Happy 2nd Blog Birthday To Me!

That’s it its official this little piece of the internet is celebrating its 2nd Birthday!

Over the last 2 years my blog catapulted me into a world in which I never knew existed with HTML coding, SEO and lets not discuss widgets and plugins.

Happy 2nd Blog Birthday To Me! The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseI have had the most amazing time, learning, discovering and building friendships with some amazing people, I have been to some amazing events and conferences and I have without a doubt been honoured and privileged to work on campaigns and ambassadorships with some truly amazing Brands and Companies.

Happy 2nd Blog Birthday To Me! The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseI have pushed myself and challenged myself mentally and physically this year when I took part in the amazing Team Honk Bloggers relay.

My thoughts and feelings enclosed in this site secured my blog (along with some amazing folks voting) a place as a finalist in the prestigious BiB’s (Brilliance in Blogging awards) back in June and although I didn’t win I was so totally blown away that my name was on that board … it will remain a moment in time that I will cherish forever.
Happy 2nd Blog Birthday To Me! The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseThis year has been packed to the rafters with new and exciting opportunities for my blog to grow, for which I will always be grateful.

So what is ahead for the coming 12 months?

I have no idea, but if its anything like the last 12 months than I know we are in for extremely action packed journey! 

To everyone  that has taken the time to pop over, read, send a tweet, leave a comment or has supported me in any other way …. from the bottom of my heart …

THANK YOU!

Over the next week in celebration I will be hosting some fantastic competitions from some of the amazing brands and companies that I have worked with last year, such as Maxi-Cosi, Vax, Homebase and Philips to name a few!
