Celebrate with Me in October and Enter to Win $100 Cash


We made it to October and I want to celebrate it with you! October is always a fun month for me.  It starts with my birthday and includes trips to the pumpkin patch, corn maze and eating plenty of chocolate! This year feels different because we won't have some of our standard Halloween activities, but between the kids' sports activities and fall fun still available we are going to keep busy and keep pushing through the year! 




On my wish list this year are Disney gift cards, a new Ring Video doorbell, a new yoga mat, the 23 and Me Ancestry test,  Chukar Honey Pecans and lots of books. I have made it a tradition to celebrate my birthday month with all of you and we are going to do it again this year! As a thank you for stopping by and reading I'm personally sponsoring a cash giveaway so that you can put it towards something on your own wish list.




The Giveaway:  One lucky reader will win $100 cash via PayPal!  Enter using the rafflecopter form below.  The giveaway will end on October 31st.  Be sure to stop by daily to collect your extra entries.  Good luck and thanks for stopping by!
