Whoo ~ Hoo

I am back!!

That's right we are back from vacation.
And we had a lovely time!
Sooo....relaxing!
The beaches were so beautiful and so white!

I hardly moved from under these bright blue umbrellas!

And there was no oil! Yay!
All I can think about is how awful it will be
if the oil does hit those breath taking beaches.
So say a little prayer for those folks down there!


Now, before I left I hit the NaDa Farm Sale!
I had the pleasure of meeting Joy from Savvy City Farmer.
Her things are so unique! She is one very creative lady.
It was a pleasure to meet you Joy!

~ Lovely things ~ Don't ya think~

Then I met Tracey from French Larkspur.

She gave me a shout out on her blog.
Which was so sweet of her because
I had the most hits I have ever had!!
Thank You Tracey!

Oh my gosh! Giveaway #2

First, I would like to thank you for checking out my blog!

I have a site meter, which tells me how many hits I get in a day.
And, as I do not have that many followers yet,
my hits are increasing daily.
Also I am starting to get more comment from all of you.
Which really makes my day!

Thank you~Thank you~Thank you

Now if only I could get certain friends and family
to figure out how to post a comment....
I would have it made!
(my mom, Aunt Kathy, Karen, and so on...lol!)

~On to the Giveaway~

As you know I am going on vacation
and because I have never had a blog before,
I am not sure I will be able to blog and vacation at the same time.

Lucky for all of you that I can only do one thing at a time.
Because that means Giveaway #2 for you!!

Here goes....

ever had or have seen a spoon collection?


Now I don't want to offend,
but I am just not really in to spoon collecting.
But I am into these really awesome Spoon Necklaces.



I have one...and I couldn't resist one for my mom
for Mother's Day!
After all the one I bought for my mom was
the same pattern as her Grandmothers silverware.
How cool is that!!



This cross is made from several spoon handles.
We'll call this choice...
#1


And this one is made from the end of the spoon.
We'll call this choice...
#2

Sometimes I change the chain on mine.
I like it longer and wear it with a couple other chains.
It's really a lot of fun!!

So now's your chance to get one for your self.

Here's the rules, girls....

1. Become a follower or let me know you are already a follower by leaving me a comment.

2. For a second chance to win leave me a separate comment telling me what's your favorite kind of jewelry.
{My favorites are...rings or maybe bracelets or necklaces...Oh who am I kidding, I love it all!}

3. For a third chance to win, mention this giveaway on your blog and leave a separate comment letting me know.

Wow!
Your name could be in the hat up to 3 times!


I am using Random.org to pick the winners.
I will pick 1 winner and one runner up.
The winner will get their choice and
the runner up will get the other necklace.
I think there both wonderful so it's a win win!!
I will be announcing the lucky winners next week when I get back.

I'll miss posting, but my husband and I made a pact
that we would take a real vacation.
So no emails or internet for us for the week!

Until next time!!

Hugs....
