Hi Kelsie,

Thanks for entering our giveaway. Please enter me in yours. I would love that apron because I'm sitting here in a shirt stained with spaghetti sauce from dinner! Hehe! I'm a little messy!

Jane has won a homemade pot holder, a lovely little "Cup of Friendship" book and some sparkly fairy bait....

And most importantly the One Of A Kind, Handmade apron to keep the spaghetti sauce at bay.

Thank you so much to those that entered and I hope the new followers are glad they came along for the ride and will stay for a little while more.

Blessings Kelsie

Tour Guide Sara

Since this week has been all about lil Sara, I thought it only fitting she should be your guide this week and show you some of her favorite things in the garden...

Gotta love the girls sense of style as she stands in front of the porch...
Notice the white builder sand is still present in this spot...because a certain little 3yr old princess loves to dig right here...She is not going to be so happy when I finally add a paved pathway there.

She loves to help water the potted plants too..Something mummy has been neglecting lately..

And you know she just loves all the butterflies that visit...

Sometimes we will be sitting in the living room and see these giant beauties pass the window and she will go running outside to watch them flit around the flowers...

Actually this is exactly how we ended up outside for today's tour.

Under one of the big old pecan tree's is our "wash tub" with the angel statue..Sara loves to watch the squirrels run up and down the tree and the pretty Cardinals that visit the bird feeder on the other side of the tree...

Because her favorite color is pink, you know she just loves these fluffy full flower heads
(Yes Darla I have forgotten the name already lol)

She also loves the Everlastings because they look like big fluffy paper stars...

But her one of her very favorites is the hibiscus...She loves the huge red blooms and is always sad when she finds them spent and drooping and ask's..."What 'appened 'ere?"

Please stop by and enter my give away...
Ends Midnight 31st of Aug 2001

Magical Give-Away - August 2011

Who knew when I started this blog 320+ posts ago that it would open up a whole new magical world to me...A world of tea-parties, flowers, gardening and returning to a simpler way of life...Where it is okay to like pink and sparkles and shabby chic...Goats and Sheep and Chickens OH MY!!!


Just because you work hard in the yard or around the farm does not mean you can't enjoy the finer things indoors.

So today ladies, I invite you to join me to celebrate all these wonderful things, as well as the friendships that come along with being a lady blogger...

I am offering you a chance to win, a handmade apron and matching pot holder...Lovely little book called "A Cup of Friendship"...and a little bag of Fairy Bait...Because there is nothing more magical than tea with friends, especially one that has wings...

I do hope you will also invite all your friends to join us by grabbing the button below or from my side bar.

Rulez...I guess we should have some...

No burping at the table and please use your napkin not your shirt tail...

Never tug at a Fairies wings or she will not wish to stay for tea....

Please do not enter give-away more than 3 times to be fair to others...

Working on a little something for you...

I have been hinting at a give-away since January...and even purchased the fabric back then...It was not until today however I have had time to make a start on it....Can anyone guess what this is going to be...(and no a correct guess does not mean you automatically win it)
