catching up & a giveaway

 

 i've been a tad behind over here on the blog.

this last week i was practically glued to my computer

trying to catch as much of the Passion 2012 live stream as possible.

if it wasn't for meals & laundry 

i might not have ever surfaced.

i woke up yesterday so excited about attending church today

at passion city

only to realize it was only saturday.

that's how awesome it is...

 ~~~

i wanted to chronicle a few images from christmas morning

& then share about a fabulous giveaway.

as you can see,

an epic response from little bit on realizing

that her little envelope containing nothing but a phone number

was actually her new phone number

to use on sissy's handmedown phone.

woulda thought we'd given her a million dollars!

i was so excited for the girls to open their gifts.

i am every year, but this year i knew i had scored a few

wow's for them!

so fun to see the expressions of your loved ones

when they're loved on.

savannah had asked if they could have cutie jammies for christmas

so i scored these little cuties from old navy on a sale day 

with an extra % off which brought them to about $4 a pop.

 

dan asked for one of the coolest gifts.

a special package of Atlanta Braves tickets.

two tickets for 5 games

including the home opener, one the weekend of july 4th

& one against the Yankees

(he's from Long Island)

he asked for this & plans to have a daddy daughter date

with each girl individually to each game

& then one with me.

too fun!

 

& now for a little treat...

savannah had ordered this fantastic burlap pillow for me

complete with the year we were married!

lovelovelovelove this little guy

& love that my sweet girl found it, picked it out

& ordered it just for me.

i posted this picture on fb & after receiving a handful of emails 

thought i'd contact the etsy shop owner.
