Today The Benner Daily is hosting our first sponsor giveaway!! How fun!

I am sure you have all heard of Vanessa. Her blog, V & Co., is fabulous! Much inspiration there! Her's is one blog that I love reading. When I see she has written a new blog post that pops up in my Google Reader, it's one of the first ones I click on.

She and I have found out that we have lots in common. Besides our love for sewing, we also share a love of reading. The reading of Teen Fiction, that is. :) It's so much fun to connect with people that love teen fiction as I do. We talk about books we like, books we recommend, and the different scenes in said books. Our latest book talk has been about the Vampire Academy series. I got the 4th book in the series when it was released [yesterday] and I finished it today. Waiting for her to finish it, so we can talk about it. ;) ha ha!

Anyway. Vanessa is a super sweat gal with a super huge talent. And she lives in the Cuntry ya'll. There are cows right by her house. She has blogged about them before. Funny stuff!

OK! I will get on with it, and stop musing. ;)

Vanessa owns an Etsy shop called, V & Co. and Uptown Jane. She sells some great stuff in there! Want to know how generous she is? Dang! You're all going to love this!! The winner gets FOUR things!! Ready for it?

90 Days

Scroll down or click here for this week's giveaway.

As I said before, I began P90X day before yesterday. I can barely walk and can barely stand for a long amount of time, because my muscles are so sore! My muscles have pretty much been dormant for over a year, and I am now shaking them awake in a big way! ha ha!

The program is 90 days... so, but Thanksgiving I should be in the best shape of my life!! What better thing to be Thankful for? Despite the fact that I am currently limping with every step, feel sore with every movement, I feel good! I can't wait to see myself 90 days from now!! All of this pain and stiffness will be SO worth it!!!

I will do a weekly update for everyone to let you know how it's going, and how I am feeling!

In other news... the white cat is driving us all nuts AGAIN! Turns out, she is in heat, yet again. 3 times in 3 months!!!!!!! I can't even tell you how irritating it is. I need to plant a money tree in the backyard so I can get her spayed. Otherwise I will commit myself to the asylum. Take something you find annoying and times it by 1 million - she could make any annoyance seem like nothing with all of her howls, yowls, and literal screams. Cats sure are horny if they need to make that much noise to call a man cat to them. All I want is for her to SHUT UP! ha ha ha!

How about another wedding picture or 2? Here you go...

My brother is such a big goof! LOL!



The bride...

More later!
