My 100th Post





Hello dear bloggy friends~
Would you believe this is my 100th post? Yesterday I treated all my bloggy friends to my Snowflake Award and today I'm going to tell you about my Give -Away in celebration of my 100th post.
I cannot believe that I've posted one hundred already! Either I love to talk or I just have a lot to share; I don't know which. Ordinarily, I'm a very quiet person.
In any case, next week I will be posting about my Give-Away and I will show you the items I will be giving away. There will be a few rules you will have to follow in order to enter the Give-Away, so stay tuned.
In the meantime, enjoy this day and remember to give thanks for all the blessings the Lord has poured out upon you!
Hugs~ Sandi
"I will praise You, O Lord, with all my heart;
I will tell of all Your wonders.
I will be glad and rejoice in You;
I will sing praise to your Name, O Most High"- Psalms 9:1-2

A Special Award to All My Bloggy Friends

"The Snowflake Award"

Good Morning and Blessings from me to you~

When I started my blog in October, I had no idea how many wonderful bloggy friends would come by to visit.
You have been so kind, and encouraged me in so many ways that I wanted to express my appreciation to each one of you.
I wanted something unique to share with you and so I created this award for this very special occasion~ my 99th post!
The "You're one-of-a-kind" Snowflake Award came about like this:
One time I was in a church group where we played a game and we were to give each other a gift that would speak of our feelings toward one another. My gift was from a long time friend.... It was a snowflake!
My friend went on to tell me why I was being given the snowflake, and I was so touched by the sentiment~
A snowflake is exquisite, and there is only one like it. It is one of God's most beautiful creations; just like you!
So, I thought a snowflake would symbolize how I feel about each one of you.
If you are one of my followers, or you are on my list of Favourite Bloggers, or if you have been by to visit and you really enjoyed my blog, please take this Snowflake Award and post it on your blog. All I ask is that you let me know you have received my gift.
Thank you for making me feel welcome and my blogging experience so enjoyable!
God bless each and every one of you!
Big Hugs~ Sandi
