Are y'all ready for a little giveaway? As you may know, I recently hit 200 followers (a number that has now grown to 219...but better late than never, right?). To celebrate, I'm giving away two lovely things - which means there will be two winners!
Mandy from TheLightFantastic has generously donated any four (4) 5x5 prints of the winner's choice.

(prints not limited to ones shown in above photo)
Mandy's photos are so sweet and whimsy - I adore them. This is an opportunity you're not going to want to miss!
Also, Mandy is having a giveaway to celebrate her one year anniversary on Etsy! Head on over to her blog to find out more.
But the fun doesn't stop here. No, Sara from Twillypop has kindly offered to give one of her Genevieve necklaces in a color of the winner's choice!

One of these necklaces would be the perfect accessory to any outfit. They're so colorful and fun...a perfect reminder of summer even when summer's over.
Want to win one of these? Thought so.

ReplyDeleteWell today was an unusual day for me.
ReplyDeleteA typical day starts with rain forest noises (my alarm setting) at 6:00 am. Then comes my normal routine: shower, hair, make-up, maybe breakfast-depends on how I'm doing on time. I head out the door at 7:00 am, make a quick stop at the gas station and get some coffee. Then I am ready to start my trek to work... my hour trek. I get to work and walk into my office, turn on the light and say hi to Mr. McKenzie (who is right next door to me). At 8:30 is prayer meeting which last until 9:00am. I get as many tasks in as I can before lunch, because after lunch I am very sleepy. 12:30 is my normal lunch time. Most of the time I go to Wendy's and order a side Cesar salad, 5-piece chicken nuggets (to tear-up and put in my salad of course), and large unsweetened tea. The Wendy's in the town of my work is the best Wendy's around. This Wendy's has a bucket of lemon slices on the counter; this is extra fun because I always load my tea with lemons. I think that soon the management will see me coming and hide the lemons until I leave lol! I take my lunch back to the warehouse and sit on a picnic table with Caroline, Chip, and someone else. Caroline and I like to talk about politics... well, Caroline mostly-I listen...btw, Caroline thinks that my mom looks like Sarah Palin. Chip likes to talk about blowing things up (just in his back yard of course)- He is certainly a charactor! he is a firecracker! Lunch is the best part of the day because 1) I love Wendy's, 2) I love Tea, 3) my work is more than half done, 4) I enjoy the characters, and 5) just because (I only added a 5th one because I don't like even numbers).
Okay.. so I said all that for no reason at all.
Like i started with... today is an unusually day. For i am on Vacation. I woke up at 10:00 am (without the rain forest in my bedroom), and nibbled on M&M's and goldfish crakers while I got myself ready. Right now, it is lunch time, but I am not hungry.
I'd like to enter!
