the winner for the pillow is….
And one last time I voted for it.
Tammy…i emailed you at the address that you use to leave comments. (tammygilliam)
THANK YOU FOR VOTING EVERYONE.
i won second place.
not an iPad but an ipod touch.
and you know….that is pretty awesome too!
i don't know if i will listen to the Howling Bells….but maybe?
i am so excited to get it!
an iPad would have been great….but this is just as great to me.
and my kids wouldn't even think of asking to share this with me.
the iPad…they would ask everyday.
and mine would end up like Pioneer Woman's…i am sure of it.
Peanut Butter Baby won in the end.
and he was a really cute baby.
i am happy for her.
she said her husband would be using it for med school…..so that is awesome!
good for her….congrats Kierra.
you know what?
i am feeling good this morning.
i haven't even had coffee yet.
but i am feeling good….God is good….my husband rocks…my friends are fabulous….i am happy.
so how about two more winners?
and now vote # 2….you are still in 1st place girl!
vote #4 – man i hope you win!!
YAY!!!
i can't wait to make pillows for you.
i love my blog readers.
you have no idea how all your kind comments and encouraging words lift me up each day.
TODAY….
my mom is visiting today.
two bathrooms need to be deep cleaned.
i have photos to edit.
and we are having another overnight guest.
i bet you know her.
i have never met her in real life….or her family who is coming with her…and her cat and hamster.
i will tell you about it tomorrow.
but right now….i need to change the sheets, vacuum the rug and scrub a toilet so she can be comfy.
remebering Rachel's video today "i am here to serve with joy"
i forget so quickly.
i am calling on two verses today:
i always love the whatever verse. 🙂
go out today and be kind to others.
LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.
i hope that all of YOU have a wonderful day today.

Jodi - Congratulations on winning the ipod! I love Howling Bells, her voice is just mesmerizing. Gary Lightbody recomended them on either SP’s website or in his Q The Music column a while back. I downloaded radio wars and love it.
Glad you are enjoying sunny happy days with your beautiful family 🙂
Megan - meg, i totally needed to hear those two verses today. so thanks!
Janie Fox - Yay happy happy joy joy – you won an ipod touch! I am wanting one! Love your scriptures too. My favorite is always Romans 8:28 but I have several others that fall close behind. Call me a Jesus freak…I like it!
Kate @ Songs Kate Sang - Hi 🙂 Congrats… So happy for you!
Alicia - Your blog is always so fun Meg! Congrats on the ipod touch…my kiddos would take mine if I won…enjoy your new toy!
Alicia
maribeth - i hope she brings you a piece of cake!
Kirsten - Yay for 2nd!!! Just so you know…I only have a lame phone that’s about 5 years old and totally on it’s last leg. And just this morning, my 10yo said if she didn’t get a phone or ITouch, she would “die”.
Yeah…when I was a kid, I had an AM transistor radio.
Julie - Howling Bells opened for Coldplay last year. My niece downloaded some of their songs right after that – she really liked them!
Thank you for those verses!

saw this and thought of you…it came up randomly in my google reader feed. not too sure of the remainder of the site.
just realized that this totally looks like spam. hope it’s not for you…
thanks for encouraging me to use color – and for sharing your life with us on here!
Lisa - Have fun today Meg. Looking forward to reading about your antics with your ‘guest’ and her 357 children.
Meg your post today was gracious and kind. You handled the ‘nasty’ commenter so well. Glad you won something, that you came second. I am fairly sure people voted for you because they genuinely liked your photo and not because they were in to win a cushion. You photography is awesome, your blog is too. i love the read.
Now how about sending a cushion ‘down under’. Ha ha
erin stivender - sooo excited about winning…think i’ll go buy a lottery ticket now. can’t believe i got that LUCKY!
Sara Taylor - Thanks for posting the Romans 8 verse today. It was on my mind all day after being with my friend’s family who lost a nephew this week.
Also, your posts about the reading nook in your guest bedroom and your newly decorated back porch have been so inspiring to me! We just moved to an expansive Craftsman era house, and there are so many nooks to decorate. I was thinking of your porch pictures when I went to an antique mall yesterday to pick out dusty treasures for our porch/sunroom. Thanks for sharing!
Ruth - eeeeek have fun with laura… i can’t wait to read all about it. like whether she’s as short as she says! (the cat looks dangerous though)
robin - You are my favorite blog, too. So much, that I linked to you today…hope that’s ok! Thanks for passing along the positive energey about being good to neighbors. 🙂

Jill J - Romans 8:38-39 has gotten me through serious times. Every time I read it, I get the chills! Praise God that we are not responsible for our salvation! None of us would make it. 🙂
