But, I thought it would be fun to do a little giveaway just for fun!!
I know it's a little early for a Christmas post (never too early in my book!) but last year these were sold out quick so I wanted to be able to give one away while they are in stock right now! I ordered this plate last year and had so much fun using it and celebrating the true reason for Christmas!
You can catch a couple of glimpses of when I used my plate for our worship breakfast last December here.
There is also a beautiful new Blessings Unlimited catalog out for Fall - you can see all the beauty here or by clicking the cover image on my sidebar.
Here are a couple of my favorite new things for Fall:
1,000 Gifts Journal featuring Ann's beautiful photography!
(There's also a family journal and calendar!)
Great is Thy Faithfulness Clock:
Love these notecards:

I know you're tired of hearing this - but please, please, please leave an e-mail address if you're using anonymous comments or have your e-mail address disabled.

Oh I just love that plate!! Congrats on reaching 2,000 posts! I'm just at 200- 2,000 seems so far away! :)
I agree, it's never too soon to talk Christmas.
Congrats on your many posts! I've enjoyed and been blessed by what you've written each day! I would love to win this plate. So very cute!
Blessings has such wonderful items!
That is really a cute plate to use to celebrate Jesus rather than ourselves, a pretty plate to enjoy!

Congratulations on 2000 posts! Love the plate so please count me in. Wishing you a delightful day.

I would love the plate. I have been a reader for sometime now, just haven't commented before (bad me). Congratulation on 2000 posts.
I always think that it is too early to talk about/prepare for Christmas, but then I'm always behind at Christmas. Maybe I need to rethink what is "too early". Thanks for the giveaway.
Your blog has been an inspiration and encouragement to me for years--as I got married and had my children, actually! :) Congratulations!!!
Monica, I have said it before, but it is worth repeating - you have been a great blessing with your blog to me. Thank you for your 2000 posts! I look forward to seeing more slices of your life and being a small part of it by reading here. Thank you for offering this fun plate!
Many blessings,

What a beautiful way to decorate! Thanks so much for the chance.
2000 posts - that is amazing, Monica - with all the other things tht you do!!
You know how I would love that Happy Birthday plate for the Happy Birthday, Jesus party!!!
Blessings
Susan
The platter is perfect!
And those notecards? I'd never use them, I'd frame them!
Thanks for the giveaway. :)
What an accomplishment! I would love to win the plate! It's so easy to get caught up and forget the real reason for the season and this would be a wonderful reminder to keep HIM as the focus!
Congratulations! Love your blog, you are an inspiration!

Congratulations on your 2000 posts!
Love your blog! Thank you for sharing your life and thoughts with us.
I play Christmas music all year...as it is my "happy music" and ofcourse worth celebrating throughout the year! I love that I found you...you who live in the south and are from CO...I live in CO and am from the south (NC)! Blessings for this Monday! (And is this part of the DaySpring branch of "stuff"...is this what you sell? If I ever sold anything, this "stuff" would be it!)
Thank you for sharing your time and God-given talents with us--your readers.
That is a nice plate, and I would love to win it. However, I put the 1000 Gifts journal on my Christmas wish list. I have been keeping my gratitudes on the paper printouts that Ann makes available each month. I plan to put them all together in a folder. But for now they are stuffed in the back of my journal. In fact, one fell on the wet cement at the pool last week. So nice to have all of our blessings written in a place of beauty.
What a beautiful way to celebrate Christmas! Count me in!

I love Blessings Unlimited! They have such beautiful stuff!
What an adorable, wonderful plate! And I'm with you - it's never to early for Christmas! It's funny that you said that today since my 4-year-old asked to watch "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" this morning, and he explained, "It's not even Christmas, but I love Christmas." :)

The Christmas plate is adorable. One of my favorite Blessings items is the Inspirational message blocks. If only they weren't so much money I'd buy one for me and one for each of my daughters.
Congrats on your new blog milestone. You're a blessing.

Maybe it's just my computer/browser, but whenever I read your posts, the letter "m" is missing throughout. Did something happen to your "m" key?
