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

or a smaller one

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:

I have always loved Kate Spade but only from a distance since it is a little expensive for our budget. Plus, I don't think my husband or kids would like to have a purse in place of food. LOL Thanks for this opportunity

I think I deserve that purse b/c we, too, are that family (with our 3 children under 3.) My hubby is also away on military training for the next 6 months. (Do you feel sorry for me yet?) I am a teacher and just came back to work 3 weeks ago, leaving my granny with my 2 girls-3 and 2, and my youngest, 4 months. Hey, maybe she deserves the purse? haha

One a serious note, this is so sweet of you to do this. I pray God blesses you for your generosity!

Okay, I'm going to say this outloud: I'm a practical purse kind of gal. I have never bought myself a "fun" purse like this bright pink one. But I could totally see myself carrying it around!!! Maybe it comes with age, appreciating the finer things that make me female, but this looks like a lot of fun.

Thanks for the chance to win!
