***giveaway has now ended***
Yay!! It's my 100th post! I wanted to wait until tomorrow to post this, but I was way too excited! I started noticing a little while ago that lots of people did something special on their 100th post. It seemed like most people either had a giveaway, or a list of 100 things about themselves. Knowing that none of you were really that interested in learning 100 random things about me, I decided to do a giveaway! I considered a gift card, a book, or maybe something handmade. A gift card is so impersonal, though, and who knows if you would like the same books I like. And really, who wants something that I've made? (except you, mom!) Instead, I thought about one of my absolute favorite things. It is handmade, just not by these hands. How would you like to win something made by Lisa Leonard's hands??? That's right...Lisa Leonard has so graciously offered to host a giveaway here! One very lucky reader will win an Original Necklace, just like this one...personalized just for you! If you've never seen her handmade jewelry, you've got to go check it out. She has lots of different designs, and each one is so unique and beautiful! I get compliments on my necklace every time I wear it. I've been stopped by random strangers (even the Sonic carhop!), asking me where I got mine. My girls love it, too, and think it's pretty neat that I have a necklace with their names on it.
Now, here is your chance to get your very own. Just leave a comment here before Monday at midnight CST telling me what you are most thankful for. Don't forget to leave your e-mail address so I can contact you if you win! That's all you have to do! I'll post the winner first thing Tuesday morning. And while you're waiting to see if you've won, pop on over to Lisa's website, take a look at the rest of her amazing pieces, and check out her blog. You could even do some Christmas shopping while you're there. Who wouldn't want to find something from Lisa Leonard Designs under the tree?
So go ahead...start commenting!

I'm most thankful for my family!
Congrats on the 100th post! I have loved every one of them. Of course I am thankful for my family, but I am also thankful for my "extended family" of friends that are my support group with family living so far away. And I'm not just saying that to butter you up so you will pick me. But, maybe it helps?! :)
I am most thankful for my salvation and my beautiful family.

Thank you to Lisa for donating a necklace.
Congratulations on your 100th post! What a wonderful way to celebrate with a giveaway! That is very thoughtful of you. The necklace is beautiful and would look so great with Bryce and Drew on it! :)
What I am most thankful for...that Jesus died on the cross for my sins! That I know I will spend eternity in heaven. And of course, I am thankful that he gave me twin boys!
I am most thankful for the health of my family and friends! As I get older, and my parents get older, I realize how precious good health is and can change in an instant.

I am most thankful for my beautiful, smart, funny, sweet, and rambunctious son, Brooks. He turns two today! I can't believe that I've been blessed by his sweet face for two whole years! I'm so thankful for each new thing he learns every day. He is truly amazing. I'm also thankful that we are anxiously awaiting a new baby in April! What blessings will our next child bring? I can't wait to see! Leslie, thanks for this opportunity. I hope your family has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I'm thankful you're going to pick me as the winner of the necklace!
I'm also thankful to have such an awesome, forgiving God, a great husband (who thankfully is forgiving, too!) and precious 10 month old boy, who, when he realizes that he is the firstborn and thus the guinea pig in our parenting experiment, will be forgiving too!!

I'm thankful for my family, my friends, and pumpkin pie, muffins, bread... :)
I am thankful that God loves us and sent his Son for us and I'm thankful that my kids' are learning that at a young age.
We've had a hard couple of weeks lately with deaths in the family and a recent diagnosis of cancer for my Papa Jack, but through it all my family has been right there to help support each other. I am thankful for the man I call Papa Jack because even though he's technically a stepgrandpa - he's my grandpa... He never saw me or my brothers as different grandkids or anything.
I am thankful for a family that pulls together ALWAYS - even though we drive each other nuts! I am thankful for a supportive husband and fantastic kids.
I'm also thankful that I have good friends who will load up and go see New Kids On The Block with me! ;)

In Belgium we don't really celebrate thanksgiving, but I'm grateful for a lot of things...
I am most thankful for living in a peaceful part of the world, with enough money to buy food and clothing, where most people treat girls respectfully and don't see them as throw away sex slaves. I'm very grateful that I can walk around on my own without having to fear for my life, that I have close friends who care for me, that I am valued as a human being.
After reading about all the atrocities women in Congo have to suffer, I am convinced that being able to feel safe and loved is the most important thing to be grateful for... So much more important than being rich or popular.
