A Hawaiian Giveaway!

Hi friends!  So, when I was in Hawaii, I picked up a few things for you since it's a new year, and y'all are just so fabulous!  This is my way of saying "Mahalo", or "Thank you" for being such awesome readers!

 We had an amazing time, and I cannot wait to share all of the photos with you.  It's going to take some time to get through them all, but until then...maybe you can take a little piece of Maui with you!

 One reader will receive:

 A coconut shell candle:
candle

A bag of classic Kona coffee (I drank this every morning - SO GOOD!)
coffee 
  via

And just because one of my favorite things about Hawaii was the fact that EVERYONE got up early to run/walk on the beach, I'm adding a $50 gift card to:

lululemon Wrunning layout
via

(Also, I just realized that you may not all have a lululemon by you.  SO...since I love Old Navy and Target workout gear, I am willing to offer a choice between the three for the winner!)

    My dream vacation would be me and my hubby going to Bora Bora or Maldives for two weeks and staying in a villa over the ocean with glass on the floor so we can see the bottom of the ocean. It would be pure gorgeous scenery and relaxation.

    What a super awesome giveaway! The coconut candle is really cool.

    Are we supposed to say our dream vacation? I see other people doing that... I am so bad with these rafflecopter giveaways. LOL. Mine is one of those super secluded beach giveaways, where you are bascially staying in a hut over the ocean. Aww, yeah :)

    Ahh, love the blog and good coffee. My dream vacation would be ramble around Europe for awhile. Not just to see the big sites, but to explore real life in everyday town. Once of my friends has been doing that this year!

    My dream vacation would be actually Hawaii, and maybe even Australia...and Fiji. Okay, if I could have it may way I'd probably arrange my vacation to start in Hawaii, then head on over to Australia and end on the Island of Fiji. Amazing, huh?! ;)

    I almost HAD my dream vacation last summer in Cabo with my babysitting family--we stayed at the most spectacular resort! I guess it was two summers ago. I looooooved that . . . but I'd also love to go to a beach somewhere in Southeast Asia, or visit the Greek Isles . . . so many places! Would that I had a huge, yearly travel budget. :)

    Thanks for the heads up--this giveaway is THE BEST! I've been coveting some lululemon running tights so am crossing my fingers hard!!

    My dream vacation? That's a tough one to answer. I would like to go back to Hawaii or the Caribbean. I'd also like to take a trip through the northeast. I'd love to go to Europe.

  51. Kristin WJanuary 10, 2013 at 6:55 AM

    Well it'd have to be somewhere tropical...Tahiti? Bora Bora? Somewhere with a hut on a beach and unlimited drinks and food. Massages are a must and hopefully something semi-active!

    Hands down Italy. I had such a fun summer romance the year i was 19.
    I told myself I would never go back to Venice again unless it was with someone I truly loved.

    I dream of taking my baby girl and husband there one day.

    thank-you for the chance to win!!!
