Kate you have the best giving spirit and the biggest heart I know.
You have so much going on and yet you always have uplifting words to keep others who are feeling down, going.
Giving from the heart will be returned to you, I just know it! :)
Merry Christmas Sweetie and Happy Holidays to all of your family.

Thank you so much for this generous shopping spree giveaway.

xoxo, tracie
Oh & yes, please enter me for the giveaway!!!
Kate, I'm so happy to hear your Lupus is under control. That nasty thing! Blessings to you this Christmas.
Christmas is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it's Christmas. What a beautiful time of year. Today our company collected and donated more toys than I expected to an organization here in Ft. Lauderdale that provides toys to homeless families who cannot afford to buy presents so that the children can open a gift that’s given to them by a loved one, not a charity. They rely entirely on donations to do this. I'm so proud of how many toys were brought into work!
Hi Kate, I'm putting in my entry for today!
I hope you're still doing well, please don't hesitate to call me if you need to talk<3
My entry for today! chedeb5353@hotmail.com
Such a sweet and generous giveaway. You truly have the spirit of Christmas! The last couple of years the most special part of the season is going to church with my family on Christmas eve. At the end of the service the whole congregation lights candls and sings together. It fills my heart with joy!
I am so happy for you and your remission....that is the best Christmas present ever. I am still endeavoring to reach remission with my cancer...working over 5 years at getting there...maybe 2012!!
Merry Christmas...I have so many wonderful Christmas memories...but I love remembering those where my Grandparents were alive and the whole family, and all the cousins got together!!
Kate,
What a generous giveaway...would love to win it:) My favorite part of the Christmas season is our Christmas Eve service at our church...we all go as a family and sing our favorite songs and celebrate the real reason for the season. Hope you and your family have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Blessings,
Linda

Oh Ms. Kate, what a WONDERFUL gift you are giving. $100. WOW. You are so gracious. I would like to share one of my favorite Christmas memories. Hopefully it will make you smile. When my oldest daughter (who now is 18 and becoming a Mommy herself) was about 4 I was decorating the tree. That year I was doing all red and white with red robins. As I was finishing the tree, my daughter came into the room and said, "Look Mommy, there's a pecker on the tree". She was meaning wood pecker. I thought I was going to pee my pants I laughed SO hard. To this day I giggle everytime I think about it. She HATES that story. Just 1 out of MANY memories I have that make me giggle. I'll share more I'm sure. Merry Christmas my dear friend ~

Ok, so I am reading your blog and looking at gorgeous pictures of 'sparkly objects' (that means anything I like). And, you keep saying Country Roads. Well in my world Country Roads is in Orange, CA, so, I am wondering where your Country Road is, and low and behold, it's in Orange, CA. I grew up in OC and lived there for, lets just say most of my life. I now live an hour away, so, I don't get to my weekly Orange circle shopping. But, I was in a few weeks ago, and I now recognize that I saw your space. Lovely things. Take care and Bless you and your family, Paula Lusk
