Hello Everyone!
I can't believe it but yesterday was my three years of blogging anniversary!
Where does the time go? It really is true that the older we get the faster it passes by.
To show my appreciation to all of you for reading along I'm hosting a giveaway.
~*~
1. Leave a comment on this post that you would like to win.
2. Be a follower of my blog and leave a second comment.
I would like to get to know you better!
3. For a third entry post about this on your blog, FB or Twitter page.
~*~
Thank you very much to all of you for your support and kindness.
I'm so glad to "know" you all. Blogging is a wonderful thing!
Here are all of the fun goodies you might win.
A cute bird catchall. I could see this for tea bags, rings while you wash dishes or office supplies.
The yummiest candle I have ever smelled. It is delicious!
It took all I could do not to keep this one...:)
Hot chocolate melting sticks for those cold evenings ahead.
Two kitchen towels and two oven mits.
An adorable recipe keeper!
It has pockets for coupons and your own recipes.
It's also filled with mouth watering recipes for the upcoming holidays.
A tea canister, tea mug and milk pitcher all in white.
A box of six assorted teas such as orange spice, lemon and jasmine. Yummy!
I will select the winner by random number generator on Thursday November 10th.
Good luck to each of you!
Have a wonderful week!

Hi Melissa! I am a faithful follower! Congrats on three years! I would love to win this set, thanks for the opportunity!
Me again for my second chance to win! I liked you right away because I am a Marine wife also! I loved the photos of the USMC ball... they're what first made me stop at your blog, "hey, I know that uniform"! I love to decorate and keep our home. Hubby just retired after his 20 years (some reserve time too) and is back to life as a police officer. But the corps is in our blood!
I enjoy your blog and love you show your beautiful home. Thanks, Mindi
EEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Right up my alley, I tell ya. My girls and I have tea every day at 4. (One of my girls (Emily) really loves hot chocolate instead.
In one of my upcoming posts, I am going to be talking about organizing those holiday recipes, so this book would come in super handy for that ;)
What a lovely giveaway you have put together for us. How sweet and thoughtful! Do you come with the giveaway, too, so we can have tea together?
