Magnificent Monday!!! (aka I Won!!)

Woo Hoo, I won a giveaway from daily decorator. The prize is this fabric covered magnetic board from Steel Dreaming Designs.

Makes for a great and exciting Monday!!! :)

**Edit**

Amazingly, I won another blog giveaway the same week. I absolutely love Mod Podge Rocks and was so delighted to have won a Mod Podge starter kit. This will sure come in handy for some craft projects that I have in mind!

This certainly added some sunshine to a week that included a sick grandson, a close friend with a death in the family, another friend whose husband is fighting cancer, another friend recuperating from surgery, and a computer crash at work. What a week!!

A Wonderful Surprise!

I received a small package in the mail last week. I didn’t remember ordering anything, so I wasn’t quite sure what it was. Upon opening it found this little beauty:



I won this freshwater pearl bracelet from here. I don’t know what was more exciting—finding out I had won or receiving my prize. This is the second time I have won something from a blog and winning is delightful!

Have I mentioned lately that I LOVE blogging?

A Happy Thanksgiving Indeed!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my family and friends. My family and I have so much for which to be thankful. This time last year our small fry, Hunter was still at Cooks Children's Hospital weighing less than 4 lbs. Freddie & I spent Thanksgiving with Gabe, Ryan & Dane at Ft. Worth, so they wouldn't be alone.

This year we are at home celebrating with our family and friends. Hunter has made so much progress and is doing so well. Our other grandchildren are all healthy and growing so fast. God has blessed us in so many ways and we are truly grateful.

I even got a wonderful surprise yesterday. Hunter is growing so quickly that he is going to need a new car seat very soon. We thought we might buy him a new one for Christmas. Then last night I checked my email, and I got an email about this:

What a blessing to win this car seat for our little guy!! And what a thrill for my heart that I actually won something.
