Bloggy Give Away Carnival - Summer 2008

Wow - less than a week into having my blog and I get to participate in the Bloggy Carnival Giveaway from http://www.bloggygiveaways.com/. What good timing I have!

Bloggy Giveaways Quarterly Carnival Button

So here's how it works....Because I love life and love to laugh and love being in love, I am giving away something to decorate your home with life, love and laughter. It is a set of 3 words - Live, Laugh, Love - each with 3 picture frames that hang below. Fill it with pictures and memories to make you smile! Below is a picture of the "Laugh" - the others are still in their original packaging and I'd like to keep it that way.

Memories make me smile. Whether the memories are of my boys (including hubby) or hockey road trips with crazy girls from NJ they all make me smile.

Taylor said...

wow, happy birthday!

thanks for the great giveaway!

the thing that makes me smile the most is my son, samuel! being a mom can be hard at times, but its totally worth it when he looks at me with those big bright eyes and says 'thank you' or 'bless you' that is really all he says right now. he can say 'dada' but not momma yet. i still don't know how he learned bless you and thank you before momma.... but its still cute!

thanks!

Cristina said...

My boyfriend. It's even odd saying it, "boyfriend". lol I'm 37, going to be 38 on Friday, and I feel odd saying "boyfriend". Weird, huh? He has brought so much happiness into my life. He's the type to say, "Why are you waiting? Go out and create your happiness!" He's enabled me beyond words to find my happiness.

Easily the thing that makes me smile most are my boys. There's always a reason to smile when they're around. Thanks for the giveaway!

Crunchy Green Mom - Suzanne said...

When I pick my 19 month old out of her crib every morning, she always purrs, and then whispers her sisters name "LaLa", and then she looks up through her long hair and tries to find her little sister.

I love it, it warms my heart every time!

Henry said...

my daughter.. how unoriginal, i know.like tonight, my husband taught our daughter to say poop and she kept yelling it at everyone!

Jackie said...

Those are just precious!

My baby girl makes me smile more than anyone or anything else I can think of. See? I'm smiling now just thinking about her. :)

Fedora said...

My kids have the most potential to make me smile (well, the upside smiles sometimes, too, but that's a different story)--I especially love eavesdropping on kid-conversations. Those are typically hilarious :)

I love this giveaway! If you don't mind, could you share where you bought the frames? If I don't win I'd love to go ahead and buy a set for myself.

My 12 year old son makes me smile. He's got the funniest sense of humor. He's just a great kid.

Nancy Sabina said...

Definitely my kids. They always have something hysterical to say. Not too long ago my daughter asked me what a certain piece of paper was. I said "a receipt" and she said "what's a receipt" and I said "a piece of paper that the store gives you after you buy something" to which she replied "that's just silly, Mom. Stores don't have hands! What's a receipt really?" It was hysterical.

Sweetpeas said...

Nothing beats my girls giving me a big hug & telling me "I love you, Mommy!" :)
