Peaceful Happy Girl Giveaway (Now Over)



Peaceful Happy Girl Giveaway

As promised here is the Peaceful Happy Girl giveaway! I had said once I reached 1000 likes on my MarksvilleandMe facebook page I would put up my next giveaway. I reached it and said I would put it up after Halloween which I have but a lot later then I had planned. 

As always I am thankful to all of my family, friends, and fellow bloggers for all of your support along the way. Giveaways are something I can do to show my gratitude for everything we have accomplished. I will have another give away when I reach 5000 likes on my facebook page, and that one will be called the Super Energetic Boy Giveaway, so make sure to keep coming back to see what other surprises I might have. You just never know what Marksville might be up too.

I just might have to take a chance on this one. As a little girl I had tons of purses, but once I became a mom, most of my money went on the kids and buying a pretty purse for myself, well I just never got around to is until recently well in the last year anyways my husband  had me pick out a new purse and wallet, ever since I have kept my eyes peeled for a great purse for the right price. Winning one for free fits the bill perfectly.

MarksvilleandMe wishes everyone who enters Good Luck!

30 days of Thankfullness.

I know many people were posting things daily, but I like to see mine all in one place so here goes.

1. I am ever thankful to have God in my life, while never running out of things to thank him for. He continues to bless me each and every day.
2. I am thankful for my husband, who has been by my side each and everyday for the last 24 years.
3. I am thankful for my 6 children. Buke (Dennis III), Samantha, Bryan, Dennise, Deanna, and Dorothy. They have made me the Mom I am today.
4. I am thankful for my Grand daughter Lilly, and my soon to be born Grand daughter Alaina-Faith,I look forward to everyday that I can spend with them.
5. I am thankful for every day that God  gives me to spend with my family and friends.
6. I am thankful for the ability to adapt to the changes that have come my way throughout my life.
7. I am thankful for a roof over my head, food to eat, and clothes to wear.
8. I am thankful for the big forgiving, loving heart that God gave me.
9. I am thankful for the parents God placed in my life who loved me with unconditional love, and raised me to always do the best I can, while always being myself.
10. I am thankful to my mother-in-law who raised one child to be hardworking, strong, stubborn, supportive, and independent, . Someone who I will spend the rest of my life with, and proud to call my husband.
11. I am thankful to all of my friends far and near for all of the support you have given me throughout the years. You all hold a special place in my heart.
12. I am thankful for all of my brothers and sisters from both my Bio family and my adoptive family.
13. I am thankful for the curiosity to learn something new each day.
14. I am thankful for everyone who has come into my life, good or bad, they have all added to my life in different ways.

18. I am thankful that I know how to use coupons, rebates, as well as online activities that have helped us provide for our family.
19. I am thankful the morning that my husband's job called to say he got hurt they were not calling to tell me he died, and that even though it is almost a year since his accident,  he is learning to walk again, and is alive and well to be here with us.
20. I am thankful that even though I am proud of my children, God has kept me humble.
21. I am thankful for the reminders to slow life down and enjoy every minute I have here on Earth. Life is too short to waste your time hating others, or causing problems where there are none. You never know what tomorrow may bring.

27. I am thankful for my daughter Dennise for always filling our house with music, and being herself, which most people can't seem to ever accomplish.
28. I am thankful for Deanna who has always kept us on our toes, and teaches us everyday to not take the little things for granted in our life.
29. I am thankful for my youngest child Dorothy, for always wanting to snuggle and the endless hugs that she gives.
30. I am very thankful for November 30th, 2013 when my brakes stopped working when I was on my way to my daughter's baby shower, and Midas being full fit me in and not only fixed my van, but worked past when they were open just so they could make sure that me and my family could get home safe and sound.
