i never win anything...except when i do

So I have this whole blog post written up about tithing. And when I say written up, I mean that I've been working on it for a few weeks now. Because I DO want to talk about tithing. It's been on my heart a lot this year, and as Christmas comes around, I've been thinking even more about money and material things and all that.

But I am just going to forget that for a second and talk about how freaking lucky I've been this week! I won not one, not two, but THREE blog giveaways. Amazingsauce, no?

1. A Starbucks gift card
2. A handstamped initial necklace from Danique Jewelry
3. A druzy necklace from HFinn

And yes. Thank you, I DO realize the irony in me prefacing a post where I talk about the stuff I've won by telling you how I have been thinking about materialism. I don't claim to make any sense.

I don't even know what's happening. For so long I've been all "I never win anything." And now I'm exploding with free stuff. And by "I never win anything," I mean there was also this time I won a cruise. And another time when I won signed Cat Cora cookbook. And that other time I won a Christmas wreath. 
So I guess I win stuff sometimes. 
Don't hate me.

Anyhoo, there's really no good way to end this except to say that I'm giving away a pair of earrings so YOU can have the chance to win something. Just leave a blog post comment HERE. Easy peasy. You only have one day left to enter! 

Also, here are a few pictures from a few family sessions I've had recently. I'm showing them to you because A) I'm proud of them and B) I don't really have anywhere else to put them. This is my blog and I do what I want. 

P.S. Did you know I got a Twitter? Follow me if you like marginally interesting tweets from my office desk.

Check back later this week for a post on tithing. I'm going to need a dose of reality after all this winning.
