A birthday giveaway….just for you! :)

So….yes, the day has finally arrived. For the last 2 weeks, I have been sulking in this reality that I’m just getting older. But the 30s are the new 20s (so I hear)…so I will try to embrace it. ;)  This morning I woke up from a dream at about 5am. My husband stayed in from work and told me to get ready…that we’re going to New York (ahhh…that’s the highlight of the dream). B/c then I started crying when I realized I had nothing to wear. lol  That’s when I woke up….  No, there wasnt a NYC trip in today’s agenda, and no I wasnt crying over clothes.  Yes, I was still huge and pregnant! lol  But then I started to realize that, wow…I am 30!!!!! I am 30…..married to the love of my life, mother to a daughter that adores me….and that I love more than anything….and carrying a precious life that we have been blessed with…we have a roof over our heads and we are all healthy. Ya know….the little things that we all sooo take for granted every single day.  God has granted me another year of life to enjoy these things, and I only pray that I would live this year glorifying Him in everything!!!

So yeah…how about that giveaway!? :)  I thought I would make this extra special by gifting a lucky person! Then I thought, why not have 3 lucky winners!! Here is the deal. Comment below and I will select 3 winners to win 3 different giveaways. The order that each winner is selected will be the giveaway number they are winning. So, for example…first selected winner wins prize #1, second name drawn will win giveaway #2…and so on!  Here are the giveaways!!!

GIVEAWAY #1:  50 CUSTOM, LINEN CHRISTMAS CARDS FOR THIS COMING HOLIDAY. CAN FEATURE IMAGES FROM A PAST SESSION OR FUTURE SESSION.

GIVEAWAY #2:  $50 GIFT CERTIFICATE TO ANTHROPOLOGIE (MY FAV!!!! and since I cant wear it now….why dont I treat you to a little something!)

GIVEAWAY #3: COMPLIMENTARY SESSION WITH AP AND A 20 PAGE CUSTOM PHOTO BOOK FEATURING OUR NEW BOOKS/ALBUMS (ALL OTHER PRINTS AVAILABLE A LA CARTE)

There ya have it! You must be able and ‘ok’ with any of these giveaways to enter.  Cut off is at midnight and names will be announced tomorrow morning via the random number generator. You can enter as many times as you like. Oh, and be nice and tell your friends! :)  Good luck! Off to spend some time with my baby and parents…and my honey later on (since he didnt take the day off) ;-)

July 20, 2010 - 10:24 am Jamie - I just thought of another reason to celebrate - do you know all the freebies you can get on your birthday? My youngest has her birthday next weekend and she's already gotten emails/mail for a free Zaxby's cookie, free breakfast at IHOO, and a free cookie cake slice at Great American Cookie Company at the mall! I usually get a $20 coupon at Vera Bradley in my birthday month. At that rate, you could celebrate your birthday all month long!

July 20, 2010 - 10:26 am Jamie - I meant IHOP, not IHOO ;0)

July 20, 2010 - 10:26 am Nicole - Happy Birthday!!! You have a great perspective on life! Children seem to give us that! ;)

July 20, 2010 - 10:28 am Suzanne Halcomb - Happy Birthday sweet girl! Jackson misses his Ava! We need to have a "back to school party" for the kids. They've all grown so much over the summer. Oh, by the way, pick me!! heehee
