I've seen many different bloggers do many different things. All very cool! I've seen the '100 things about me' post when they have gotten to post #100. Fun to read other people's, but that would not be a captivating read on this blog. :) Some have thrown little parties, and some have done a give away. That last one is my favorite! :) So, of course that is what I will do!
Friends I made you something! I'm not kidding! I got out my husband's grandmothers old sewing machine and I made this bag:
Can I say - I think it turned out very cute? (I guess I just did...) Yes, little Miss Wendi has a domestic side. I'm no Martha mind you, and the project has to be very simple - like something my five year old could do simple (this project took all of one hour last night), and likely will have a mistake or 2 (dozen), but that domestic side is there!
So, I am giving away my handiwork to a randomly chosen commenter on this post. But wait, that's not all! You may or may not like the bag, but it is what is in the bag that no sane person could turn down. :)
Oh yes it is - chocolate!
If you want to participate in this Bag O Chocolate giveaway simply leave a comment on this post. I will leave it open until Thursday night at 7:00, at which time a random number will be chosen by someone other than me. The corresponding comment number will be the winner. I will contact you, get a mailing address, and send these goodies to you!
Have fun!

Love the bag! And the yummy chocolates!
But even more than that, I love your blog! I stop by very often, and always leave with something; wisdom, encouragement, smiles and even sometimes tears!
You have a beautiful story and a beautiful family! Thank you for sharing that with us!

Ooooh! Choclolate and a bag! Count me in!
Congrats on 100! I loved every one of them!
Is it really 100 already? Fun way to celebrate! Are we only supposed to comment once?!!! Yes, I know... Love you! Praying for your company traveling to see you!
Wendi,
I can't believe I'm actually posting a comment for the very first time. I read your amazing, beautiful, wonderful blog EVERYDAY, so that I too may learn how to be a follower of Jesus.
Thank you for continuing to inspire me to walk with our Lord, as I search for my place with Him along this journey.
Congratulations on the 100th post; I look forward to the next 100!!!
You have a talent for writing for which I am learning so much from you. Thank you for inspiring me EVERYDAY.
The handbag looks amazing (as do the chocolates!!!) Once again, Congratulations!!!

That bag is ADORABLE! :)
I ran across your blog through a friend of mine. Ever since I happened to come upon it I check it daily. You definitely have a way with words. You have boys...I have boys as well, only 2. Still, I can relate. I wanted to let you know that your blog is a daily read for me and that I completely enjoy it. We have you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. It seems that you've had a lot going on these past couple months...you can always use an extra prayer or two, even if it is from a stranger.
Congrats on making it to your 100th post!
Wow! 100 posts! Seems to have gone so quickly, Congrats!
Wendi you are so special to me, you are not only an encouragement to me through your blog, but also in person. I am so glad that God has brought you into my life.
Yay! 100 posts! And what a wonderful 100 it has been. You know that you are one of my absolute favorites...I get so excited when I look in my feedreader and see that you have updated. :)
The bag is darling! I wish I couold whip up something like that in an hour. And chocolate...oh my. I would put my diet aside for that in a heartbeat. :)
Can't wait for the next 100...and then more after that...
Love,
Jackie

OMG you are so talented! I can't sew at all! In 8th grade my mom had to finish my sewing project for me! LOL

The bag is darling! Way to go! I wasn't aware of the 100th post fun. I like the 100 things about me idea. Maybe you should do 101 things about you on the next post.
Wendi,
Like you weren't domestic! I SAW those cleaning pictures, lady! Your home looks so warm and inviting. I just want to drop by for coffee. No, I won't. hehe
It has been a pleasure reading you (usually all the posts for 2 or 3 days at a time). And thank you for your encouragement on my blog. It has been a blessing for me there too.
Congratulations!
(And I adore that bag! (But I'm in Canada, you didn't mention it, but I'm not sure you want to ship to Canada! That's okay - i just got myself a wonderful thrift store find recently). Okay, too wordy tonight. I'll go read some more. :)
Well how cool is that?!! The bag is very cute, but you are right, who in their right mind would turn down Dove chocolate??!!
Wendi,
First I want to thank you for your encouraging words and thoughts. I have yet to create a blog, but I routinely read yours. You are an inspiration in my continued journey with our Lord. Once again, thank you for sharing your life, your stories and your faith.

Who knew that a cute bag and a little chocolate would inspire so many comments. I am not too proud to throw my name into the mix!!
How do you find the time to clean the house and chase 3 boys and be crafty?? I could sure use some tips.
Happy 100th you crafty little thing you! ;)
Okay, I wasn't going to enter but can't help myself! I love how the bag turned out - that extra ribbon is such a nice touch. And your blog looks great. I was looking at her choices but got overwhelmed. Congrats on the 100 blogs!

Gosh, I missed doing a big hoopla for my 100th post---LOL!! I didn't even know there was such a thing. Oh well, couldn't resist the urge to wind chocolate, and tell you I love stopping by to read your blog.
