Come and GET IT!


Today:  A few items of business...

First of all:  Happy Birthday to my Mother-in-law Christie!

Second:  I am so happy to have completed a special writing assignment that was sort of stressing me out this week.  I am so excited about this.  You don't even know.

When I wrote my Christmas Chill Pill post earlier this week, I was not stressed about Christmas so much as I was about having a very quick turn-around deadline to meet, right in the middle of Christmas...and I wanted it to be great!  I turned it in early, so I could move on to the many other jobs I've got to complete in the next seven days...including making the 20 gingerbread houses that you see pictured above.  (No I didn't do it alone!)  Now lets just keep our fingers crossed that they like what I wrote.

And third, I really hate to end the beautiful discussion that is going on in the comment section of yesterday's post about being believing, but I did say I'd announce the WINNERS today, so here we go.

Thanks to all of you who shared and commented this week.

I thought it would be fun to do a bunch of giveaways this week as a thank you to for reading and commenting all year long and to give exposure to some shops that I really love.  Thanks to each one of you!  I appreciate the support that you give me here on my blog and the testimonies that you share.

If you were selected to win one of the prizes below, please email me your name and address at jocelyn.christensen@gmail.com. If you didn't win...Well, there's always next week...  :)
