Dog Halloween Costume Contest- $25 Target Gift Card for Winner

My sweet Sugar dressed up as a witch this year
If you've been around here long, you know that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays!  I love to dress up and have fun.  Sometimes even my chihuahua, gets dressed up for the occasion!

Today I have a great contest for all you dog owners out there!  I'm giving away a $25 gift card to Target!

To enter: all you have to do is email me a picture of your doggie in their Halloween costume (it doesn't have to be this years).  Please send your entry to southernblessings@gmail.com with the subject: Dog Costume Contest.  Pictures must be received by me no later than November 1st at midnight. 

Please only send me photos that are your own.  I will update this post with the pictures of all the dogs as they come in.  **By sending me your pic you are giving me and the sponsor permission to post the photo online**

All photos entered at each individual blog will go on to phase 2 of the contest which will be hosted at the sponsor's site.  Once posted there, the pics may be voted on until November 12th and the winner will receive a $500 Target gift card!  How cool is that?  This contest is sponsored by the Dog Fence DIY.

Sunday's Song- Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

Hope everyone is having a blessed Sunday today! I would like to ask for a prayer request for my husband's cousin, Lee. He was riding his motorcycle this week and was hit by a car. They ended up having to take off part of one of his legs. Please pray for his continued recovery! Thanks!

Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s a light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there;
Over us sin no more hath dominion—
For more than conquerors we are!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

His Word shall not fail you—He promised;
Believe Him, and all will be well:
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

Happy 20th Anniversary!



I can't believe it's been 20 years since I married my husband!  It seems like only a few.  Now they haven't always been easy years, some have been harder than others, but we're still together!  My hubby looks so young in our wedding picture, don't you think?  As for me, I don't feel 20 years older.  I still feel young, most of the time, lol! 


Happy Anniversary Ronnie!!!  
I hope we have many, many more happy years together!
