Now lets get down to business! Here's the drawing in all it's glory! 

I was assisted by the lovely Miss SODA ICY POP!

We got all the entries ready and I could not for the life of me after a 2 hour search find the festive red top hat, so we used one of Miss soda icy pop's favorite bowls. Boy was it full thanks so much to all you wonderful friends for entering!

Next she tossed and sprinkled all the entries and made sure all had been thoroughly mixed,

then we pulled down the hat till she couldn't see and reached she did stirringly into the bowl,

And voila she pulled out a name~Ladies and gentlemen drum roll please!

AND the WINNER IS the sweet HEIDI from

The most wonderful time of the year!

Getting ready, so much to do, places to go & people to see! The winner for the 1st giveaway will be announced Saturday, YAY! Thank- you for all the great comments feed back and kind words! I apologize for not responding to each and everyone of you as I hoped but, the results have been wonderful &  overwhelming!

In the middle of all his madness I homeschool my children and 6th & 7th grade oh pre-algebra what fun! Also been doing all my orientation, paperwork & tests to volunteer at the hospital gift shop where I was born & my grandma has been volunteering for 36 years(and going strong)!  I actually got to spend a few wonderful days Christmas shopping with my daughter. mom & grandma this weekend it has been wonderful to spend time together. I can only imagine what people in the stores think of us, we like to have a good time :) 4 generations of loud laughing Italian women! This makes the horrible cross country move worth every minute of sweat & tears.

I apologize for not having much up for sale the past week had to take a breather and not neglect my family. But this weekend I will be loading up the new etsy shop so get  ready :) I will only be listing a few things now & then on eBay it has been good to me in the past but the fees, policy changes and sporadic at best sales are not working out, I at least need to break even, & you busy bees know what I'm talking about :) So etsy has been a wonderful change and I am happy to be there.
