Two years ago from today I wrote my very first post as Chrissy in America. I had no idea what I was getting myself into and how big of an impact it would have on my life! I am  proud of myself for making it all the way here and I cannot even begin to tell you how much I have gained from blogging.

I bet you would all agree with me, if I told you that blogging has enriched my life in ways I never thought possible and that is has brought so many wonderful people friends into my life I couldn't imagine not being part of it anymore. Blogging has allowed me to make friends all over the world! People I NEVER would have known without!

Thank you to everyone who has ever been over here, looked around, maybe left a comment or even emailed me. Thank you to all those "silent" visitors who come over quietly, stay awhile and then leave again - you are always more than welcome over here at Whimsical Poppysmic!

Thank you to all those wonderful friends - and you know exactly who you are -  that stop by on a regular basis, who support me and really know me, who leave wonderful words of encouragement when I so need them, who give me hope when I feel lost, who cheer me up when I am sad and who laugh with me when I am happy! You cannot imagine how much each and everyone of you means to me!

I truly am grateful for all of you! 
Thank you - danke - you are the best!

2 years ago from today I started this journey with blog post no. 1.
This is blog post no. 853 and I would love to "celebrate" with you!

I am giving 2 of you the chance to win one of my 
knitted cable headbands / earwarmers



(I will be adding a few German goodies for the winners.)

And there is only one thing I ask of you -
 please leave a comment with the color you would choose.

We will be celebrating until Monday, September 10th and I will pick 2 lucky winners via random.org.

Good luck and THANK YOU!!

Hugs,

Happy 2 years! It goes by SO fast. I would go with black because I'm a total snooze fest but it matches everything in my closet. Or white because that's not *as* boring as black ;)

Color: Blue. Navy or antique teal. :)
