A Giveaway! {Giveaway Closed}

Yes, you heard that right.  Welcome to the first ever giveaway on These are the Days.  This is a special giveaway and I am honored to dedicate this to Ruby June Warburton. 

Meet Ruby.   

I love this picture.  I remember when I saw it for the first time one year ago.  I just stared in awe at that beautiful little girl.  I am still staring in awe.  I could feel her strong spirit through these images. I love the way she is staring at her mama.  It is the sweetest connection there is and my heart just broke for them.  I know that Ruby is an extremely special little angel baby and one that will  touch so many hearts.  Ruby was here on the earth for 15 cherished days.  It is her one year birthday!

Meet Kristin. 

She  is the mother of Ruby.  She amazes me.  She is such an example of strength and grace through adversity.  She is a wonderful mother to Ruby and has honored her and kept her spirit alive by sharing Ruby’s love and giving to others. 

To celebrate Ruby’s first birthday,  Kristin has put together 15 days of blog giveaways and invited family and friends to join her.  I am day 10 and so happy to be a part of this.  Each giveaway involves the color red.  It is Ruby’s signature color.  :)  To read more about Ruby on Kristin’s blog go  here.  

This is what I am giving away. 

 

Three little red birds which are Christmas ornaments but you can use them anyway you like.  They have clips on the bottom so you can easily attach them to something or just let them sit alone and make something extra pretty. 

Also this pack of 24 Zig Zag cupcake liners and toppers. 

Whether you are taking a treat to a party, surprising a neighbor or just baking for your kids at home they will make the whole process of baking and giving much more fun! 

The birthday gift Kristin and Jared wanted for Ruby was acts of service.  Big or small.  It doesn’t matter.  Just a way to think of others and show someone you care.  For one entry leave me a comment sharing an act of service you have done.  It can even be a mundane daily task.  Sometimes as mothers we don’t think much about those tasks but if you look at it from a different perspective you will probably see it is often related to service.  Go do an act of service in honor of Ruby and come back to share with me!

And since my giveaway has to do with the Christmas holiday, for two entries share with me a way you are going to make the holiday season extra special for your family.  Do you have a special tradition? Are you going to try something new?  Let me know!  I would love to hear.    

Don’t forget to leave me your e-mail address so I have a way to contact you. 

Giveaway closes on Wednesday the 24th at 11:00 p.m.  ‘cause that’s my bedtime!  I’ll close it before I go to bed and post the winner on Thursday morning! 

Have a wonderful weekend.
