Briar Hat GIVEAWAY and Some Pictures of Our Little Pocahontas

Guess what?
We are hosting another giveaway and this time it is for one of our Briar Children's Hats!!!!
At the end of this post we will tell you how you can win it!


On another note, it is NOVEMBER!!!! I am so excited. I love November and the official start of the holiday season. Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and then Lillie's birthday and then Christmas! Ahhhh! I can barely contain myself. I wish I could hit a slow-motion button right now so these next two months could slooooooowly go by!!!!!

Here is a quote from one of my favorite childhood books: (Oh and by the way, I am hoping to have the Anne of Green Gables thermal along with a few other new thermals for sale by this evening!)
 
If today is officially November, then that, of course means last night was Halloween. We dressed Lillie up as Pocahontas and took her over to Coach and Mrs. Shaver's neighborhood to go trick-or-treating. It took her a little while to warm up to the idea but once we got going she seemed to like adding all the candy to her little bucket! Here she is right before we plopped her in the car to head over to the Shaver's.





Here she is with Coach Shaver helping hand out the candy and eating some herself (she's got a blue M&M tongue in the second photo).

Oh - and Lillie put the face paint on herself (I had to clean up the smudges a bit) so that is why the lines are REALLY far apart =)

Dana, Jon and I all passed on the costumes but Jamie (who was by far the most excited about going trick-or-treating) and Josh got dressed up as a hunter and a deer.


Okay, so enough on Halloween and on to the Giveaway!

Here are some pictures of Lillie wearing the Briar Hat:

Always nice to bring in a touch of red as the fabric of this seat here.

Using slip covers for your seats, you can change the color of the fabric every season!

Bringing in wood paneling, you definitely choose for the most warmest interiors.

The Winner of the Thermal Is... (and Some Pictures of the Miss Lillabel)

It has been a busy week here! My brother Jason was here last weekend and my sister Jamie and her husband Josh are here now visiting us. Jon's Aunt Nancy and Uncle Rex were also visiting Williamsburg this past week with their friends Debbie and Lloyd and we got to see them several times. Lillie had soooo much fun with "Unka" and it was so nice getting to see the Bennetts! I was awful with my camera again and didn't get any pictures of Jason's visit or Nancy and Rex =(. I did finally pull my camera out this afternoon, though, and got some pictures of Lillie playing out on the green in front of the Governor's Palace in Colonial Williamsburg.

Here's Miss Lillabel wearing our Hadley Hat that is now available with a flower clip and our Thermal Fairyland Silhouette Shirt

What an arm! Haha!

I hope you all have a most wonderful weekend!
