think spring GIVEAWAY!

*THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED*

I have to admit, that when Fifi contacted me, I thought it wouldn't go right...
that she wouldn't like it....

I was out in the garden, nails full of dirt, and hot and tired from working out in the garden when my husband called to me "Fifi's on the phone"

I started laughing...it just didn't even sound right!.....but it was for real....

she started talking to me and her voice was so sweet...and she was so genuine...and she put me at ease immediately asking me questions about our farm

I answered the best I could, but it all didn't sound worth it for being in a book....so I asked Fifi if I was going to be in the 'decorating no-no section' or the 'romantic faux pauxs'

seriously

but she laughed and said "i don't think so sweetheart"

afterall, I knew the other women who were going to be featured in the book...and I knew that their talent and creativity and decorating skills far excel mine

but here we are....she did like our home, and actually did put it in the book....

 

after a day of photography shoots in and out of the farmhouse, we gathered some elements

from inside and actually brought them outside to our prairie we have in the back 3 acres,

for a fantastic candlelit dinner shot

...it really was so romantic...so Romantic Prairie Style

we then enjoyed dinner on our deck with both Fifi and Mark...and the next day,

our little 5 year old daughter  asked when "Uncle Mark" was coming back

(she missed him already...and seriously thought he was her uncle...so cute!)

both Mark and Fifi are a part of our family now...part of our memories here on our prairie,

and I hope when you see our home in Fifi's book, that you feel a part of our

life here too....

no amount of money could buy the gifts I have received by knowing this sweet lady...
