and the winner is...

Happy Sunday y'all!

I've been SO busy with school and going out of town that I'm just now catching up all the posts in my Google Reader :( I hate when they all pile up so I make sure that I get my Google Reader all cleared out after I've read everyone's posts :)

I've been so busy I *almost* forgot about the giveaway I'm hosting from Allison's Etsy shop!

The winner will have a choice of any of Allison's coasters or shirts :)





The winner was chosen from random.org and the winner is.....


...entry #7 Sarah from Simply Sarah!

Congratulations, Sarah!

Email Allison at allisonjsewell@gmail.com letting her know you won the giveaway and what you've chosen :)

Thanks to all who entered!

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

miscellany monday.

Happy Monday y'all!

Whew...I'm glad today is almost over! It's always hard getting back into the swing of things after the weekend.

Since I have lots of random thoughts running through my head I thought I'd play along with Carissa's Miscellany Monday :)

Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters

I'm excited that it's really going to feel like fall by the end of this week :) Bring on the 60 degree temps!

J is super busy with work this week. Tonight and tomorrow night his company has a booth set up at the fair in town and Wednesday through Friday night he's having to host his company's spokesman (Chad from the Alltel commercials!) in Savannah! I guess I'll just see him here and there this week :(

{Not the best picture but this was when Chad visited back in March!}

The super sweet Lauren's Etsy page has a Heartsy deal going on today! Heartsy is a deal based website that provides discounts to Etsy shops. The deal you can receive today is a $21 credit to her shop for only $9! Wouldn't you love to have one of her beautiful necklaces as your own?!

My sweet friend Savannah is celebrating her birthday today! She lives in Atlanta now and I sure miss her a lot! Happy birthday Savvy Sav :)
