A Labor Day Giveaway!

Monday, September 5, 2011


Yep! I'm doing it finally! It's a Giveaway!

I only give away things that I am personally in LOVE with, and today's giveaway is rocking my socks off I love it so much!

My personalized Erin Condren On-the-Go Life Planner arrived just in time for me to spend the weekend filling it up!



I do have to admit that the first time I saw this planner (at Bible study by the way), I was not sold. I didn't think I'd like the layout, but when I got on the website, I just couldn't resist! They are too cute!

So without further ado, here it is.....


There are tons of great designs to choose from. You can check them all out at http://www.erincondren.com. This is the front of mine, and below you see the back.


The inside is full of beautiful colors and inspiring words like these...

Preach it sister!

One of my planner requirements is that my planner must have both a monthly view and a weekly view with tabs! Because without tabs, you'll never find the month you're looking for. Of course this beauty fits both bills.

The monthly view (sorry it's sideways)

The weekly view...broken down by morning, day, and night with places for goals and to dos

Yeah for tabs! 
Of course there is a place for notes (another must have!)

And there are two great folders nestled right in the back to "keep it all together"

And the deal sealer for me.....the envelope in the back....perfect for keeping receipts, loose notes, business cards and just about anything you can squeeze in there. 

Lastly, there is a place for future planning...just to keep you dreaming.

So are you jealous yet!? 

Do you want one?!

  2. Allison, I'm a devoted follower and I will use my planner to schedule everything from doctors visits to grocery trips/lists, to Scentsy parties to vacations. This would really help me organize my disorganized life.

  3. I love planners!! Right now I only have my cozi app (which is great to let my husband know what's going on and vice versa) but having something actually written down is the best. So how would I use it...for EVERYTHING! Schedules, to do lists, reminder for important dates/events...and whatever else comes around. :)

  4. It doesn't get much better than this beautiful planner!! I've never seen it before you shared it with us and I have to say that it must be one og God's gift to moms. I'll use it for my my family, church, scentsy biz and personal activities. I think it will really help me to write out my goals weekly and focus on them. And they are so darn cute, I'll want to take it everywhere I go. #blessed! Thanks for sharing. And I LOVE your posts and blogs.

My son and daughter are now almost 4 and 5, I work full time as an icu nurse, and am quickly growi-g my scentsy business (hopefully director by my 1 year mark and eventually superstar director!) So my life is busy and crazy, and I'm a perfections so I can't stand it if I can't keep it all together. This planner would be PERFECT for me!! Thanks again for everything you do. You are truly a blessing :)

  9. I am a follower and an avid planner as well! I am sure you saw my recent post of the beginning of my September picture on facebook. If not you should find it. My OCD is definitely the strongest when it comes to planning! My planner looks similar to yours in ways; however, I highlight in 5 different colors to note the different 'categories' of activities. How can you not be a planner when you own 3 business, have a husband, new house, and a baby on the way!? I am sure you understand! Happy Planning with your new planner.

  10. Allison, what an awesome planner you've found! I need one for my ADD brain!!! I would use it for everything from my work to my family to my Scentsy. I have a kazillion conference calls and projects at work. My kids have orthodontist appointments and school stuff and sports. I have doctor's appointments and Scentsy parties and Bible study. And as if that wasn't enough, I've decided to go back to school to get my degree! I love this planner - thank you so much for sharing it with us and giving us the opportunity to win one!

  11. Looking forward to reading your blogs! I've read quite a few! I have another stay at home Mom who just got a planner, like this & I LOVED it! This would be so handy for me to have! I'm a stay at home Mother of 3 & expecting my 4th! I write everything on my calendar @home that I don't keep on me! :( Sometimes I have to tell people in my Scentsy biz or my Moms Club that, I'll check my calendar & get back to them. :( how un-professional I know! Lol This could be my right hand! :)

  12. Love this! Right now, I'm using a slew of things...and the Cozi app is great, but there is no place for me to keep my goals for the month :( Here is everything I'm attempting to track right now (tonight, actually, as I type this!)

    1. Scentsy goals: I'm going to make director by October or November!
    2. Scentsy parties/basket parties out/Vendor Blender I'm the organizer of/Fundraiser
    3. Soccer Practice for Jackson (daddy and I coach)
    4. Grocery shopping! (+coupons!)
    5. Workouts. I'm making it a priority and my goal is to train hard to make a 5k by November and a 1/2 by February.
    6. All the paperwork for Kindergarten--goodness!!

    The list goes on...geesh! Too much! Scentsy binder is great, but the ring is so big that I am CONSTANTLY having to take papers out JUST to write for the day...:( I think this is FANTASTIC and would love something that is full of color like that! :)

  13. Oh man! That planner is ah-mazing! I was screaming on the inside,"I WANT IT!!" And, "I NEED IT!"
    Things are sooooo crazy busy with me, and I literally have 3 planners, and 2 dry erase calendars, and I forget stuff allllll the time! This would be perfect!
    Things I need to keep track of..
    1. Scentsy parties, meetings, training calls etc.
    2. PTA meetings, officer meetings & trainings, volunteer hours, copy making, fundraiser planning...
    3. Girls cheerleading practice, football games, coaches meetings, parent meetings..
    4. Soldiers' Angels Events, event coordinating, volunteer hours, when I sent packages/letters to our soldiers, and which ones I sent to, warehouse events, angel meetings...
    5. Being a MOM, which means I need to schedule in the cleaning, cooking, laundry, doctors appointments, and FUN!

    See...just typing that out is making me have a mini anxiety attack! This is why I must get organized!! I need everything to be in ONE place, and I am in LOVE with that planner! And...I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog!! :) Always uplifting when I feel I need it the most. Keep writing, we are reading everything!

  14. Honestly, this giveaway couldn't be better! I've been saving for a Life Planner so if I won, I'd be through the moon! I love love love Erin Condren products! They are just so darn colorful and fun. I browse her website just for the eye candy. Ha!

    I follow your blog and am so happy to have found it!

    I'd be using my planner to record all my appointments for myself and my baby girl, to record dog trials for my hubby and to know when we need to go out of town, to keep track of birthdays and special events....and one day (hopefully soon!) to record everything for my Scentsy business. It'd be a spot to record all of our life. At this time we don't have a central family calendar so this would be a spot to keep all of us on track and together. I'm desperate for a good life planner!!! Thanks for the chance girl!

  15. I'm a follower, and a newer one at that.

    I'd use to to keep myself, the hubs and two kiddos appts in check. We have soccer, swim lessons, me working one night a week late and all that good stuff.

    Awesome giveaway!

  16. OH Allison I love it!

    My life is super busy with kids, husband, Scentsy, and running my home daycare. I could totally use one to keep me organized! I have a short memory (like a goldfish, glub glub and its gone haha) and i have to write notes all day long! I could keep up with booked parties, tuition paid by my daycare parents and even log what Ive eaten morning noon and night! I'm absolutely sold! Thanks for all you do!

  17. I would love to win one of these planners. I have 4 little girls( 9,7,4,3) I would keep track of b-day parties, my scentsy parties, meals, hubby's work scedule, doc's appts, pet appts ( dog& cat) contacts, there is probably more I'm missing, a running grocery list( see i did miss something! I think this would look great in my new " Scentsy Show Off" bag!

    Cheers\Renee

  18. As you know, I am a triangle and what I do best is make to-do lists and plan! I would use this handy-dandy planner to map out my crazy schedule and keep me on track!

  19. Okay Allison, no fibbing, I AM NOT a planner! I was at one time then realized when people didn't follow my plans, I wanted to scream so I gave up on it. Now with Zoe in Kindergarten, I need to seriously get back to it! I think this would be a good way to start! And I'm a squiggly line that goes diagnol to say the least, I would at least like to get to horizontal!

  20. Well I thought I already posted a comment but I don't see it. :( well I love your blog and I would use the planner to keep track of everything from my 2 yr olds busy schedule to my scentsy and everything in between. Thanks!

  21. I'm a new follower! I have SO many friends who have gotten this planner and I would love to get one! I really need to start meal planning, and I've been telling my Hubby I need (want :)) to get a hard copy planner this year again and not just put things in my phone. After having our 3rd sweet little one 7 months ago, physically writing things down will really help my brain stay focused! :) Thank you for such a wonderful giveaway!

  23. I'm a new follower! I would absolutely love to have one of these. I would use it to keep up with weddings, showers, outings with friends, birthdays, anniversaries, and other day-to-day events outside of my work schedule! I am so scatterbrained that I often forget friends' events. Thank you for this great giveaway!
