raking up autumn & a GIVEaway!

Playing in a mountain of leaves while Collin rakes up Autumn.

I'm not used to getting ready for a baby this time of year. I enjoyed having my first darlings when it was warming up & the season was full of new life and a bright sky.
Needing warmer baby clothes and booties and hats. Maybe we should move to a warmer climate instead. That seems like a much more feasible option... ;)
We are starting off this snowy, cold Monday right with a giveaway... because we like to spoil you darling bloggers.

BIJOU MARKET: November 19-20th 10am-6pm at Old Southworth Hall Provo, Utah.
My sis-in-law, Emily, who is a fashion guru & has absolutely flawless taste throws a Handmade Market
twice a year... & I can't believe it's that time again!
Whether you are close enough to attend or wishing you lived in Utah--she is giving away 5 prizes!! Thanks Em!

  • Paperclip Studio - a bow headband of your choice.
  • Vintage Oddity "Seahorse Necklace" $17
  • Autumn Dame "Jester" shirt $22
  • 28th Street Photo & Gift - winner gets to choose a pair of stud earrings & a fine art Photography 8x10 print of their choice.
RSVP on Facebook: Hope to see you there...! Unless this baby comes before then. Which I doubt it.

Next up we have a Holiday themed package including my Dear Lizzy Christmas Card kit
from the daily-tempting CRAFTY STEALS!
Everyday a new item and at a killer cost
so now I'm hooked & have to check everyday to make sure I don't miss something.


Darling bows and hat accessories for your princess at PRIM COUTURE! You have to check it out.
PRIM COUTURE is offering a $50 go-nuts-and-buy-whatever-you'd-like certificate to their shop! How fun!

From the photo above clearly you see this last giveaway is for beautiful handstamped jewerly from THE RUSTED CHAIN. I love the new bow charm and the camera has always been one of my favorites.
Beki is giving away THREE $25 dollar gift certificates just click on her shop and choose your favorite piece. Also check out their blog.

Since there's one of my favorite holidays coming up: To be entered into this fabulous giveaway LEAVE A COMMENT with something you are grateful for this Thanksgiving season.

Jill Norwood said...

I am grateful for so many things this Thanksgiving season but the thing I am most grateful for is the presence of my husband who was diagnosed with a grade IV brain cancer at the end of July. I almost lost him during brain surgury but he pulled through and is now fighting the good fight to stay alive! I am so proud of him - he is my hero! I feel truly blessed to be able to spend the holidays with him this year when it could have turned out so differently. I pray that God's plan is for him to be with my son and I and our families for along time to come!

Happy Baby Elizabeth and family! There is no greater blessing than a new angel to love fresh from God's arms!

This time of year reminds me to be thankful for my voice because at this time 6 years ago, I was diagnosed and being treated for thyroid cancer. During surgery my left vocal cords were paralyzed and I was not able to speak. After lots of prayer and time healing my body, my right vocal cords learned to compensate for my left ones. I am able to speak, sing, and laugh. For that I will be forever grateful.

Being a live is great isn't it?

Brooke said...

I'm grateful for a wonderful husband. He has spent the last few weeks pursuing a new job and last night finally had to make the call to make the switch or stay where he is. The sheer amount of work (lists, budgets, etc.) that he put into deciding was quite admirable. He knows what month and year he would start to see the benefits of increased pay and now has a list of concerns to raise with his current boss. For the record it all added up to not be the best move, but I love him so much!

We are so thankful that this will be the last year we will be overseas for Christmas. We are an Air Force family stationed at Osan AB South Korea for the last 2 years. We have lived overseas for a total of 5 years of our 9 year marriage. It has made us so thankful for the country we live in and made us even more proud to be Americans. As Americans, I feel we can sometimes take for granted all the blessings and freedoms we actually have. Having lived in Germany and Korea now, we will never forget how thankful we are for being American!!! God bless the USA!!!

I am so thankful that my mom has come out of the darkness and is in such a better place. I'm thankful that even though it's been an extremely (personally) tough year for our family, we are grateful for our blessings and can see those clearly! The glass is definitely half full.

Kit said...

So grateful that 50 + years of life on this planet have taught me that God is truly a "heavenly" Father --a Father who loves me and has my best growth as His goal for me, and so all life's experiences (even painful ones, like my divorce, like sickness, like economic challenges) are set up for my learning and (eventual) blessing . . . it's what helps me be happy almost all the time!
