With the New Year right around the corner and my 1 year blogging anniversary a few weeks after, I thought it would be a good thing to think about how I want to make my blog even better. 

The first thing that I thought about was my blog description "Family Life." Over the past year, I've been pretty private about my family's unique situation but I think there is something that could benefit others from it, so I want to start making it a weekly post. I have so many stories to tell about college life as a married family that I think you will enjoy. Right now the title I have in mind is "Making It Monday." That's the best way I can describe our situation... we're just making it!

Secondly, I want to do something like a freebies 101 series about ways to make the most out of all the great stuff out there that companies give away for free. Also, how to use social media to get some of these great goodies!

And the last thing I have on my mind is Swagbucks. I'm not sure how many of my readers are actually taking advantage of this great site and I feel like I'm doing you a disservice by not promoting it more. I earned over $100 in Amazon gift cards and several other prizes this year. I plan on providing tips on how to score points (or SB's) every week as well as listing some of the great special offers that help you get to your prize goal quicker! {Side note: I'm emptying my SB account and challenging myself to earn enough prizes to pay for next years Christmas!}

Other thoughts that I haven't fully finished thinking on include deal sites and couponing. Have any suggestions?  I'd love to hear them!
