Celebrations and Giveaway News!

Brynwood Needleworks - Birthday Girl

  Do you know what today is? This grownup is doing a silly, little girl Happy Birthday, To Me dance!

Brynwood Needleworks - Birthday Girl

  This is what 61 looks like on me. Happy. Blessed. Loved. I think it shows, too.  

My celebrating began last weekend, and will continue, in typical Donna fashion for an extended period. If you read further, you might see how long I intend to draw it out this year!

I told you yesterday that I thought I'd do a giveaway to celebrate my 2400th Blog Post. Well, I did just that, and I'm going to combine it with my 61st Birthday celebration to give away something I hope you'll think is pretty cool.

My Birthday Giveaway Winners...

Quite the shameless plug for Birthday wishes (writing a Birthday post), don't you agree? I told you last week that I would have a drawing, and I came up with a Surprise Birthday Drawing!

So, if you left a comment to wish me Happy Birthday, your name was automatically entered in the drawing! Genius, eh?

I have two new mug mats to give away to celebrate. The first name drawn has first choice, and the other mat will go to the second name drawn.

I bet you're wondering who won, right?  

Winner Number One is:

  Lucy G. @ The Farmer's Attic

and
Winner Number Two is:

Kris @ Lavender Quilts

Lucy, you're first! Please send me an email to let me know which mat you'd like! Kris, please email your address and I'll send yours as soon as Lucy chooses hers.

Congratulations to both of you!

Thank you to everyone who left Birthday greetings for me. I had a wonderful day, and you were all a huge part of it. All of your comments made me smile, and I know that the next year will be wonderful because you all willed it to be so!

We didn't end up going to Ft. Myers, but Handsome and I still rolled out the Harleys and had a quiet dinner together in Nokomis, FL. It was a perfect night for a ride and a perfect Birthday, to be sure.

This week, I'll be working on Christmas gifts. I'll show tiny peeks. After all, we wouldn't want to give away any surprises, would we?
