Things I Love Thursdays

I don't know how it can be Thursday already...the week is just flying by!

I love homemade cookies! Normally in the summer I don't make cookies in the evening, I usually do it early morning, but since it is cold here..I thought I would make them tonight!


And then of course...we have to have taste testers! My 3 kids and 2 of my nephews and 1 niece were over for the evening! They enjoyed cookies with milk!

Happy Thursday to everyone!

My First Giveaway!!- Ended on July 3rd

I am so excited to be doing my first giveaway!! I am giving away One Engraved Sign from Engravers of Light, check out their website here.


A little background on the company, well it is owned by my Husband and my Dad. We started the business about 5 years ago. The Lord has blessed the business so much that 2 years ago my Husband quit his teaching job and came on full time. We feel so blessed. So we would like to bless someone with a great sign for your house!!

All of our signs are engraved not painted on. The lettering is the natural color of the wood. Except for the cream signs those get stained and the lettering is darker then.

We will be giving away one 3 Foot Sign with your choice of saying and color. We have 54 different sayings in the 3 foot sign and 6 different colors (black, burg, cream, green, blue and brown). Click here to see the 3 foot sayings and colors.

3 Ways to Win:
1. Go here and tell me what phrase and color you would choose.
2. Follow my blog or let me know that you do follow me already!
3. Blog about this giveway and let me know you did!
