Pumpkin Party Giveaway!!!

I think the most common question I get in emails is "Do you live in Utah?". The answer is no. I don't live in Utah. Don't get me wrong I think great people live and come from Utah (I'm a Provo baby). I wish we all lived closer so we could get together and craft it up and you could all come to my annual pumpkin party. It's tonight and oh so much fun. A bunch of my fav gal pals get together and bring our favorite fall food/dessert. So yummy. The first year we did it everyone had to bring a pumpkin something or another. I think it limited people too much and by the end up the night I had had enough of pumpkin for the whole season!

For you my blog readers.....a pumpkin party giveaway! If you don't know this about me I love games. So for this giveaway we will play one! Here are the rules...

*Estimate how many pumpkins are in this jar....


*Leave a comment with your guess and a way to contact you.
*One guess/comment per person :) Make sure someone hasn't guessed your number already.
*If you attend my actual pumpkin party your guess/comment has to be before the party! My friends are clever girls!



Since pictures can be tricky. Have you ever bought something and it looked 10x bigger in the picture. Ha! I sure have. So here are some details.... This jar has a 11 inch circumference and it's 21 inches tall.

The winner is the one who guesses the correct number or closest without going over. I will announce the winner on October 30th. The winner will win this cute pumpkin and turkey duo. I will throw in a bag of candy pumpkins also. Lot's of luck to all!
