And The Winner Is…….

 

Today was so busy, I almost didn’t get around to drawing names for my "1,000 Posts and Over 4 Years Later" Give-a-Way.

There were exactly 50 names/entries.

And the names were placed into my cowgirl hat.

And then I decided to do something a little different……because I can.

You got a problem with that?

So I chose more than one winner.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**The Grand Prize Winner will win the Winter Basket! Stuffed full of books, Bigelow and Tazo Teas, chocolate kisses, a candle, a metal ‘Story Pony’ bookmarker, ‘Eat, Sleep and Ride’ metal plaque, a fleece blanket and a warm, hand-knit ‘peacock’ colored hat.

(Note: I forgot to tuck the fleece blanket in the photo and by the time I realized I’d forgotten, my fingers were numb from shooting in the snow with 7F degree temps and I had to go back inside and thaw out)  

**A Second Place Winner will win a very cute and special book by author Lisa Breeden Garcia titled "If a Dog Could Blog". I met Lisa in November while at The Weems Artfest in Albuquerque.

**A Third Place Winner will win a warm, hand-knit winter hat, made by me AND a $5.00 Starbucks Gift Card!

**A Fourth Place Winner will win a soft, hand-knit winter hat, made by me!

(Sure hope y’all like to wear knit hats. lol!)
