A few weeks ago, Mary, over at Home is Where The Boat Is offered the cutest giveaway and it was all about reading, flip flops and fun in the sun, and since those are some of my favorite things I entered. Sand Pail Selections and Flip Flops! is such a colorful, fun post and I quickly fell in love with the book selections, sand castles, flip flops and of course, the sangria! Here is a photo of Mary's delightful giveaway prizes.
When my box of goodies arrived I could barely contain my excitement! I've never won anything, EVER!!
Isn't this exciting? I almost forgot to take pictures, but came to my senses before I ripped into this wonderful box of goodness!
As I gently unpacked the box taking care not to tear anything, I cherished every little item. I'm corny like that. Having never won anything before I didn't want the moment to end!
I couldn't stand it any longer, so the tissue started flying! Keeper, my Bichon, thought Mama was going crazy! She looked at me as if to say, "One more squeal and I'm outta here!" She's pretty camera shy so I told her that Mary's Bichons, Chloe and Gracie, pose all the time for pictures and are featured regularly in Mary's posts. She reluctantly gave in. Okay, I bribed her, but then she must have sniffed that a Bichon had been near the gifts, so she began to sit and pose and I went to town taking her picture. My girl will not be outdone!
I absolutely love the goodies I received! As a reader I'm always on the lookout for new and different books and the two books included, Chasing Fireflies and Amaryllis in Blueberry, are next on my reading list. This was such a wonderful gift to receive during these end of Summer days and I couldn't be more pleased.
Thank you so very much, Mary, Chloe and Gracie! We love our gifts!
Hugs,
Susan and Keeper

Hi Susan! I'm so glad Keeper approves of your Sand Pail Selections! Someone commented a while back that Chloe & Gracie were so photogenic, but I had to confess that they were "photo-vated" to pose with treats :)
Enjoy your books and happy reading to you! Hope you are staying cool in this heat!
What a great prize package, Susan! Your furbaby is adorable!
I got that mirror frame from Mirror Mates and they include everything you need to put it together and attach it to the mirror. It is actually adhesive type strips that go on the frame after you glue the sections together.
What a lovely gift! You are so lucky! You are a very lucky girl! Have a lovely week! Angie xo ps-Thanks so much for visiting me. I got the white ruffle plates at Home Sense, which is Home Goods in the US.
Congrats!!! How fun is that? Thank you so much for your kind words!!! Love Auburn, even though they are not having a great year... Sorry.

Hi Susan! Thank you so much for popping in to see me. About the little tray, I bought it at Hobby Lobby probably about 4 or so years ago.
Be a sweetie and Merry Christmas,

Susan:
What is your email? I don't see it on your blog and I want to be able to reply to your comments.
Thank you so much for your comment, particularly as I read it, a huge ton of bricks hit me that I had misspelled tulle! THANK YOU!

I love how it all came packaged in a sand pail. That's just so cute, and it's so very creative (just like Mary.) She happens to be one of my very favorite bloggers. Her blog is like eye candy!!
Congratulations!
(And btw, I loved that star spangled post below with the flags, too.)
