We went out for my birthday on Friday night for Thai food and a movie
with my siblings and their spouses, and my dad. It was
great to get together after we were all scattered this way and that for
the summer. And just the kind of birthday party I like—easy and low-key.
I'm so glad they all could come along. If you ever visit Tempe, AZ, Yupha's Thai Kitchen is the place to eat.
Of course, this year wasn't a 'big-deal' birthday. When the next one of those
comes along, I'd like a Disco Dance Party with wigs required—nothing
mellow.
This giveaway circus is keeping me plenty anesthetized from any potential
birthday blues. It's quite a project behind the scenes to make sure
everything is reported accurately and the winners are chosen fairly.
(Random number generator, after duplicates and late entries are
subtracted.)
I hope you're having as much fun as I am. I feel like
a game show host at this point, "Step on down, take a spin, survey says
— you win." I need fine, feathered 70's hair and a sparkly dress.
As soon as today's giveaway post goes up, I'll get to work drawing
winners for the last few giveaways. Expect those updates by midday
tomorrow.
And remember that our Day 16 giveaway for a Cricut Expressions 2 electronic cutting machine ends at 11:59pm PST tonight. So, there's still time to enter.
Without further ado, today's giveaway prize is a sewn book tote from FamLee Treasures, made with fabrics from my Garden District collection, as well as a Heather Bailey planner, a chevron note pad and a pack of personal stationery. A $73 value.
FamLee Treasures
is my office manager Karen's Etsy business. Her adorable totes also
make perfect craft totes or church bags. Karen was excited to get
involved with our giveaway party—and it's her birthday this next week
too. That's another vote for Birthday Month. Happy Birthday, Karen!
