. Why do you want to contribute on 3 Boys & a Dog?

2. What makes you different from the other applicants?

3. Tell me about you. Do you have a blog? Do you write anywhere else? Kids? Husband? Job? Talk to me!

4. What topic would you be interested in posting about? (examples: freebies, crafts, organization, beauty, fashion) and what makes you “qualified” for that topic?

Please take your time responding! I will not choose anyone until the end of the week. Your responses will help me determine your writing ability (grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc). Obviously, I am not a writer but I try to keep my errors to the minimum and expect the same out of a contributor.

3 Boys & a Dog is my baby and with the move, I am going to be spending many hours trying to get my readership and links back up to what I have now. I want to know that I have someone helping me keep up with posts.
