La Caille Winner

Announcing the {2} winners of the La Caille Giveaway

Beth and Heart Baby Home

I just loved heart Baby Homes Answer, so here it is:

"I grew up near La Caille....and I've never even driven through the trees to see it. (doh - how'd that happen)...my brother used to work there....hehe

ok...Valentine's plans....is that this month? Here's the PLAN:

My honey is going to scoop me up and fly us in a private jet to some island near the Bahamas where it's crazy warm. We're going to play on the beach and spend a month soaking up sun and writing a novel together.

We might try to swing by Italy on the way home."

I'll be emailing you shortly. Thanks everyone for participating.

La Caille Giveaway ~ Mid Week Munchies

*** This giveaway is now closed. Thank you.***

Happy February!! After Christmas and the whirlwind that is, I like tothink of January as a nice break  from all the hullabaloo. Here in Utah, January is full of snowy days, freezing temps and constant winter gear. That is why I love February! Right smack in the middle of winter you have this fantastic holiday where everyone say "I Love You!"  Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday (yes, more than Christmas) so why not celebrate Valentine's Day properly and have a GiVeAwAy!!

Whether you want to take your sweetheart out for a romantic dinner or get some dessert with girlfriends or even give your GC as a gift. This is one giveaway you won't want to pass up.

I am insane over La Caille. It is one of the most beautiful restaurants in Utah. Located in Salt Lake City, situated on 22 acres La Caille's french grounds and chateau is an experience. The food is delicous and the desserts are to die for, can I just recommend when you go the Beignet Francaise

Giveaway Winner

Thank you everyone for participating in my Easter Giveaway. I loved reading everyone's comments on their Easter Traditions and I have some new ideas. Sorry I am not posting the winner until now, this past weekend and I didn't feel well.

But, the winner is AMY!!! Congratulations.

Who said: "What a great idea! I am excited to go pick out a couple "special" books for the kids".

EaStEr GiVeAwAY

Every year at our house the Easter bunny along with hiding Easter baskets, leaves a stack of books. My husband and I came up with this idea for a few reasons.

No. 1 We really wanted to get away from the whole idea of "more toys".

No. 2 We hoped this would get our boys excited about books and reading.

No. 3 We wanted the boys to have memories of: "The Easter Bunny gave me this book" and in turn hoping the book would hold sentimental value. (Just like Christmas Presents from Santa!)

Happily I can say all three ideas worked. Even a few days ago, my oldest said, "I wonder what books the Easter Bunny will bring this year?"

So in HONOR of the EASTER BUNNY I am having a giveaway. A BOOK!

The Story of the Easter Bunny by Katherine Tegen

My boys have really loved reading this book this past month. I think it has a great way of explaining how the Easter Bunny got his start. The illustrations are beautiful and you can ask leading questions about story for smaller children with the photos.

This giveaway I am doing tickets: If you leave a comment about an Easter Tradition in your family you'll get one ticket. If you also become a follower or are all ready a follower you get one more ticket!!!

This giveaway ends Friday, April 3rd @ midnight. I'll announce the lucky winner Saturday, April 4th and mail the book in time for Easter.

Winner!

Drum Roll Please......
