About Me

My photo
I have been married to my childhood sweetheart for 42 wonderful years. I have been blessed with one daughter who is grown and gone! She and her hubby have blessed us with a precious grandchild, Darbee Rae. She is eight years old and the sunshine in our days. I have always been a stay at home maid, cook, doctor, babysitter, taxi, wife, mother, and grandmother. I enjoy crafting. My interests include primitives, vintage and colonial styles. I love decorating my home. I enjoy traveling with my hubby and friends, reading, and trying different recipes. I am a Christian and enjoy activities within my church. I hope you enjoy reading about my daily adventures in crafting, shopping, and enjoying life thru the eyes of my darling grand daughter.

Working On My First Giveaway

Okay blogging friends, The time is almost here for my very first giveaway and I am soo excited.  If you check out my followers I am only 9 friends away from reaching  the goal I set for myself of 100 followers in order to do my first giveaway.  I would have never dreamed  when I started back in January that I would have made so many friends and have so many wonderful folks stopping by to visit  and so many of you on a regular basic. You make my day and I love reading all the sweet comments and e-mails you leave for me. So help me get the word out and invite some of your friends to come and visit and become a follower and we will get this giveaway under way.

Will give you a tease ..... Got busy this afternoon and cut it out.... so part of the giveaway will be out of material.  But what will it be?   Will it be stained or painted,,, does it sit, stand , or hang?  What room would you use it in?  Is it seasonal or could it be left out all the time?  Will it need a name ?  Will it be stuffed or stiff? Will it be scented or have the prim coffee,vanilla scent? Guess what?  I know the answers to all the questions!!!  Having fun yet? (giggle)  I AM!!! Here is a picture.  Can you figure it out?

Okay , that's all I am going to tell you .  So come on ladies get the word out.  If I reach 100 followers by the weekend, on  Monday I will post the actual giveaway post and show a part of the giveaway.  If I reach 150 followers before the giveaway closes, then there will be a second drawing for another gift.  So go on now and tell your buddies to stop by and visit.

Thank all of you who continue to stop by.  Love chatting with you all .  Hope you have all had a blessed day and have found something to smile about.  Until next time.......
