We've got a winner!

Oh, my! What a long day. Woke up early, worked worked worked, and just got home from a planning commission meeting about a half hour ago at 9:30! And I still have a story to finish and facts to check...

But first, the time has finally come to announce my giveaway winner! I know you guys have been waiting all. day. long. just wondering who it is, right? I sure have!

I did the drawing the old fashioned way-- I wrote each name on a slip of paper, folded them up and put them in a hat, er, plastic sorority cup. Same difference. The boy did the picking.

And the winner is...

Drum roll please...

Tracy from Res ipsa loquitur!

(Remember Tracy? I recently met her at my first blogger meet up!)

Congrats, Tracy! You will be receiving a lovely calendar, cute jotter and pretty bracelet! Lucky girl!

And because I couldn't just pick one name, I decided to have a runner up. I know, color me generous.

Let's pick again.

Drum roll please... (you know you love it)

It's Amber from Girl With The Red Hair!

(Fun fact: Amber was my very first commenter! Yay!)

Amber, you will be receiving a special little surprise in the mail. Hint: it's from photographer Gabrielle Kai. If you liked the calendar, you'll love what I'm sending you!

Congrats again to the winners! Send me an email (carissanicole {at} gmail.com) with your address so I can send off your prizes post-haste!

And thanks to everyone for playing along and celebrating my one-year blogiversary. I was so glad to see some new commenters join in on the fun-- I love discovering new blogs! (If I haven't popped over to say hello yet, I will be soon.)

Good night,
