Amy Knapp has generously donated a copy of her Family Organizer for TWO of my readers! Please read through this post for the complete details on this giveaway!
Planning and organizing are two things that I really enjoy. Sometimes that means making up my own forms and charts and other times I find a product that I just LOVE and use it year after year. Amy Knapp's Family Organizer is one of those products.
I stumbled across one of her planners over five years ago and have been using it ever since! I've even kept my planners to refer to for meal plans and remembering dates because I use them that much. The organizer actually runs for 18 months {from July of one year til December of the following year} so you have plenty of calendar space to write down upcoming plans. When June rolls around, I always look forward to ordering the newest edition!
Here is a shot of what the Family Organizer looks like open:
I know you can't read all the little print, so I'll tell you some of my favorite feature from this planner:
- Grocery list - the left side of the book that is shaded actually has a perforated edge so that you can fold it and tear it off and bring it to the store with you
- To Do List - great little area for notes. Sadly I need more room because my lists have lists.
- Week at a Glance - there is a month-at-a-glance also, but this one gives space to write appointments/plans for each day
- Meal planning - next to each day of the week there is a spot (in the right shaded area) to write down what you have planned as a meal for that day of the week.

The Family Organizer {$14.99} is available in several different options, including a Christian version, one for expectant moms, and there are also other formats available other than spiral-bound. Because I use mine and haul it around with me, I also bought a nylon cover for it several years ago and highly recommend that too!
Recently, Amy Knapp has also introduced a digital organizer ~ and has some great deals to go along with that version {including a print copy of the planner}.

here is my entry for "what caught my eye at her site"
she said to look for her at Barnes and Noble rather than ordering from her site to save us money on shipping...that is one truly money saving mom, directing her readers to other sources to save them money...very very kind of her!

By For the Love of Naps - Sarah, At January 18, 2010 at 7:53 AM
I used this planner a year ago for most of the year. I am addicted to planners. I would love the basic Family Organizer again! Feeling lucky!
By For the Love of Naps - Sarah, At January 18, 2010 at 7:55 AM
I'd get the regular family planner one (which is what I typcially buy each year and I bought something else and I hate it). So winning would be great!
By Joesette, At January 18, 2010 at 8:07 AM
Those animal craft kits look like they'd be lots of fun! I didn't know she carried those!
By Joesette, At January 18, 2010 at 8:08 AM
I would buy the family planner! I have used this in the past and loved it. However, I couldn't find any locally and needed one.. so I unfortunately haven't been using one for the past year and I can def. tell!!

I'd probably buy the spiral bound family organizer. I like the 7-hole punched one, but I think it's bigger than the binder I have.
Thanks for the chance to win. I love planners!
