Valentine and 200th Post Giveaway

***This is a sticky post. To see my regular post, please scroll down. Thanks***


Can you guess what's in this pretty box below? I don't think so, nor would I expect you to. In honor of Valentine's Day and my 200th post, I'm having a giveaway. The pretty box is packed full of goodies for someone to enjoy. I'm having the giveaway early so that the lucky winner will get their prize in time for Valentine's Day. Please add my Valentine Giveaway graphic to your blog and inform others so we will have lots of participants.

Rules: I'm hoping that this giveaway will help bring some new blogging friends into our lives, so you must have a blog and leave a comment to enter the giveaway. If you win, I will need your shipping address immediately so I can get the parcel out to you in time for Valentine's Day.


The deadline for entering the contest is Tuesday, January 22, 2008 at midnight my time, which is EST. Thank you for your participation. Now let's have some fun. ~Blessings, Mary~

  79. Mary, So sorry I haven't kept in touch. Have been having health issues related to car accident last April and post holiday blues after son returned to AZ. I didn't know about your grandson and Asperger. My 22 yr. old son has Autisum and they added the Asperger a week ago. We are in the process of connecting him with a vocational rehab in our city for employment help and educaton assistance to go beyond his H.School diploma. he has had a difficult year and seems to be getting worst as he ages instead of remaining the same or some inprovement. Now whew...that pretty pink box sure is an interesting one!!! And gosh you lucky girl who went to Disney!!! I'm a hopeing and a praying my yougest son and I get to go in April either with the H.School band or just the two of us!! I so miss it! I promist to add you to my side bar so were no longer lost, take care, Lori
