Update: My photo was chosen as a finalist in the contest at 5 Minutes For Mom!!!  Can you believe it?  I am absolutely astonised, amazed, bewildered, aghast, and all those other words that mean really, really surprised and excited and all that jazz!  Would you PLEEEEASE do me a humongous favor and go vote for my pic?  It's at www.5minutesformom.com - look for the SLEEPING ANGEL contest, and scroll down to the last pic, which is #20.  Help me win an amazing, beautiful bedroom set for my precious 9 year old daughter! 

THANK YOU!!!!!!!

When my daughter was still quite small, the movie "Toy Story II" was released.  She fell in love with the character of "Jessie the Cowgirl", and insisted on all things cowgirl from that point on.  For Christmas that year, she got a Jessie doll and a red cowgirl hat.  Somewhere along the line, she acquired these cowprint pants and a pair of cowgirl boots.  Guess what she wanted to wear every single day?

The hours that little girl spent with her imagination running as wild as a cowgirl's horse were countless.  And when all the riding and rustling were through, this is where I'd often find her - true to her cowgirl ways... asleep under her worn out hat; having sweet dreams of life on the range, no doubt.

My little cowgirl has grown up a bit now.  She's no longer into the cowgirl scene, and now sports many different styles of hats.  She's almost 10 years old!  *sigh*  How can that be?  My little cowgirl is galloping straight into double digits.  I think that she's ready for a bedroom more suited for a young lady.  THIS ONE is gorgeous.  I showed it to her, and she immediately began making plans for what she would place on the shelves on the headboard.

What a blessing it would be to win this set!  And thanks to Home and Bedroom Furniture and 5 Minutes For Mom, that just might happen!  5 Minutes For Mom & Home and Bedroom Furniture have teamed up to give away a full bedroom set to the winner of their photo contest.  We would love to win the Lily Rose Set!  It would definitely make my little cowgirl's dreams come true!
