I wish I could buy you all Christmas presents!
I can't buy them for all of you but I can for one of you!!!
Since I don't know who will win
I haven't even bought it yet!
When I pick a winner I will shop just for YOU!
I know a lot of you & want to pick out something I think you would like. If I don't know you I will be happy to look through your blog to try to figure out a special gift for you. If the winner does not have a blog I will just get ya something good.
(You will just have to trust me about that one.)
Simple to Enter:
1) Just leave a comment on this post.
2) Second Entry for Followers.
That is it!
But I also want to leave you with some tips to a reuse, recycle, green, Christmas. The tips are a few I picked up from my boys:
Gift wrap can double for the perfect sword.
Christmas ornaments can double for Fire Num-Chucks.
Who knew?
Gift bags that have been regifted 10 times by the time
they make it to you make fabulous hats:
All the rage in Paris.
But a REALLY GOOD TIP...
...there is another giveaway over at:
And I promise you ...if you win my giveaway your package will NOT have a few kids pop out when it arrives (Unless of course you are Anne of Fiona & Twig...then expect a very large, very heavy, & probably very hungry by then, package.)
Giveaway Ends November 30.
GOOD LUCK!!!
Great recycling advice!! I always tell my hubby that we should just wrap up big boxes because that is all they seem to play with anyway after they open gifts! :) Cute giveaway!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun giveaway-
ReplyDeleteand yes I am a follower.
I hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving week-

Hi. My name is Jessica and I am a new follower. I think the repetitious theme you will find on my blog will make you think of diamonds and pearls. HAHAHAHA...I actually just posted a giveaway today too! Great minds think alike! And obviously, I am lying and you know me so bless someone else. I just wanted to pop in and say hi...and how cool is that action shot with Bo in mid air? You are a recycling genius!
ReplyDeleteThe best kind of gift!!! Although I would take those precious energy filled children in a heartbeat!!!! Might be easier if I came there, ha ha!!!!
ReplyDeleteIf I would have kept all the boxes from the gifts the kids received, I could have had a complete set of play boxes....cause that's what they enjoyed the most!!!! I am a follower, I will add this to my sidebar though!!!
Hugs,
Margaret B
What fun! Your boys are adorable!Boys are always super sweet to their mamma's though!Would love to be entered in your drawing! Traci
ReplyDeleteWe have many wrapping paper swords as well. Gotta love boys :)
ReplyDeleteMer
Funny how your little Bo shows up in every photo!! He's such an inventive little guy! Recycling can be fun!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for having a giveaway and sharing about another one ~ have a Joy-filled Thanksgiving Day!
Your boys are so funny! You can always send me the kids... When we're done playing I'll send them home with one extra for you. :) Sweet'ums would love Bo's fashion sense--she wears buckets on her head and blankets tied around her shoulders.
ReplyDeleteWhen you say follow, where do you mean? I don't do the Twitter thing. You're on my little updater thingie on Blogger. I feel silly for asking!
I need to get myself one of those fashion hats!
ReplyDeleteYou are soooo sweet to think of us all...hugs for a great Thanksgiving week my friend. xoxo
Cool giveaway idea! Now, at our house? We would find the same uses for the paper and bags as yours did. Aww. the mothers of boys!
ReplyDeletewhat a cool give-away you have :)
ReplyDeleteKids can be so inventive when it comes to playing...
And I'm a new folower :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Libbie, how fun! Love the recycled ideas. Maybe we could start a "Christmas Hat" tradition with old gift bags-redecorated, like Birthday hats! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a Happy Thanksgiving.

The children are getting so big!!! How is mommy doing? Are you starting to show? I bet Annie would love to have a little sister or brother. I know she will be happy just being a big sister.
ReplyDeleteI know I am enjoying a brand new grandMOM!!! My little granddaughter is 9 weeks old now. Please stop by Grace and see her dedication. Please enter me in the Give a Way. I love surprises!!!

Hey Libbie - I love reading your blog. You have the cutest family! I love technology; makes the miles between friends and family seem like less. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
ReplyDeleteThe best part of Christmas wrap is the sword fighting! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower too!
ReplyDeleteStrange - today's paper in Melbourne says children like the simplest toys possible. Not the latest toy at 384 dollars!!!! Yes I agree with cardboard boxes. Ideal for hide and seek.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by and saying hi! I love the name of your blog-I too am a middle child!! Your children are adorable and I think they will love Cap'n Crunch French Toast! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

But of course they are sword and num-chucks... you have boys!!! max makes a weapon out of EVERYTHING! I have recently started calling him the paper sculptor, he says he can make any weapon I can think of out of paper and tape! I really need to do a post about it, they are pretty amazing really :) Count me in for the giveaway... and i think I follow you ;D Just look in your rear-view mirror next time you head to Target! ooooh creepier than the reappearing toy!

ReplyDeleteI was having one of those " Sometimes being a Mom and a wife is just too hard days " it was good to take a little break for myself. You have a beautiful family Libby. It's been a long time since the Powderhorn days. I will check in again on your blog. I thinks it's time to make an Orange Julius

ReplyDeleteOh my.... isn't this fun? :-) I actually won a giveaway like this over a year ago from The Quintessential Magpie... She picked out the MOST wonderful things....and I adored each and every one of them....but my favorite was a little boy figurine holding an elephant.... He looks just like my grandson who's favorite animal is an elephant... I'm crazy about it....
ReplyDeleteWarmest blessings,
Spencer
