And This is Where I Give Away Something Really BIG!

*Update* I've closed this contest down and am busy cleaning up the comments and will announce the winner today! 

I'm going to forego all the funny business and skip to the biggest giveaway I've ever done on this blog o mine.

Through an unplanned turn of events, my hubby's company awarded him some shopping points and we got this in the mail: 



A beautiful pink Kate Spade Hobo Handbag, valued at $245.


And it's just not his color.

Since I'm still toting the beautiful purse my hubby gave me last Valentine's Day, I thought I'd give this one away!

{And let me add, this is a gorgeous purse. It's big (13" tall, 13" wide) and roomy, with pockets and zippers. It's a great shade of pink for the Spring with an adorable black and white polka dotted interior. I better stop or I will want to keep it).

So, if you'd like to win this designer purse that comes with a protective bag and lots of class, do the following: 

How to Enter 
Please leave a comment for EACH of the following for multiple entries (i.e. 2 entries, 2 comments). This will keep it fair! BUT YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE MORE THAN 5 ENTRIES TOTAL

Leave a comment=one entry
Twitter it with an @wearethatfamily or Stumble this post= additional entry
Subscribe to my blog=third entry 
Add one of the following buttons to your blog=fourth entry
Join the S.W.A.K. challenge/carnival=fifth entry (you can leave a comment on that post to let me know). FYI: Just for linking up a post honoring your hubby, you will be eligible for more than $500 in door prizes Feb. 11-13!

 

or a smaller one

 

(To apply button, copy code and paste it into HTML element on your blog)

P.S. If you are a regular reader, odds are you've done many or all of the above for entries, and that's awesome. Just let me know in the comments!
 
Details:

Kate Spade Clinton Street Flat Serena Handbag in Magenta

Dotted with vintage boutiques and cozy restaurants, New York's Clinton Street is the essence of the city's creative spirit. Embodying this vitality is the Flat Serena Handbag from Kate Spade's Clinton Street Collection. Smart in structure and iconic in style, this oxford nylon bag trimmed in patent calfskin leather works with so many attire choices. Handbag also features zipper closure, interior pockets, 14K gold-plated hardware, 100% cotton-twill lining, 8-1/4" handle drop, and Kate Spade leather license plate signature. 

Retail $245

That is about as cute a purse as they get! I added your SWAK button to my blog (wanted the bigger one but my sidebar was just a tad to narrow dang it!) and I plan on posting soon but no need to count that in. I probably will forget to let you know after it's done anyway. It's just a GREAT idea to honor our hubbies.

Oh! And I subscribed to your blog too. Had meant to do that for awhile and kept forgetting. So thanks for the push I needed to check things off my mental bloggy list, lol.
