and the winner is....




Dena!
Gracie!
Rubyellen!
Cheryl!

You might be wondering why there are 4 winners instead of just 2 (like I had originally posted).

Well it's because there were so many lovely comments (114 to be exact!) about what you were all thankful for, it was so hard to choose just 2 winners, so I decided to make 2 more necklaces!

So, my hubby chose one: Gracie (He actually asked me if he could help pick a winner, and he told me he thoroughly enjoyed reading each and every comment!) who said:
I'm thankful for having fun in Ikea with my hubby. We love going there just to check out the displays and we like 'riding' the trollies.

Such a lovely giveaway


I chose one: Dena who said:
Oh my the necklace is so stunning and so is your little one.

I am grateful for having my health, something we take for granted so often. A friend of mine was diagnosed with MS last year and since hear life has turned upside down. being by her side and watching her go through this, having to giving up on her dreams of having a family and the future has been a heart breaking experience. it has made me realize that we truly take our health for granted...until something happens to us. So every day I am going to be grateful for feeling well when I wake up, for being able to live an active life together with my loved ones.

And Zoe got to pick a name out of the bowl: Rubyellen who said:
i am thankful for my friends via blog world!!! those items are just lovely!

And of course Pia got to pick a name out of the bowl as well: Cheryl who said:
I'm thankful for all my fellow mom bloggers. So many of them are stay at home (or work at home) moms like myself. I had a really hard time transistioning but with their support and encouragement they've made my adjustment alot easier.

Thank you for the lovely giveaway Jozen!

And I can't forget about the first 10 people to leave a comment ( I have also decided to send hair pins to 15 people instead of 10!) I will be contacting you all shortly for your mailing address.

I had a lot of fun hosting this giveaway (and I hope you all had fun too). It was so much fun that I will have another one again soon!!

Thanks Everyone :)

P.S. If any of my bloggy friends are interested in having me host a giveaway for them, please email me at jozpascual(at)hotmail(dot)com. I would be more than happy to!!
