The Season for Gifting!
No matter how you look at the beauty of the Christmas season, it is the season for gifting. One of my favorite things to do is give gifts! I do not give gifts so that I will get gifts in return, I just genuinely love to give gifts. (is that weird?) Anyway, since I appreciate all of you that read this blog, so much, I wish I could give each and every one of you a gift. Being that I am far from being Oprah Winfrey, I can’t think of a way to accomplish that. So the closest thing I can come up with is to have a drawing for a few small gifts that I have collected this year. Some of these are things that I love and use here, so I purchased a second one for a prize. And then there is my new product line that I launched this fall. The note cards made from photos of my animals here at Timber Creek Farm, are a piece of my heart. The Photo and Quote Journal, Timber Creek Farm (Photographs, Inspirational Quotes and Rural Scenes) is a collection of some of my favorite photographs, some paired with great quotes. There’s room in the journal for you to add your own favorite thoughts or quotes, too.

Three Prizes for three of you. I wish I could do more. Each of you has been an encouragement to me, as I seek to encourage others to start a journey to greater self sufficiency. Homesteading in the modern day, is a choice. If it is a lifestyle that is calling you, I am here to lend you support, encouragement, and information.
So here’s the deal for the prizes. Bloggers aren’t allowed to ask you to like our facebook page any longer. But if you wouldn’t mind stopping by there, that would be great! If you have a facebook page yourself and feel like sharing the giveaway, even better! But no pressure.! I really don’t want you to have to do anything to enter this giveaway so I’ll make it super easy!
Leave a comment below with the following info, so I can get in touch with the winners by email. I will use Random.org to choose the three names who will win the prizes.
Easy enough? Giveaway runs Wednesday through Monday (ends midnight Monday 12/22/14 EST) I will email the winners to ask for a mailing address. If I don’t get a response by Tuesday night, I will choose another winner and contact that person by email. So please give an email that you really use and check. You must be over 18 years of age to enter and live in the United States or Canada (YES! you can enter if you live in HI or AK or Canada! I love you all!) I will mail the prizes out as soon as possible but as this is ending during Christmas week, no guarantee on Christmas delivery.
I realize that even though I would probably write, whether anyone read my work or not, it is so much more rewarding to have you all read my work and tell me your thoughts and share your lives with me. Your support of my website is a gift you give to me every time you stop by.
And whether you share my beliefs and faith or not, I wish you a feeling of peace, love and contentment this holiday season.
Let’s see what we can get into in 2015!
Merry Christmas to you all.
Janet

I wish I had thought about homesteading about 30 years ago. I just turned 70 so I am not likely to be completely self-sufficient, although, we do grow a garden every year and do a lot of canning and dehydrating. Those prizes sound really nice, maybe they should go to someone who really can use them. I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy reading your blog and emails.
Your comment is so sweet. Thank you for being part of our story and letting me know that you enjoy it. It sounds like you are doing quite a bit to be self sufficient. Every step counts! Enjoy the holidays and thank you – Janet
Please let me know if I win something. You have a lovely farm. Where is it?
