Today, the 1st eco-friendly giveaway is sponsored by Tiny Prints. One lucky winner will win your choice of 50 greeting cards! Yay!

It’s time to get those holiday cards ordered – and Tiny Prints has tons of beautiful designs to choose from. I love their holiday photo cards. However, if photo cards aren’t your thing – you could choose holiday party invitations, ornaments, address labels, stocking stuffers or a beautiful calendar for 2012.

I love the bright, vibrant colors, great designs and the luxurious eco-friendly paper! What a beautiful way to say Happy Holidays to your friends and family this year! Agree?

Hello, Friends! It is officially Thanksgiving at our house. The house is sparkly clean and smells delicious, the pies are cooling on the kitchen counter-top and we are looking forward to a laid-back Thanksgiving Day. I really can’t believe that it is already Thanksgiving and a new year is just around the corner. Is it just me or is time flying by?

This year, I’m thankful for my amazing husband and fantastic son! They make being a wife and mother the most joyful part of my life. I am thankful that we found a perfect school for Eben, with teachers that are out of this world! I am also thankful that I get to wake up everyday and do what I love as my job. Thank you for stopping by everyday – I have the best readers out there!

I hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving full of friends and family. Remember to slow down and cherish the time that you share together today.

Happy Thanksgiving!
