Ten years ago today, I was lucky enough to marry the love of my life! We didn't celebrate big on our first anniversary, because I was 8.5 months pregnant :) And, well… we didn't celebrate big on our second anniversary, because I was pregnant again! Thankfully, we stopped that trend (whew!) and have been able to celebrate big ever since.
This weekend we're celebrating ten wonderful, crazy, fun, hilarious, God-filled years in Highlands, North Carolina. Happiness!! Marriage is such a gift… a gift you have to work for, every day, to be sure. But it is worth every bit of effort. I'm SO grateful for my husband and for our family. I feel so blessed!!
I've got some furniture before & afters to post while I'm here, but right now I wanted to remind you about the giveaway. We will draw our winner on Monday, June 27!! Here is the information about the giveaway one more time…
So in honor of my *now 434* followers, I'd like to do a fun giveaway. What do you think?
Since all we can talk about these days is chalk paint, I thought I'd give away:
2 cans of Annie Sloan chalk paint
1 can of Annie Sloan soft wax
1 wax brush by Annie Sloan
(About $100 value)
I'll get it all from my favorite chalk paint source, The Southern Institute of Faux Finishing, and I will pay for it to be shipped to your home!
OR… if you win the giveaway & you're not interested in chalk paint, I'll just give you the cash! So a win-win for everyone (I know lots of my followers are personal friends, who don't share my furniture/paint obsession).
All you have to do to enter the giveaway is be a follower of the blog ~ that is it! You don't even have to leave a comment :) I LOVE chalk paint, and I want everyone to have the opportunity to experience it too. But I know its costly, so this is my chalk-paint-peace-offering-give-away!!!
Hope you all have a GREAT weekend!!! Thanks for your support!

Happy Anniversary! Hubs and I celebrated 23 years this year. We were going to go on a cruise for our 10th Anniversary, but we had a baby instead. We're still trying to do a cruise!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! Hope you guys have a great trip!
ReplyDeleteHappy Happy Anniversary. During our first four years of marriage I had 3 babies. One just after our 1st year anniversary. The next one a year and a month later...and the next one 18 mos. after that. What a zoo. This was in addition to my 7 year old son...who was 10 when his youngest brother was born. Like I said...a ZOO! xo Diana
