The Big Five O - Giveaway!

Pin It
Ok, as promised, this little ole blog has hit 50+ followers and I believe I made a promise a bit ago...
So I've interrupted my little Christmas in May shopping trip I made to the Christmas Tree Shops today...and playing with all the bootie I've aquired today, to get the ball rolling!

I love these chairs,  they will be my inspiration for a project coming up for my beloved kitchen.  I didn't buy them,  I just bought 4 similar from a garage/moving sale which are waiting to be transformed!

Didn't buy these pillows either, didn't have an 'S'.  But I'll just have to make one of my own!


I'm extremely excited about the loot I did buy...I'll share that with you later!  Right now, we have more important things to discuss!

A Few weeks ago I wrote this:

A Mama's 2 Cents Worth...

This was my first EVER giveaway which was sponsored and ran by Rebecca over at My Girlish Whims.  Rebecca,  thanks for being such a sweetie!  Congrats on your engagement as well!



Don't let the fun end here!  Rebecca has yet another giveaway going on over there...go see!

ALSO..

I promised a bit back that when I hit 50 followers, I would be doing my very own little giveaway here to celebrate.  At this posting, I am currently at 49!  So stay tuned for those details which I am pretty sure will happen very very soon!

Thank YOU! to all of you who have taken a moment to comment and sent some luv over for Alexis and her dress!  I hope that I have responded to you all, if I haven't it's probably because you were a 'no reply' blogger.  So, I'll thank you now!  Every comment has been so very lovely and has brought me close to tears (happy tears)!  That little shortie has a special place in my heart...I'd move mountains for her!  Going to that dance was a huge...no, monumental step for her and our family!

Eventually, I would like to have at least 3-5 posts per week here on my blog ('cause I've got tons to do & show).  Right now, there's been alot going on and I haven't been able to accomplish this.  My live in Mother in Law is succumbing fast to the wonders of Alzheimer's Disease and has needed lots of my time and attention!  I have complete faith in the Lord that my free time will once again return!  Until then,  don't worry... I'm here and will try to at least keep some good stuff coming...it may be random, but it's coming!
