A "You Choose" Giveaway!

My 20 year reunion is coming up in the next couple of years.  I'm not sure I'm ready.  Alright.  It is next month---! I am incredibly excited to go home.  Here and there my vanity gets the best of me and I wish I looked more like the 18 year old who drove out of Valdez, Alaska - minus the 6 inch tall bangs, cut off jean shorts, and blue eyeliner - but mostly I'm just really, really excited.  Sometimes I cry because I'm so excited.  I. Know. That. Place.  You know how everything just seems right in the place you really, really know?  That is Valdez to me.  I know the rocks.  I know the trees.  I know the bugs.  (Thank God there aren't as many up there...)  I've never really felt the same anywhere else, and I'm so glad I get a short little hug from my home.  And even more I'm happy I get to spend a little time with my dear friends I started this life with.

I'm so excited I'm going to do another giveaway. This time YOU choose what you want. YOU choose whether it is for you or your babes. Win this one and we'll send you a $40 gift certificate to use as you wish!!  You could get this adorable Hatched Egg'rs Melville Elephant Chair for FREE:
Or only pay $10 for these super cool WallCandyArts Dyno-MITE Removable Wall Decals:
Or, you can splurge and get $40 off of this ducduc Parker Playtable with Paper Roll!! 
Or if your week has been like mine, maybe you will choose a new Blomus Lounge Shaker (mine is bent and leaks with every pour) for after the kids go down.
 mmmmm.... cocktails.

  3. Yay! Another giveaway! And your post made me nostalgic for the city that I was so happy to move out of when I was 18! I still feel like that 18 year old most days! Where did the time go?
