“I took hold of that scourge -filled ship and crushed it between my limbs, hurtling it into the second sun, the red one that gave me strength. But I was too late." Terraformer
It’s that wonderful time of year when our thoughts are turned to our blessings and our hearts turn to thankful giving. Thanksgiving is upon us and just around the corner is Christmas. Whether you celebrate these holidays or not, it is always a good time to be reminded of all the blessings we have and to give back to those we love and even those whom we may not even know.
Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest
man it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allow.
~Edward Sandford Martin
While we may get caught up in all the commercialism of the holidays with “all the presents, the ribbons, the wrappings, the tags. The tinsel, the trimmings, the trappings, and bags.”, we find moments amidst the hectic holidays to remember what this time of year is truly about.
In the spirit of GIVING, we’d like to host a contest we think is perfect for this season. Announcing the contest of the month,
Ten Reasons I’m Thankful For My Best Friend!
Here’s how the contest works:
1- Write a letter to your best friend expressing why you’re thankful for them and present it to them at some point.
2- In the comments below, write ten reasons you’re thankful for your friend (doesn’t need to be long, just one word for each reason works fine)
3- Enter Rafflecopter Below.
That’s it! Just complete the three tasks above and you’ll be entered for a chance to WIN:
A FREE SIGNED COPY OF ANY BOOK OF COLLEEN HOUCK’S TIGERS SERIES OR REAWAKENED FOR BOTH YOU AND YOUR FRIEND PLUS A BEST FRIEND SURPRISE FOR THE TWO OF YOU!
The contest will run through December 15th, just in time for Christmas!
Good luck everyone and Happy Thanksgiving!
~Till next time,

I’m Linda Louise, one of the bloggers on this website and Colleen’s little sister. I’m just a girl in her mid-thirties who feels thirteen when I play outside with my boys, fifteen when I sing my heart out listening to tunes while driving by myself, and sixty five when I go out past ten at night. I have a thing for junior mints, Mt. Dew, shrimp and kale (though not all at once) and I have a crush on Superman. I still get girlish butterflies when I read Twilight, cry when I read These is My Words, and smile from ear to ear when I read Anne of Green Gables. I have nightmares about aliens on a regular basis and I have a bad habit of midnight snacking. I love everything sports, except golf (although can that honestly be considered a sport??), and I hate anything that slithers, hisses, or stings. I have a problem with giggling at inappropriate moments and I sometimes wish life was a musical. I love science, hate math, love Dr. Seuss, and hate olives. My family is my world and my joys come from their happiness. I’ve learned I don’t know much about anything and I live for a good adventure, naps, cuddles, stories, exceptional food and The Shire.
