i'm late....i'm late....again!

yes, it's true. friday's giveaway is coming to you on saturday...again :/ 

so,in honor of my lateness, this weeks giveaway will be...

a set of 3 tags inspired by my favorite fairytale, alice in wonderland! of course, i can totally identify with the white rabbit in that i always seem to be running late! you can find more alice in wonderland inspired goodies here in my etsy store.

and just for giggles, i had to post this priceless picture of my dear hubby, messing around with his youth group boys...

i had to pull it off of facebook so it is a bit small, but you get the idea... we like to call him macho nacho, the luchador :D

have a safe and fun halloween and see ya' back here next week...i will post the giveaway winner at 10am on monday morning. i will also be posting some new things around wednesdayish...so check back!

~friday giveaway~

today's giveaway is...

 

a set of 5 tags. use them as placecards for thanksgiving or to write down what you're thankful for about each guest. the winner can choose to have these with or without the "thankful", if they would like to use them as placecards.

here's how to enter:

1. leave a comment, telling me one thing you are thankful for, that you normally take for granted. {you will understand why when you read on}

2. that's it! i will have big daddy choose a winner at 9:45am, tomorrow morning. i will post the winner at 10am.

i just finished reading this book last night. i stayed up until 2am reading!

it is amazing the things i take for granted everyday that were taken away from these amazing survivors with so little thought....my child, for instance!!! i cannot imagine my child being taken from my arms and thrown to the ground, to their death, like a piece of trash, insignificant and worthless. i am in a puddle of my own tears as i type. this story reminded me of how blessed i am to live freely and able to walk the streets without worrying about being suddenly snatched away or having my children taken for no reason. these are basic freedoms that everyone should have, 
 yet it amazes me that there are still places in this world where those
 freedoms are not given.

no more sad stuff!!!

ok, now for some new creations!

here's what i have been working on ...

 

i will be posting them on etsy today. with alice in wonderland being so popular right now, these stir sticks and food picks are great for parties.

alrighty then, i think that does it for today...enter the giveaway and tell your friends!

blessings, hugs and sparkly things to you all!

and the winner is......

as picked from my hat by my own mr. handsom, big daddy j :)

JES, i will let BLINGNETS know that you are the winner and get you 2 hooked up so she can 

mail out your prize!

thanks to all of you who participated. i will be doing a giveaway every friday until further notice...so pass the word on! the winners will be chosen every saturday morning at 9:45am.

now, this is what i have planned for today...

big daddy helped me get into the attic to pull out the fall decorations! yay! i have to admit, i am not a big fan of halloween, but i love pumpkins and i love to decorate, so....this year, i think i am going all black and white for halloween. maybe a little green in there too.  spray paint and glitter, here i come! of course photos will follow when i am done!

and later...a house full of teenagers for youth group! can you believe it? teenagers who come to talk about God....on a saturday night...when they could be doing something else....way rad!

hope your weekend is full of blessings and joy...and of course sparkly things!
