500th Post Give Away!

Okay, even though I don't have everything together yet, I wanted to show you the main gifts in my 500th post give away!

This is a Royal Albert "Old Country Roses" variation tea cup. I collect these, I don't have this one, I WANT it! Can I put my name into the drawing?

This photo shows the teacup and saucer in their box and a box of PG Tips Tea. I will be sending you a box of my favorite tea, as well! I will also send you directions for making a perfect cup or pot of tea!
I have a few other little treats in mind as well, but for now, please leave me a comment about the favorite thing you have read or seen on my blog. I will put all your names into the drawing and have Kyle draw a name out on Monday!


I am looking forward to your comments! And to giving away some of my favorite things!

I can't choose my favorite thing about your blog.

I love the variety of things you post about. I feel like I've gotten to "know" you through your posts about homeschooling, daily life, funny kid stuff, homemaking, spiritual stuff-and all the rest.

I must say I would need the tea tutorial if I were to win. I just dunk a tea bag into hot water and take it out when it looks good. And I've never even heard of PG Tips tea. Sigh-I guess I should get out more. LOL My favorite tea is Good Earth Sweet and Spicy (even though it gives me heartburn).

I'll be quiet now that I've written a blog post as a comment. ;-)

I'd have to say my favorite thing to see on the blog is all the sweet pictures of my cousins! I feel more connected to you and your family even though we still live so far apart. I love "visiting" you every day!

well Being that I'm new to your blog it would have to be the field trip. It made me be inspired where I can head off with the kiddos.

Are you giving away rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens? These are a few of my favorite things!!!

Beautiful cup!! I agree with Karen, a tutorial on tea making is in store if not for the winner, for us all!! I dunk the tea bag too!

I was privy to this give a way! Thanks for the offering!!

I really like looking at your family pictures with comments. Many of them bring back memories of when my little girl was young. We used to do so many fun things together.

BTW, the glass pumkins are sooo awesome! Wish I was there. :)

I am amazed at those glass pumpkins, something I've never seen. Thats a display I would have loved to seen.

Im telling you where I live-it seems I'm missing out on so much beauty.
