It’s kind of a funny story. I ordered some bottles through Etsy that I thought would be big enough to make favors for my son’s nautical birthday party. I opened the package & found itty bitty bottles. I was a little disappointed, but they are so cute that I decided to make them into necklaces {see the Navy Session from the last post}. I think it’s a really sweet way to keep a marriage vow, favorite poem, or someone’s tiny photograph close to your heart!
I have two more that I am giving away, here are two ways to win:
1. Leave a comment below, with the phrase you’d want written on the paper inside the bottle. Also share how you view this blog {mobile device, desktop, laptop, etc…}
2. Invite your friends to join my Facebook page by “sharing” @Andrea Dozier | Boutique Photography on your Facebook page with your friends.
The link is located on the bottom left hand side of the page. Just leave a comment on my Facebook page letting me know that you have shared the page with your friends.
You can enter both ways for two chances to win. I will pick two winners Friday morning!
Thank you for bearing with me while I took a little absence from posting. My seven month old baby {Damian} spent a few days in the hospital last week but he is doing wonderful & has made an almost full recovery. We are so happy & thankful to be home again with a healthy happy baby boy! ♥
PS- Keep your eye out for an abundance of Fall Wedding Inspiration in the next post… courtesy of Sugar Maple Weddings & Events!

Hm… I’d probably write one of my favorite quotes, something to the extent of ‘happiness is fleeting, take hold of it before it flies away.’
I would either write my anniversary date or my marriage vows I think. I view your blog via my laptop.

“My love goes with you wherever you go”… something my mom said to me. For me, this sums of the eternal quality of love.
I view your blog via desktop and laptop (today it’s a desk top).
I would write down my husbands name, our anniversay date, my childrens names with birthdates underneath, and then conclude with “whom I hold close to my heart”.
I am viewing this on my cell phone.
those are so cute! I veiw the blog on my laptop.
I think I would write “Til the end, and then forever”
Always close in my heart.

Viewed on regular desktop computer.
First off I’m glad to hear that Damian is home safe & sound.
and I would probably write my favorite John Keats poem but it might be too long
“I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for their religion – I have shudder’d at it. I shudder no more.
I could be martyr’d for my religion, Love is my religion And I could die for that. I could die for you. ”
but since today is my parent’s 36th wedding anniversary I would put their names and wedding date inside and offer it to them.
I shared on FB too
i shared you on facebook. and as for something to write on the paper…hmmm…”the most wasted of all days is one without laughter” or just the word “Magnificent”
love you sis
Laptop
I would give it to Jer for our Anniversary
I would have our anniversary and our favorite quote on it.
Ever thine, ever mine, ever ours.

i use my laptop!
i would write “this like is sparkling don´t you let it go”
I would write this quote cause it’s one of favorites and has a special meaning and lesson that took me a long time to realize and a very special man my fiancee’ who helped be understand what this quote really meant .
To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved <3
And put our names and date of our engagement in it ..
I view your website via desktop or thrugh my phone ..
Lyrics to part of our wedding song…it really means a lot now that he is gone away for months.
“That your always in my heart
Your always on my mind
And when it becomes too much
You’re never far behind
And there’s no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
Cause only you can love me this way”
oh and I viewed this blog on my laptop lol!
I view your blog on my laptop. If I won the necklace, I would have “I love you more” written on the note because my mom used to always say that to me when she was alive. A picture of her would be a nice addition too.
I view the blog on my Palm Pre.
I would put each of the dates of the 3 happiest days of my life: the birth of each of my children.
Hi, I would write “R.I.P. Mom 2/10/58-9/28/05” in memory of my mom who passed away from breast cancer (When I was 16.). I view your blog via my desktop. 🙂
and I would probably also put “miss you. You are my sunshine” because that was the the song she always used to sing to me.
I’m viewing via PC! You’re pictures are amazing, by the way! My quote would be, “My Grandma is like the Sun. Not here, yet everywhere.” I’d give it to my daughter, Avarie. It’s something I like to remind myself everyday when I think of my mom.
I would write our favorite verse =o)
I would put a picture of my mom in it so I could have her with me at all times. And its on my mobile phone.
