Family Fun Friday has been a long-running Link-Up Party that I’ve enjoyed doing for years.

Things have taken a new direction and the party itself will now move to once a month. The party link up will be available every day all month long and I will pull from links to create roundups, highlights, and features for the nearly 30,000 subscribers of HappyandBlessedHome.com. If you would like to connect more often, please PM me on Facebook. I plan to put together a round-up database, some group boards on Pinterest, and other means for staying connected with the bloggers I’ve been connecting with for years. Here is where you can reach me.

This post, on 12/29/2017, was the last of the weekly Family Fun Friday Posts. Now, it will be on the last Friday of each month. At least for the year 2018. If readers and bloggers request that I bring it back for a weekly publication, I may do so at a later date.

Please continue to link up, and I’ll share your fabulous posts with the readers of this awesome community!
**********

With 2018 almost here many of us would like to improve our organization, and maybe lose a little Christmas weight, but it is also a great time to consider how we want our year to look. We may not have control of everything, but we can certainly choose to enjoy each moment and choose to move forward with our goals each and every day.

This week our featured bloggers will teach us: How to Help Kids Set Smart Goals (printables included); My 5 Simple Steps to Your Best Year Ever, and there are some wonderful tools to help with organizing here so be sure to check out Kimberlee’s post.

Additionally, Kimberlee also describes her experience with: How Choosing a Word of the Year has Transformed [her] Life. Her blog is inspirational to the core and will encourage you to begin your own journey as you read about her experience (I am so eager to begin myself).

With football playoffs and a Super Bowl around the corner, we must throw out a few football recipes! Finger foods and football are like peanut butter with jelly–they just belong together! Grape Jelly Barbeque Meatballs would be an awesome choice for your game day routine this playoff season. Also, a quick 30 Minute Chili Recipe would be an easy and delicious take-with-you meal for any tailgate party. Lastly, who doesn’t like a little tortilla slathered in pesto? These Pesto Tortilla Pinwheels look so tasty, check out all that we have this week at Family Fun Friday.
