Beth Moore Giveaway!!

COMMENTS ARE NOW CLOSED- THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERED!!

Hello Everyone,

So if you follow me on Twitter you may recall that I mentioned I was going to have a giveaway this Friday! Well it’s Friday. lol

As you can tell from my post title it is a Beth Moore Giveaway!! Now I love Beth Moore!! I love her Bible studies and I LOVE watching and listening to her. It’s like I am hypnotized. lol

So what am I giving away? This -

This being the Personal Reflections Series of Jesus: 90 Days with the One and Only! Here is a little snippet from the back:

YOU THINK YOU LOVE HIM NOW. . .

Just wait till you’ve spent 90 solid days enmeshed in His life, walking with Him through triumph and trial, reacting to the very same questions He posed to His first followers.

That’s because this is deeper than daily devotional. This is Bible study. This is a plunge into the Word’s picturesque original languages. Yet it’s also an invitation to quietly sit at His side and awaken your spirit, to hear and respond through journaling and prayer. To love Him. Oh to love Him!

Jesus: 90 Days with the One and Only is everything you’d expect a Beth Moore devotional book to be – the perfect blending of your heart, hers, . . . and His.

If you read my blog on a regular basis you know that all I require is a comment to enter my giveaways. I don’t want to make you follow me – only if you want to. I don’t want to make you have to Tweet, Facebook or blog about it. If you want to do any of that you can I am just saying it’s not required.

So just comment and in the comment tell me your favorite Beth Moore book, Bible study or any thoughts you have on her. Oh and for the lucky winner I will also include a personal surprise!

This giveaway will be open till August 14, 12:oo pm CST. I will use Random.org to pick the winner. I will notify you by email so make sure you leave one if it’s not in your profile. If you don’t I will have to pick another winner. I will post the winners name that same day by 8:00 pm CST. So good luck to all of you and until next time

Have a blessed day!

Puppy Love

Hello Everyone,

I thought I would show a few videos of Ray with our other little man Chico. When we first brought Ray to our house Chico was all over him. Smelling him, licking his fingers. He couldn't get enough of him. He also is very protective of him. Now that Ray is bigger they are so cute to watch. When Ray sees me or his Paw he's always saying Chi-chi. Then he'll just come out of the blue and say 'I love Chi-chi'. He is just too cute. So I hope you enjoy them. Sorry for the moving, shaking and shortness of these videos. I have to sneak and take them because if they think anyone is watching they stop.

This first one is when Ray was about 3 or 4 months old.

The following video is more recent. Ray is kissing and loving on Chico. Again sorry for the awkward positioning but as I said I have to get these the best way I can. lol



Ray giving Chico a quick hug.



This one doesn't have Chico in it but Rays laughing is just so cute I included it. He and his dad are playing with a box. lol I think Ray was around 5 or 6 months here.




Here's a little listening pleasure - Puppy Love by Donny Osmond. lol

Go to folder - FileFactory.com

One more thing - I am nearing my 200th post. So I will be having a giveaway. My 100th post was the same day as the One World One Heart Event so that was basically my giveaway for that. So come back on Thursday and enter my giveaway! Until next time

Have a blessed day!

Hold It Up Giveaway!!

Hello Everyone,

Go check out Megan at Hold It Up To The Light's Times Are Tight Giveaway.



This is why she is having this giveaway:

You probably have friends who have lost their jobs,
or others who can't find one.

It is impossible to turn on the TV, read the paper, or surf the web
without hearing about what a bad state our economy is in.
We are all cutting back in one way or another, and
many of us are trying to find ways to make a little extra money.

I have friends who have small businesses.
Some of them have been around for a while,
and some of them are brand new.

I want to help them, and that's what these
giveaways are all about!

Each month or so, I will highlight a friend's business.
It will give them a chance to show off their stuff

Really a neat idea huh? This is actually her 2nd giveaway of this kind. This time she has some really neat ear rings to giveaway. Hey I love ear rings!!

Have a blessed day!

Gratitude Tag and SITS

Hello Everyone,

Wow can you believe it's already December 1st? Hard to believe that 2008 is almost over. Those great gals over at SITS are having their very first Annual Merry SITSmas post tomorrow. The grand prize is a $200 Target gift card and YOUR Blog Featured as their Friday Favorite!! They are going to be giving away a prize every hour tomorrow. How exciting! I'll be going home tonight and trying to figure out which Christmas picture I want to use. If you haven't been to their site you need to click on over right now. You're gonna love it!

I have been tagged by Lisa! It's a Gratitude Tag! The rules are to name 10 things you are grateful for and then tag 5 people. I'll be taking Lisa's lead and adding some pictures too!

I am grateful for:

1. Wouldn't be here without God and his son, Jesus, who died so that I can be saved.
2. My grandson Ray. Just seeing his little face transforms whatever mood I am in into one of happiness. I love him more and more everyday.

3. Definately my husband, he puts up with me and my family. Being an only child, it was hard to marry into a family of 4 sisters and a brother. He hears everything and I know he gets tired of it.
lol

4. My beautiful daughter Summer. She is the best mom and makes both of us very proud.

5. Josh, my son-in-law, he is good to my daughter and is a great dad. Here's a picture of both of them:



6. My mom and dad and step-dad. They are always there for me.

7. My 3 sisters and brother. When I need them all I have to do is call.

8. Nieces and nephews. They are constantly making me proud.



9. My other baby Chico.



10. Last but not least my health!

So there you have it. Now I have to tag 5 other people so let's see. I think I'll take Georgie, Yaya, Melody, Valarie and Kori. I love reading all of their blogs and hope they don't mind me tagging them.

I hope everyone has a great Monday. Oh and you know I can not close without mentioning that WE WHOOPED AUBURN 36-0!!! YES!!!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!

Have a blessed day!
