~ This giveaway is now closed ~
When I started this blog a year and a half ago, who would have thought I'd have enough to publish 500 posts?
{Those of you snickering and thinking that I always have something to say can just be quiet now...and you know who you are...Christin}
But having reached a monumental blogging occasion, I'm thinking that this calls for a GIVEAWAY!! To celebrate, one of my lucky readers/commenters will win a $25 gift certificate to Amazon.
How's that sound to you all?
There are several different ways to enter this giveaway {and several ways to get some extra entries!}. You have the chance to enter up to five times!
Are you ready??
Here are the ways to enter:
- Leave a comment on this post ~ 1 entry.
- Subscribe to my blog using the lovely RSS feed on the side or become a follower. Once you become a follower or subscriber {or if you already are}, leave me another comment letting me know ~ 1 additional entry.
- Let me know a few of your favorite posts. If you are new to my blog, I'd recommend clicking on the label 'Zachary' on the sidebar. There's tons of material there. :) You can leave up to THREE additional comments on this giveaway post telling me the titles of your favorites. Leave one comment for each of your favorites ~ up to 3 entries.
Thanks so much for being a reader of my blog!!
p.s. Be sure to check out Heavenly Homemakers giveaway carnival this week!
I follow your other blog (and LOVE it)but had never stopped by to look at this one. I'm moving today and have NO time for looking, so I'll be by again as soon as our internet is up (hopefully before the weekend) to read more of the posts on this blog.
