There it is everyone! The contest will end Friday night at 8pm. August 14, 2009. I will reveal the winner first thing Monday morning. It would be sooner but as I mentioned before, I won't have access to a computer because I will be at the Rich Mountain Association.





There might be a surprise giveaway to a random participant so enter even if the time is about up.

Time for a giveway!

It took me a lot longer to earn 130 Swagbucks than I thought it would but it is done. I have completed my goal which means......








A Giveaway!!






The winner will receive a $10 gift card to Starbucks. I really wanted the $20 dollar gift card to Target but as often as I search things that would still take me forever.


So Starbucks it is.

I didn't want to make it too easy for you and I always love when The Pioneer Woman has The Smartypants Quizzes so I think I am going to do something similar to that. It will take me a while to come up with all the questions so check back later in the day. See you then!
