Hoot! Hoot!

Lisa at 5 Orange Potatoes makes THE cutest little critters I have ever seen. She is a homeschool Momma with her own Etsy shop where she sells these cuties. I have been following her blog for some time now and what an awesome blog it is!! I have gotten so many ideas and learned so much from her. A while back she had a giveaway and Princess and I won!!

Check out our Hootenanny! Isn't she so cute?! She came in a fabric bag with a tag listing everything about her. Her favorite colors are pink & purple. She loves Star Wars, wants a set of drums to play music for her Hootenanny family, and loves to be a Princess. Go figure!! She is the perfect Hootenanny for our Princess! ;) Head on over to Lisa's blog and check out her Etsy shop, too! Thanks so much Lisa! Princess LOVES her little Hootenanny and has incorporated it into her imaginitive play.

The Rewards of Competition - HOTB Style

I wish you could have seen the look of excitement on my face when this package arrived in the mail from Rachel at A Reservation For Six. Rachel is our beautiful sponsor for the Hair of the Blog Contest. Although I was not the winner, Rachel was kind enough to send a consolation prize...and what a consolation prize it is. This is the perfect gift for the woman who needs a shave. Rachel, how did you ever know?!

Momma Bear was the winner, but we have yet to find out what her Grand Prize was. Kelly at Heathen Family Revival came in second and shared her prize with us. Aliceson at Feet Off the Table received her consolation prize as well. Melanie at What's Happening Mallons? competed, but we're all waiting to see what her consolation prize was.

So, Momma Bear & Melanie... tap, tap, tap ...we're waiting. Patiently... tap, tap, tap ...really, there's no rush... tap, tap, tap ....any time now... tap, tap, tap. OH, COME ON ALREADY! Oops sorry... I really can be patient. tap, tap, tap

Ooh...did you want to see what was inside my package?

My amazing, one of a kind, original, unique and oh so special consolation prize.

Are you ready?

It's really exciting...

I bet you can't wait to see it.

It's really cool!

You've never seen anything like it.

Well, maybe you have.

I guess maybe it's not so one of a kind.

And maybe it's not so cool.

It is pretty special...

Well, maybe not.



It's just perfect for me.

And it's MINE all MINE!

Well, without further ado...

Here it is!

Thanks Rachel!!! How did you ever know?!
