Meeting Amy Clipston & One-year-Giveaway!

Hi y’all!

Today was a very special day! We met Mrs. Amy Clipston & this blog ‘Books for Christian Girls’ is one year old! Yep! A double celebration! My parents and I drove (well, my Daddy drove us. ;)  ) to the Texas Library Convention earlier today and wow! I’ve never seen so many people talking about books! It was so cool! I had already mapped out which booths I wanted to visit, so we only visited the two Christian Publishers there. At the Zondervan/Zonderkids/Blink booth Mrs. Amy Clipston was signing books and taking pictures:

At the Tyndale booth, {we just had to ask how to say “Tyndale” (My Mom and I have a debate going on with how you say “Tyndale”, we ask… and she was right. ;) It’s “TEN-dale”. I guess Mothers do know everything. ;) )} and Author Allison Pittman was signing her new book “All for a Story” (review up sometime this month!).

And now it's time for our One-year-old birthday giveaway!

What we’re giving away:

*a signed copy of “Roadside Assistance” by Amy Clipston

*a copy of “If the Shoe Fits” by Sandra D. Bricker

*five different signed bookmarks from Amy Clipston

*two different bookmarks from Melody Carlson

*a “Destination Unknown” luggage tag

*a signed pamphlet with all of Beverly Lewis’ books  and

*an Amy Clipston pen & Kidney Foundation Bracelet (An organization that is very near to Mrs. Clipston heart)

Pretty awesome, right?! :D Let’s start the giveaway!

I’d also like to say “Thank you!” to the authors and publishers for this fun stuff! The only thing I bought was the copy of “Roadside Assistance”!

And “Thank you!” to the wonderful readers of this blog! I still find it hard to believe I’m not just talking to the web--but real (!real!) people are reading and sharing this blog! Amazing! So “Thank you!!”

Y’all have a wonderfully blessed week and keep sharing this blog! ;)
