Thrive Moms Sweet Swap

I have been a blog follower for a few years now, and I have enjoyed being introduced to new ideas, foods, fashion tips, and lifestyles.  Since becoming a blogger myself, I've continued to explore other blogs, websites, instagram accounts, etc.  One such website is called Thrive Moms. 

The general concept is celebrating moms who are thriving in this hectic life, and it is centred in Christianity.  The words under their "Who we are" tab say:

Thrive is a ministry for moms to encourage and inspire you to do more than just survive motherhood. We believe God wants us to THRIVE and walk confidently in who He calls us to be as mothers.

I receive a newsletter each Monday morning with a devotional related back to being a mom.  I always love a new perspective on life, and it is a thoughtful piece of writing to start my week (by the way, does any one else feel like going back to work on Monday is a welcome "break"?).

When I saw the invitation to participate in the 2nd annual Sweet Swap, I jumped at the chance to try something new.  The concept is simple enough - sign up, get assigned a Sweet Swap Partner, pack up a box of goodies with a price limit of $25, and then ship it off in time for Christmas.  #thrivesweetswap

My Partner lives in Ontario, which is kind of neat, I thought I might be shipping something across the border.  I packed up my box this weekend and it is ready to mail.

Some candy

Tree Garland from Target

Homemade Peppermint Cookies

 

Of course some Arbonne samples!

And a little note with the recipe

 

I am excited to receive my package soon!
