Anniversary Giveaways!

What a difference a year makes! 
Since I started blogging, I have made some great friends!  I've met only a few of you but I feel as though I know you all!  Thanks for sticking with me.  Many have been followers and have commented on my blog since I started.  Some of you I've just "met!"
I'm having a giveaway to celebrate my anniversary and to show my appreciation to all of you!  I'm giving away some things that I have posted about.. (Sorry, my grandkids aren't up for the giveaway!)


                     1. Cooking With Connie

This cookbook is a must if you have children or grandchildren.  There are some great, easy recipes that even I can make! It's filled with colorful, step-by-step instructions and facts about the ingredients!  Perfect for teaching a child about the world of cooking! There may even be a recipe for lemonade!


Included in this giveaway are these colorful hot pads.  One for you and one for...you!  You might not want your child taking hot things out of the oven!






 Are you wanting to be more active and to be able to brag about the number of steps you've walked during the day?  Of course, you do!

(Not the exact pedometer but the same brand)
This digital pedometer is the tool you need!  Just clip it to your waistband (some of us are still looking for our waist) and it keeps track of the steps and miles you walk and the calories you're burning! 
Make sure you have s good pair of athetic socks and a supply of band-aids for any blisters!





I need to have make-up on my eyes before I leave the house because if I don't it can be pretty scary and I always run into people I know!  I'm giving away some Mary Kay (surprised?) eye makeup.
You get this compact filled with 3 mineral eyeshadows and 1 cheek highlighting powder! (Not these colors) Sorry, you won't get the lipstick BUT that's not all...


...You need to finish your look with an eyeliner and mascara!

 

That's a value of $69.50! 


Three prizes = 3 winners!
Here is all you need to do. 
Leave a sweet comment to let me know what prize(s) you'd like to win! 
How easy is that?  If you follow my blog, you get another chance to win. You're welcome to blog or FB about this giveaway.  If you do that, just leave another comment and let me know. 
Good luck, my friends!

  1. You got some GOOD loot to give away! And I'd be happy to take ANY of it off your hands, esp the cooking with kids!

    I subscribe to your blog in google reader, does that count as following you for a 2nd entry?

    And I just twittered about your giveaway, for another. :)

    (imagine me blowing on my lucky dice)

  2. Wow, awesome giveaway! I will go for #1 and #3 ( I would go for #2 too but I have a fancy shmancy running watch thingy that tells me how far I go, so I will let someone else win the cool pedometer!)

    Thanks :)
