The Snowman Has Landed

I'm so excited ~ my Christmas Country Sampler came today ! My house is featured in this issue and I was hoping so much that it would come today and it did! The title of the article is The Snowman Has Landed which I think is pretty cute :-)I emailed Karen at My Colonial Home earlier this morning before my issue arrived to find out the title since she got hers in the mail yesterday. Thanks for telling me the title Karen( I was dying to know!)! It was driving me crazy knowing that a few other people already had the issue and I didn't! I couldn't stand it , so thank goodness it came today. I feel so honored to have my house in this awesome magazine. It was such a fun experience and a dream come true. Thank you so much Country Sampler!
Here are a few sneak peek pics from the article~
Have a wonderful day!

I was just thinking to myself yesterday that it was about time for a new Sampler mgazine!!
LOL!! Then I see your post!!
Then one of the kid's went to get the mail out of the box....as soon as they came back I asked "if by chance there was a CS for me?" and there was!!!
I enjoyed soaking in the wonderful decor on each page and especially the one's in your article!!
Congrats to you blog friend!
It's wonderful!

I hope to get to do the same someday...waiting on the bathrooms to be remodeled this winter....

Blessings,
