The "Y’all Gotta See This"… Giveaway
It’s a fact of my life that I never win anything. It wouldn’t be such a big deal if I didn’t have one friend who is currently at DollyWood with tickets she won on a radio station or another who is going to stay at the Opryland hotel for three days with a prize package she also won on the radio. Geesh.
Understandably so, I was thrilled last year when I won my first thing ever – Sue’s Praise and Coffee Giveaway. In fact, if you’ll remember, my prize caused an all out ruckus at our house.
I don’t know if we are short on ruckus-es or if God is just being sweet to me, but I just found out from darlin‘ Yvette at Charm House that I won her first giveaway! And y’all. This isn’t just any ‘ole giveaway. Look at what all is in this basket of southern love!
If you’ve never visited Yvette, you simply must go to this post of hers. It is of her beautiful garden. Props will go to the girl who can figure out what my favorite thing is in it.
BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!
This is the perfect opportunity to announce a little Summer Giveaway of my own.
Are you ready for a blog makeover? Then this giveaway is for you! I have a blog design (Package A) from my friend Amy at Split Decisionz. Go HERE to browse her portfolio – you’ll love what you see. I’m also including three credits from iStock photo so you can pick out the perfect graphic for your new design. Amy has a waiting list but the winner will be contacted as soon as her order pad re-opens.
You don’t have to jump through hoops to enter. Just leave a comment here and a winner will be randomly chosen on Saturday, July 12th!
Happy Summer!
Lisa,
I’ve decided that reading blogs by bloglines or any other reader might be efficient, but you miss the best blog updates!! This is the first time I’ve actually clicked on your actual blog since your redo! It’s BEAUTIFUl!!!!
Anyway, enter me, please. I never win ANYTHING, but there is always a first time for everything.
Blessings,
Dori
What a great idea! I’d love a new blog design!
Have a great summer.
Oh Lisa, I have several things that I think are your favorites about your friends garden. The gnomes, the chair with iron gate above it, the Tonka truck garden, and the rooster tucked away in the bird house garden. Glad you are back, missed ya!
A blog makeover is just the thing to make my summer super :D
and how could there be anything in that garden that you didn’t like?
Love that I don’t have to think or be creative to enter! Just comment and I’m in! Thanks!
I’ve never won a blog contest. Maybe this will be my lucky day :)
OOOOO!!!! Enter me! I usually don’t win this kinda thing, but it never hurts to enter!
I’d LOVE to win! I’m also one of those who has never won anything.. ever. She has some really cute stuff in her portfolio!
Lisa, I am so glad that you won my contest!! It is so fun to see someone win that has so much excitement and JOY! I love your blog and have from the first time I found it. You are truly blessed. Stay in touch, as I will do the same!

Hebrews 13:2 Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
I have never won anything either, but a new blog design would be awesome! Congrats on your win, and thanks for hosting this one!!!!
Count me in!! LOL I love reading your blog. Although I am not a preacher’s wife, I recently became a christian. My father was a pastor as well, so I can relate to some of your stories :)
God Bless!
I’d love to win a new design! I’m thinkin’ that if my computer had a smell feature, then surely those animals on my header must be getting pretty ripe! It’s been well over a year they’ve been hangin out there!
Oooh, pick me! Pick me! Thanks for doing this!
I’m a recent reader so I went back and took a look at the “ruckus”. Loved it! Left a comment there. You have a great blog. Blessings, marlene
I love winning things and I, like you, seem to rarely win. I’d love the chance for a blog makeover… I really don’t understand html for any of the cool stuff…
Thanks!
Charity
I never win a thang! But, here I go again…trying to win something:) Which btw is something I would love, love, love, love to win!! I need a new blog face!
Thanks a bushel!
Carrie
I’m just trying to start a blog & feel really intimidated by the whole process. I would love for my blog to at least APPEAR as though I know what I’m doing so I’m jumping on this opportunity. Thanks!
I love your blog & know that I will love your Bible study if my 5-month old will ever nap long enough for me to dive into it!
Congrats on winning the prize! I’m with you, I never seem to win anything either. Well, there was the time I won $100 worth of Neutrogena products from a store at the mall, but that was 19 years ago.
How cool! My second blog could use a bit of sprucing up! :)
Who doesn’t need a blog make over (can a beauty make over come with that package? ha ha!) Thanks for the chance to win- I love your blog!!
Hey Woman! It was wonderful to be a part of such a momentous event in your family and church! :)
Love ya,
Sue
Count me in! She has some good-looking stuff.
A new blog design would be really fun! Thanks for hosting this!
Congrats on winning a prize! I never win anything either, but…. joy in the mornin’,I recently broke that chain of luck and won a book at Mindy’s blog, “Ponderings of the Heart”!
Thanks for doing this giveaway. I would love to have a custom design.
Do you know what I’d do if I won the new blog design? I would do a happy dance! I’ve been feeling restless with my generic design.
I would love a new look for my blog. Thank you for offering this. Take care and God bless, Cory
I have no idea what your favorite part of the garden was… I suspect the gnomes… but mine is the tonka truck garden. =)
And please enter me.
Congrats on winning the giveaway!
I have that Paula cookbook and it rules!!!!
I’ve been contemplating getting a makeover! Maybe I’ll get one for free.
My friend Sandra sent this to me. I’d love to have a blog makeover! Thanks!!
I was just saying on my last post that I NEED a new look and I can’t ever afford the wonderful blog designs that I see everywhere. Please count me in!!!
I so need a blog makeover…
Thanks for a super giveaway!
I was just looking at my BORING blog this morning and thinking a blog update is so much more fun (and easier)than trying to arrange this house. No matter how hard I try I CANNOT fit 2000 sq ft of stuff into 1300!
See – a blog update is so much simpler!
Just what I need! Count me in…and thanks so much!
Oh I would love a bloggy makeover :)
I tried to do one myself and got all nervous that I was going to mess something up
BTW: I am guessing your favorite thing was the AU and GA gnomes
At first I was not sure since she had such great things in her garden but then I saw the gnomes – hehe
Those are cute!
God bless
Kim
I’m need of a blog make over, thanks for the chance to win one, Holly
A blog make-over…wouldn’t that be fun!
And my husband says things like yours about my blog all the time. All.the.time. I enjoy it so much I don’t even care!
Oh MAN do I need a blog makeover! Pick me! Pick me! :-)
Thanks for the fun prize!
There was this one time that I won something, but told them to give it to the next person because I already had what they were giving away. So, maybe this time, it’ll happen because I don’t even have a blog yet and want one!
How sweet. You are always giving something away what a great sweet heart you have. Please enter me too.
Lynn
Your favorite thing is the GEORGIA
gnome! Imagine amongst all that
Alabama/Auburn stuff.
oh, oh, oh, pick me! pick me! Seriously, I’d love to be entered. I’ve been watching her designs pop up around the blogosphere and am pretty certain she’s going to be busy busy busy.
:-) Susan
Congrats on your little prize! It is fun learning you’ve won!
You are calling my name…thanks for the giveaway!
Is your favorite thing the Georgia gnome???
I seriously want to win the blog makeover!!!!!
I can’t wait to meet you soon, Lisa! I can’t say I haven’t won anything because I won a book on 2nd Cup of Coffee at Linda’s blog. You wrote in it, too! Maybe I should bring it to the Siesta Fiesta so you can sign it?!
I feel lucky!
Love to you tonight!

Oh, I’ve been drooling over getting a re-design by Split Decisionz. I love what she did with your blog and what I’ve seen in other places. Sadly, not in the budget right now. This would be great! Thanks for doing this.
Hi, this is my first visit to your blog! I love your design and loved looking through the portfolio of all the other designs.
I am a pastor’s wife and I look forward to coming back and reading more…when it is not almost midnight :)
You have NO idea how much I need a blog make-over. Well, a total real life one would be good too, but I digress. Please enter me!
