Cuteness and a Giveaway

Yay !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am doing great...really I am
The finger is coming right along
Thanks to all of your for your concern and advice for future use of my sewing machine
I do promise to be more careful

Our after-school project for today..Mr. Froggie Frog
We're gonna grow this froggie a nice head of hair
I think these creatures with the grass growing out the top are so cute...and fun to watch
and they are fun to do together....you can pick up your at Hobby Lobby

A little Easter treat from Mom for Chloe and I
I love chicks and bunnies

My darling wormie pin arrived from Creative Paper Trail
I have been oooh-ing and ahhh-ing over her pins for a while and I had to get me one
just look how cute he is.
Gonna be so cute on one of my tote bags.

Love to read ??
I am giving away my copy of The Secret Life Of Bees
I am always at a loss for what to do with a book when I am finished with it
I just don't like to collect novels...and you don't get too much for them on ebay
Makes me sick to take a perfect book to a second hand shop when I can share it with a friend.
So...I am going to give it away to one lucky bloggie friend.
To win...leave a comment on this post of your favorite book
To get an extra entry...blog or twitter about this giveaway and link it back here in the comments.
I will pick a winner on Sunday.
Good Luck
have a happy day
Pin It!

I love your towels!!! they are so cute.

On to the give away,,, My favorite book that I have read recently is "these is my words". I do like the twilight series too, but don't get a lot of time to read lately. I have wanted to read the secret life of bees for a while.

again, I love your stuff!

Me, me, I love to read. I'm actually still trying to read the Twilight saga. I only get time to read before going to sleep so it takes me awhile. But I would love to read this book!

Tina said...

I haven't read this book yet. My favorite recently were the Twilight Series (don't tell anyone!). :)

My favorite book is one that I recently read and would encourage anyone to pick this book up for around $10.....THE SHACK! It was one that I could not put down!

I love your sweet blog (hope your finger is better)- and your "fashionista challenged model" --soooo cute!
I love to read. I have been wanting to read this one in particular, as i twas written by the author who totally helped me with the Goddess with her book "The Dissident Daughter"- had me crying on the DC metro!

Kudos again for such a sweet blog!

Couple things - couldn't comment on the sewing machine vs finger incident....freaked me out a little. Glad you are doing better. I would die to have a Hobby Lobby. The frog is adorable. I got my birdies and I just love them. Can wait to put them to good use!!! Thanks. I too loved The Secret Life of Bees!

Trish said...

Sweet!! Coincidently, I was just thinking I'd like to read this book:) I have to tell ya, after reading your tale, I've been extra careful sewing these days!! ;)

I found you through your etsy store. I think this is the first time I have checked your blog.
Sorry to read about your accident with the sewing machine. Glad you decided to go get a shot and have your finger checked. I heard a while back a girlfriend I went to high school with (actual her mother) passed away from lock jaw. She stepped on a piece of metal and hadn't had a shot for a long time. Didn't think anything of it and lost her life because of it. Once again glad you choose to have it attended to.
By the way what is behind your little worm pin? It looks like a mini album. I love minis!
I enjoy reading books by Stormie Omartian-all of her books are on prayer. They have changed my prayer life.
Congrats to whoever gets the copy of the book!

I love Jane Eyre. I am reading it AGAIN because I just can't get enough. I am the opposite with my books. I love to collect them. they are like old friends. I re-visit them often.
Thanks for the chance to win!

Stiff -The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers
by Mary Roach
I loved her humor, I am in healthcare so I find her writing interesting. Read it! (if your not squeamish)

I am reading the SHACK right now and have recently read the Twilight series which I loved. I have to honestly say my favorite thing to read is a magazine though...I just can't find the time to read a book often enough! :-) I would love to read this one though. I can't wait to see the movie.
