Before I announce the winner, I wanted to share THIS….

Isn’t it beautiful?!!!!

We received this beautiful wreath as a gift at my mom’s visitation and funeral.

I love it on my front door.  What a blessing!

And I have been wanting to share for a long time THAT….

I won a giveaway too!

Richella over at Imparting Grace was giving away a beautiful bracelet this summer, and I won!

It was around the time that Mom got sick, and I never got around to posting about it.  But I absolutely love it and wear it all the time!

I wanted to make sure that Richella knows how grateful I am!

Richella is a beautiful person inside and out, and we have become good friends here in blogland.   She has written me many beautiful emails and comments to encourage and comfort me during my mom’s passing.  Her friendship has been a blessing from God!

She also has a beautiful blog.  She’s just posted a tour of her home.  Look at this beautiful outdoor seating area….

  So go on  by there and say “hello!”

And now for the winner of my Burlap Magnet Board…….

I want to thank all of you who entered my giveaway, and the many of you who posted about it on your blog.  You guys ROCK!

  3. Morning, Traci! And congratulations to your winners! Oh, the wreath is so gorgeous! What a sweet reminder of your mother. She would have loved this! I just found Richella's blog last night as she and I had signed up for the Hooked on Fall Home Tours! Oh, I got lost in her blog. She is a very special young lady I can tell! How nice that she has been there for you through this time.
    I'm sending some Fallness of Joy just to you, Dear One!
    You are a sweetie,
    Shelia ;)
