My Favorite Things *Giveaway!*
I am so grateful for this community of blog readers! You all encourage me, bless me, and humble me just by reading, not to mention the comments and emails I’ve received over the past year.
So, in an effort to say… “thank you!” I’ve put together a fun giveaway of a few things that I feel represent me.
I figured, if I love these things, maybe my readers will love them too! I hope you do! Please take a minute to enter the giveaway below and know that YOU ARE APPRECIATED.
Although this giveaway is not sponsored, I chose products by DaySpring because I love their store! Everything they do is just beautiful, and more importantly, it resonates with God’s eternal truths. That matters to me.
Jesus Calling —This is probably my favorite devotional. It takes me to a deep place of meeting with God in just a few sentences. I can’t think of anything in my day I value more than intimate time of devotion with God. You will be blessed by this… guaranteed.
*True story: I was introduced to this devotion through an amazing mom’s group at church. We all grew spiritual through a special season of reading this devotion and then coming together to share weekly.
Coffee Mug –Coffee is the second most valued part of my day. Okay, so maybe my husband, kids and friends are second, but coffee is a close third! 🙂 I particularly love the shape and look of this mug. I hope you will too.
*True story: my husband despises coffee. Wa-wa.
Journal —I have always been a journaler. This helps me think and process. Writing is a big part of how I connect with God. You should try it! I love the colors of this journal and the bits of scripture at the bottom of each page. That makes me happy.
*True story: I started journaling my time with God when I was 15 years old and have never stopped! I’ve kept each of the journals I’ve filled. Those are now such a special chronicle of my journey!
Necklace —I’m including this necklace because… I just really like it! It fits my style, and I love the message behind its design (Isaiah 60:20 is inscribed on the back). What a message of hope and sustenance! Since I’m not at a place to spend $50 on myself, I’ll spend it on you instead!
*True story: I used to have a cheap version of a similar necklace. I think I paid $1.50 for it, and it was not nearly so pretty. I wore it a lot… until it broke and got lost. I still miss that necklace, so this part of the giveaway is really more of a tribute.
Altogether, this giveaway is worth over $100! Woohoo! Enter below!

I am so grateful. This is such a blessing and I am using Jesus Calling everyday and my the mug!
Yay!!! That makes me happy. 🙂 Thanks for stopping back by Wendy!
Some of my favorite things are the son’s kisses (they are rare and ever so sweet), devotions with my husband, and the beach 🙂
That’s sweet. 🙂
My favorite things, in this order, are God, my family, and my coffee! I’ve really enjoyed your blog.
Yes! I absolutely agree!
My favorites include reading (!!!), my sweet hubby and our darling daughter, our 16 yr old calico kitty, my fellow mom friends, the colors aqua, teal, turquoise, indigo and many other shades of blue…I also love many kinds of music, real hugs, big laughter, babies and kids of all ages, elderly people, teaching, learning, cooking, eating, drinking water from our wonderful Berkey water filter…I could go on and on. One of the most special things that happened to me this month was that Jesus answered our prayers and those of many other faithful friends and family when He healed me from Lyme disease after only a year and a half of treatment (all herbal and no antibiotics!!). Praise Him – He is awesome!
I love drinking tea, fall weather, playing piano, spending time with my husband and feeling our baby boy kicking!! (4 months pregnant with our first child! :D)
Ooh I love it. I need that devotional. Thanks for the awesome contest.
Although I will turn 60 next month, I am realizing that it isn’t things that make me happy. I have always thought “stuff” would do it .. the more the better. Thanks for showing us there is a better way.
That is soooo true Diane. Thanks for sharing!

I love all of your favorites, especially the necklace! I’m enjoying my lovely fall scented candle that I light in the morning or while cleaning. It’s “Apple Pumpkin” and smells wonderful! Have a great day!!!
I LOVE fall candle scents. I need to get a new one for this year! Apple Pumpkin sounds delightful!
Some of my favorite things – sunshine, waffles with too much butter and maple syrup, cat cuddles (no babies yet), long walks in the forest with my husband.
Thanks for such a great giveaway!

I love books, scentsy, and reading.
My favorite coffee is Dunkin Donuts. My favorite makeup is BareMinerals. I love shoes of all types 🙂
Dunkin Donuts is mostly my favorite coffee too! I say mostly because I have a few Starbucks blends I like and one called Rocket Fuel!
My favorite coffee mug is my Disney “Mrs.” mug. A friend of mine sent the set to us as our wedding gift. My husband and I love using these mugs. They are nice and big for our morning coffee.
That is so cute! We have Mr. and Mrs. towels someone embroidered for us. It’s just fun. 🙂
I love your website; it’s so inspiring! 🙂 You (in a a way) and I are going to simplify my house this fall (news to you, I guess! lol) Thanks!
Awesome! Thank you so much Shannon!
I love great smelling candles and soft throw blankets 🙂 Love your favorite things and am also especially interested in the devotional. I heard such great things!
My favorite things are owls, red lipstick, and scarves.
Right now a few of my favorite things include AHAVA mineral hand lotion, the show Playing House and summer sweet corn!
We are such big sweet corn fans around here. That’s fun to hear!
Some of my favorite things include iced coffee, chocolate, and board games.
Awesome!
Snickers, my daughter, and walks
Walks are one of life’s true simple pleasures… not to mention children!
This is a great give away! Love the necklace.
Awesome!
Hi Katie, believe it or not some of my favorite things are just the things you mentioned above….I am a bible reading, coffee drinking scripture journaling kind of girl. And what girl doesn’t like jewelry. 🙂 Great giveaway and thanks for the chance to participate.
Blessings,
Cindy
It’s so fun to meet people with the same passions. Thanks for commenting!!
Currently time with our almost 1 year old before the new baby comes in February, First 5 app that wakes me up and has a short devotional, hot tea, the last days of swimming, and as much as I complain at times the crazy Missouri weather where it’s cool one day and hot the next.
Interesting… I’ve not heard of the First 5 app. That sounds fantastic! I will check it out! Many blessings to your growing family!

Yes! I am getting so excited for fall!
I would have to say homemade spiced apple rings and ColorNote note pad app are a couple of my faves.
Mmmmm… apple rings sound delish!
Currently hot chocolate, apple crumble, the autumnal nip in the air and having all my chicks under one roof
So sweet!
Oh they are all just so pretty!! I absolutely love all things floral, like that journal! Vintage-y kitchen things are some of my favorites too.
