And the winner is...

Lindsey, from Tennessee, is the winner in my very first blog giveaway!  She just scored a $150 shopping spree to Country Outfitter, an online western wear retailer.  This is a company based in Fayetteville, Arkansas, just down the road from me. Lindsey can use the money for anything from boots, belts and handbags to any other kind of apparel on the website.  Someone in her house is sure to have a merry Christmas this year!  Congratulations Lindsey, and thank you to everyone who played along and entered the contest.

Stay tuned to the blog for your chance to win a new giveaway coming up in a couple of weeks, from another great Arkansas-based company.

It's Finally Time....Boots!

I'm so glad that it's finally my turn to give away some boots! If you have been paying any attention at all, you've seen many giveaways just like mine all over Facebook and Twitter.  I got this awesome pair of boots for attending the Arkansas Women Bloggers conference.  And one of my blog readers will now have the chance to win a $150 shopping spree to spend with Country Outfitter on the boots of your choosing! If you are not into boots, just take a look at all the other fantastic items they sell, including apparel, handbags and belts.  Also keep in mind that we are coming up on the holiday season and boots make a great gift for someone special.

I have these Ariat boots in Brown Oiled Rowdy and I LOVE THEM! They are so comfy and versatile.  

So, let's get to it!  How do you enter to WIN the $150 shopping spree from Country Outfitter? It's just two easy steps.

Step 1:  You MUST click on THIS LINK and submit your e-mail address to Country Outfitter.  You may receive some e-mails and special offers from them at a later date.

Step 2:  Leave me a COMMENT here on my blog to let me know that you completed Step 1.  This will also  let everyone else know what kind of competition they are up against.  ; )

Deadline to enter this contest is Friday, November 16 at Noon (Central).  A winner will be chosen at random and announced the following week.  Good luck--I wish everyone could win!  

Disclosure:  Country Outfitter, a retailer of Ariat boots, gave me these boots to review.  I did not receive any  monetary payment for my participation in this giveaway.  I actually own and wear these boots, and my opinion is my own.

Have I told you lately?

Have I told you lately that.....I will be doing a sweet giveaway for FREE BOOTS from Country Outfitter?  I know it's been a while since I mentioned it here on the blog, but if you've been on Facebook at all over the last month, you have seen a flurry of links to giveaways out there in internet world. 

As you may remember, I got my free pair of boots when I attended the Arkansas Women Bloggers conference at the end of August.  Because Country Outfitter is such a progressive company, in touch with how we communicate in new media, they are also providing the bloggers with a $150 gift card to give away on our own blogs.  

 

No, it's not time for my giveaway. Sorry to be a tease, but I just wanted to show them off to everyone.  And, for all those who keep asking me, you can all get the same answer at once.

 

 

Check out the fantastic boots that I chose.  They are made by Ariat.  I. love. them.

Seriously, I've never owned cowboy boots before, so I didn't know what to expect.  I've worn them several times already, and I swear I'm not lying, they are very comfortable--and pretty!  "These are the tennis shoes of cowboy boots," said Evolved Mommy, when I picked up the boots at the Country Outfitter warehouse.  She was right!  I wore them on my recent trip to Nashville.  Right? I had to wear them to Nashville!  Even hustling through airports, the boots did not slow me down.  And I'm pretty sure I saw people admiring their awesomeness more than once.  Or maybe I had toilet paper hanging out my pants? I'll assume it was the boots. 

As you can see, even Big Sis and Fergie approve.  I'm sure the next pair I get will have to be in Mini Me's size 10 1/2.  Keep watching here for info on the big giveaway.  Hint:  it will be the perfect time to score a great Christmas gift for yourself or someone on your list.  I won't let you miss it!!
