Need some holiday dough?

Here is a giveaway for a $500.00 gift card to Wal-mart! Be sure to go over and check it out!

And the winners are....

Hubs just drew the names out of a hat - and the winners of my little contest are:

Brie is the winner of the Kari Jobe CD

and

Monica is the winner of the Words for Moms booklet

Congratulations ladies - your goodies will be on their way soon! :)

Thank you Mr. Postman! - And guess what? He may bring a package your way....

I have received some very fun things in the mail recently! I was so excited when I won a giveaway from Rachel's blog! Her package was filled with so many fun things - she wished that it would be like Christmas in June for me - and it was! I especially like the Mom's Ultimate Family Organizer - as it's come at the perfect time because I am trying to get lots of little details in order before Baby Brother comes. There's a lot of info that I know - that the out of town people who will be coming in to help don't. I am trying to get most of it written down - and the family organizer is the perfect tool! Another great surprise was book called Wise Words for Moms by Ginger Plowman. "The book identifies 22 behavior problems in children (such as disobeying, lying and tattling) and offers examples of Scripture passages that help parents address heart issues." (taken from her website)

It's super brief and to the point - a great reference tool - even during those tense times of disobedience. I had never heard of Ginger or her books and am really looking forward to reading some of her material. Thank you Rachel for such a generous gift.

Another special treat was a Kari Jobe CD from my friend Joanna. I was telling her that I was so sad that I couldn't attend the Women's conference at the church we attended in CO - and she very graciously sent me the CD of the worship leader from the conference! I have been really enjoying the sweet and gentle spirit of her music. You can listen to some of her songs on her website - so be sure to check it out.

So, now it's my turn to give away! I'd like to give away a Kari Jobe CD - and I'd like to give away a Wise Words for Moms. I am going to give them away separately - so just leave a comment and let me know what you'd like. If you'd like both - that's fine - just say so! And, I am happy to ship internationally - so comment away!

The giveaway will end Thursday evening, July 3rd, 8:00 central time.

p.s. I just re-read this post and I think there are some major run-on sentences and places that should have commas that don't etc... but it's very late, and I am very tired. So, we'll just have to ignore the grammar mistakes this evening. :)

Spring is in the air!

I have been looking forward to this challenge hosted by my friend Monica at The Homespun Heart. She has challenged and given me the motivation to get the final details from our move taken care of. I have those last 15 ? or so boxes that need to be dealt with - pictures to hang - and just a little touching up that needs to be done in each area of our home. A good cleaning on top of all of that will make our home finally feel like Home Sweet Home! Plus, I believe in this post I promised to show you more pictures of my home. Well, you're really going to get to see it - because I will be posting before and after shots. I'm going to let it all hang out friends! Welcome! :)




So, here is the game plan:
March 6th - Office Area
March 7th - Laundry and Game Room
March 8th - Dining Room
March 11th - Kitchen
March 13th - Family Room and Downstairs Bath
March 14 & 15 - Garage (date may move going to need Hubs help with this one)
March 18th - Master Bed and Bath
March 20th - Kid's Rooms and bath

Now, the challenge is open until the 31st - but I would like to get my cleaning done before Easter. We are going to have our first official visitor - my sweet friend Donna Rene is coming to spend Easter weekend with us. I'd love to have all of this done before she arrives.

If you'd like to know more about Monica's Challenge and how you can join in just visit her site! Thanks so much Monica for providing the inspiration and accountability!
