TADA!!!!!.....MY FIRST EVER GIVE-A-WAY!!!!

Well ladies....and possibly gents.......here is my first official give-a-way!!!! I have thought long a hard about it...so its a little bit of everything about me all in one....so here it goes...



































okay wait...i forgot to tell you that it was Taryn's first day of kindergarten yesterday...totally thought I would cry but neither of us did...except Brockie....he was beside himself without her.....he kept asking when we get sissy? But all went well got all 5 daycare kids off to school and the three preschoolers picked up at 10:30. lunch, nap and picked up the 2 kindergartners at 3:20 and then 4 daycare kids gone by 4. And the other two gone by 5:00...so it was family time after that and Taryn couldn't talk fast enough to tell us all about her day... So here is a pic of her before her first day....

and here is one at the school





and here is her putting her supplies in her desk...this is where I almost teared up the second time...

and here is her at her desk telling me its okay...just go home :)


okay so back to the give-a-way....

We have a garage sale find of this sign there's no place like home...a bag of fresh dried lavender.....a grudged..cinnamon flag...my first 2 grungy candles i ever made...couple of weeks ago...a few vintage buttons from an auction....a bag of seeds....a rustic metal star...a small cinnamon bun candle...courtesy of Brock I didn't know he put that in there til after I took the pic....:) a old oatmeal bowl....a wooded ball......my first ever craft...a painted paint of ..Home of the Free. because of the brave.....and a tin of my first batch of homemade lip balm in sweet orange...... so any takers....please post a comment on this post to enter...one enter per person..unless.. you post on your blog...then you get 2 chances.....So Good Luck...... Also in the works I was thinking of hosting a recipe swap...please let me know if any ones interested!!! Love thy neighbor.... XOXO

Tammy has your giveaway posted so I thought I'd come over here and have a look-see. Very nice. I, too, did day care so I could be home with my children. That was years ago since I am now a grandma!
I also did the craft shows wit my homemade ornaments and miniatures, etc. I love painting and sewing and especially hand sewing. Your giveaway looks awesome. I am going to put you on my blogroll so I can keep up with your new school year and all the holiday fun. Thanks for throwing my name in the hat.
