Just Because :o)

I seem to be MIA lately and I apologize. Things have been busy around the Pumpkin Patch! DH and I are trying to take advantage of ANY moment where it's not down pouring with rain. Sigh! Rain, rain, go away!!!! LOL!

I'm going to be away even longer because I'm expecting some visitors at any moment :o) Mom and Dad are coming today and will be here until Thursday. It looks like the weather is not going to cooperate so hopefully we can find some things to do.

That means that during this time I'll be away from the computer and therefore not answering many emails or reading Blogs. I'll have to catch up after they're gone. But never fear, I will be back to reading! I hate missing any of the action ;o) LOL!

For those of you wondering, Colleen (no Blog) was the recipient of my Springtime pillow that I did :o) I wanted to thank her for all the charts and floss that she sent me and it turned out that was the perfect gift. I'm still waiting for bunny to arrive at his/her destination. I sure he/she didn't get lost :o(

Since it's so blah out, I feel like doing a small giveaway! I have an extra copy of the January/February 2011 issue of Just Cross Stitch -

Photobucket

I didn't want to send this out to anyone just in case they already had a copy of it. So...if you would like the chance to win this, all you have to do is be a Pumpkin Stalker AND leave a message on this post only, along with a way for me to reach you if you are the winner :o) It's that simple! When Mom and Dad are gone on Thursday, I'll pick a name and announce the winner. Good luck everyone and have a great week!

Enjoy your visit.

I don't have any issues of the magazine but it may be for more experienced stitchers. If you think I'll benefit from it, please throw my name in. If not, no problem. I'm just glad I'm a pumpkin stalker ;-)

Hope you have a great time while your parents are visiting.
I'd love to be entered for a chance to win the magazine if that's ok. I can't get hold of it here in the UK so usually am only able to get the ornament issue on special order each christmas.

Julie said...

Enjoy your visit from Mom and Dad, family time is so special. I hope the weather behaves itself for you.

Jane said...

I think your rain is heading our way here in the UK - the forecast is yuk! for the next few days, perhaps our glorious sunshine is swapping with it?
Have fun with your parents, it's always nice to have a catch-up.
I'd love a chance of winning your Just Cross Stitch magazine - they're like golddust here in the UK and I see the words Plum Street Samplers on the front so that makes it even more tempting!
Enjoy the break xxx

♥ Nia said...

Please, count me in for that! :D
The week runs so fast!! Tomorrow it's Thursday already! Hope to see you back in action soon ;)
Huge hug to you!!

Lori said...

Thanks for the chance... I don't have chance to get these much anymore. Thanks for your words of encouragement in my blog. I'm sure your visitors will bring sunshine into your home when it seems to be lacking in the old maritimes lately. (I bet the mosquitos will be a pestilance when it does warm up) erg!
