Prizes!



For me friends, not for you.  I'm sorry :(  I have been planning a giveaway for quite some time, because I love hosting giveaways, but then I just keep buying things for myself.  How selfish.

I'll work on that.  But in the meantime...back to me :) 

Look here at the lovely prizes I've acquired in the last week!

1.  Lilly Pulitzer Market Bag (mine is a different pattern, but TRHoC gave it to me as my B-day gift bag!)


2.  Lilly Pulitzer Croakies



3.  Lilly Pulitzer Koozie



4.  Fabulous Jumpsuit!




TRHoC also gave me the most fabulous Virginia Tech watch (can't find a picture) and took us to a nice dinner.  She spoiled me ROTTEN!  And I so appreciated it :)

The next few prizes are from TEN.  I was having a terrible day on Tuesday, and he had ordered some little prizes for me...just because.  He gave them to me Tuesday evening and it put the biggest smile on my face!

5.  Life: The Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton


Because we all know that I am completely obsessed with England.  And royalty.  And Princes & Princesses.  And royal weddings of course!  I mean seriously, I have THE royal engagement ring on my finger.  Or, well....a version of it anyway :)  hehehe....

6.  Dog Bike Planter


Smalltown, VA is having a Tweed Run in the Fall.  Are you familiar?  People get on their bikes, wearing head to toe tweed, and they take a little ride around town.  Very British :) 






Anyway, we are going to participate.  And I want a little basket on the front of my bike.  Like this one:


And I want to hook Louis in there with his little harness.  Wouldn't that be splendid!  Anyway, I've told TEN about this little idea of mine, and therefore when he saw the pup on the bike with a basket, AND it was planter for my herbs, he bought it for me :)

7.  Crab in Net Oven Mitts 


We all know how much I LOVE crabs, and after the fabulous oven mitt mrs.mfc purchased me for Christmas had a bit of an accident.....well, TEN wanted to redeem himself by purchasing me these.  I absolutely adore them!!


AND THEN.....as if I haven't been spoiled enough.... 
As if I could possibly NEED anything else.... 
Well, I bought myself....... 



Ummm.... 



Well.... 



These....


8.  Tory Burch Aviator Sunglasses



Have you purchased any prizes for yourself lately?  Saving for anything special?

Omg, look at all of your goodies! How fabulous is that jumpsuit, by the way? If only I were tall and thin I could pull it off.
Love those glasses!
