I think it is time for a giveaway!

Good morning everyone!  I have been wanting to do a giveaway for some time now, as back in April I marked my one year Blogaversary and my 200 followers mark.  Now I am at 260 followers and I want to say a big THANK YOU to all of you.  Your visits to my blog, the comments you make, and the friendship you give are so very much appreciated!  I love you all!



So.....in honor of those blogging milestones, I would like to have a giveaway before things get too much busier with my son's wedding preparations and travel, not to mention packing up the house for the move in July!

I'm going to be giving away one of my Uncle Sam on his Sheep.
The rules for entering are listed below - good luck!

1.  You must be a follower of my blog;
2.  You must comment on THIS post only;

You may earn an additional entry for EACH of the following items:


3.  Make an actual blog post about my giveaway on your blog;
4.  Place a link on your blog sidebar to my giveaway;
5.  Post a link on your Facebook Page;
6.  "Like" my Ravenwood Whimzies FB page;
7.  Become a follower of my Selling blog;
8.  Tell me what your favorite thing is about our wonderful country!

When you comment on this post, PLEASE list each item that you have done separately and numbered, so I can easily tally up your chances.

This is going to be a rather short giveaway, so please be aware that sign-ups will end on
June 5th

I'm off to go decorate the cake for the bridal shower tomorrow!  Have a lovely weekend everyone!

    5. What do I love about the USA??? Awww...what's not to love - from pumpkin pie to pumpernickel...Its rich history, traditions, and roots that keep us strong still, are unrivaled, I believe, by any other nation. I've lived abroad and there hasn't been a place I've been that offers this richness, history, AND freedom to go with it.
    Thanks, Sweetie, for this wonderful opportunity - and good luck with everything! Smiles & Hugs, Robin
