Thank you Karen Blaha for the use of your photo.
Well, I totally missed announcing the winner last Friday because I was wrapped up with my granddaughter’s birth! We got the call Thursday at noonish, packed quickly, and drove the five hours to be with her. She labored all that night, and little Brooklyn arrived at 7:32 Friday morning…after about 33 hours of labor. I felt like a truck had dragged me along the street, then ran over me a couple of times. I imagine my daughter and her husband felt about like that, too. I crashed early Friday night.
And then house hunting began…because we are moving near here. Everything surrounding the move has been rather sudden, and we are hoping to move in January if we can find a place by then.
I also didn’t have internet for the first few days here. We were supposed to head home today, but the weather turned nasty, and we can’t make the five hour drive through ice and snow safely. Wiser to stay.
But now I have a chance to announce the winner! So, I’m writing the two names on paper, swirling them around and having one of my kids draw the name. Drumroll…
Well, that took a few minutes because two of them wrestled for the opportunity. I had them pick a number, and finally got my draw-er. So without further ado, our winner is…
Congratulations, Kym!! Watch for an email from me verifying your email address.
Thank you everyone for participating, and for your patience over a couple of bumps along the way.

Hey there, I found you via the NaBloPoMo blogroll.
As part of NaBloPoMo I try to comment on as many participating blogs as I can, and I am also adding participating blogs to my feed reader. So I’m just dropping by to let you know I’ve added your blog to my feedreader, whenever you publish a post I will see it. 🙂
I have created three bundles on Inoreader so that bloggers can easily visit other participating NaBloPoMo bloggers which you can find here –

I also have a link up going at my place so my readers can find participating blogs which you are more than welcome to add your blog link to.
Looking forward to seeing your posts. You may see me drop by again during November, but it might be December before I finish my first drop by to blogs if I don’t get faster at leaving comments. 🙂
Happy NaBloPoMo to you!
