Giveaway time...

I'm making a trip to Savannah, Ga in August and I'm really excited. My best friend I met while our husbands were at flight school for the army lives at Fort Benning and we're taking a girls trip into Savannah. I can't wait to see all the amazing architecture there!


I did a giveaway on this blog from the last time I went to see Katie. We went to the Canton Flea Market and I brought back a personalized gift. I really liked that giveaway and I'm doing it a similar one now!

Leave a comment here, post it on your blog, become a follower, post on facebook, or all of the above! Each action will get you another entry into the giveaway. Just comment here and let me know what you did. I'll pick the winner in a week and contact you to get to know you a little better. Then I'll shop all around Savannah looking for the perfect gift for you!

Good luck! And just for fun, here's a picture of my dear, loving, crazy eyed friend Katie. Please don't kill me for putting this one of you up. It was this or you 9 months pregnant...


Also, if you have any advice on what the best historic tours, best antique shopping, or best beach in Savannah is, we'd appreciate it!

  4. I am a new follower. I have perused your blog and love your style of decorating. I may have to steal some of your ideas. ;) I have never been to Savannah but it is on my wish list. Hope to have a great time and show us lots of photos.

    My husband retired from the air force this past year. Our last base was in Albuquerque. We loved Arizona too but felt we needed to move back to our home state to be with family. We seriously considered Arizona though.
    Take care.

  6. I'm a Georgia Girl so I loooove Savannah! The homes are divine! I take loads of photos everytime I go. Of course, visit Lady and Sons (Paula Deen's) and the Wilkes House. My kids stayed at The Marshall House on their honeymoon. Love all the shops on River Street. Let that little trip take you to Bluffton, SC. It's only 45 min away. See my blog for more details. Take the Trolley and the Ghosts Adventures. Tybee Island is not my favorite beach-too crowded, but lots of little beaches around the Golden Isle.

  11. I love your blog and have been following you for a while. I adore Savannah. There was a great lighthouse on Tybee Island. Also I liked the Bonaventure Cemetary. We checked out a lot of the sights from the movie Goodnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Have fun. Can't wait to see your pictures and future post from your trip.

  13. I am a follower! We lived in Charleston and visited Savannah some. The Blue Orb Ghost Tour was the BEST ghost tour I have ever been. Tobias is awesome!!! We ate at the Chart House which I loved. The fried green tomato appetizer is divine! I have heard that Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room is 10 times better than Paula Deen's Lady and Sons. We just love to stroll the streets and see all the beautiful houses! Enjoy!

  19. Hello there, I just became a follower before I even came to your home page LOL! I saw your painted turquoise door and then took a tour of your home and instantly fell in love.

    I live in a Charleston suburb and I am able to go to Savannah every once in awhile and it is just magical as I am sure you are aware of. Don't miss The Paris Market! http://theparismarket.com/ Plus The Pink House is always fun {if only to walk by and take pictures of it}

  23. I love Savannah. I used to live in the HHI/Bluffton area and we'd go there to antique or go to the bigger malls other than the little one on Hilton Head. There are some antique malls right in the historic district and of course, The Paris Market. There are also a few mid-century stores around there too. You can visit SCAD and buy directly from the students which is cool.

    Warning: antique/vintage prices in Savannah are a little high. You may want to hit the flea market if you can or some thrift stores. Bluffton, SC has some great thrift stores. The Cancer Thrift and Off Island thrift are great as well as Habitat Hilton Head in Bluffton. I had the best luck at those. It's about 20 miles from Savannah over the bridge and into SC. Have fun!!
