DAY 12!!!!! Thank you everyone for such a fun 12 days! We have a bonus day coming tomorrow so don’t forget to check back 😉  Today we are featuring my pals at Skinny Raven Sports! It’s not just a running store! It’s the hub for the entire active community. They host Tuesday Night Pub Runs, many races,  and feature local clothing designers such as Hulin Alaskan Design and Kittiwake. They also have THE BEST selection of Dansko’s, boots, and Smart Wool Socks! If you aren’t sure about getting on the running bandwagon, don’t worry, I’m pretty sure they carry yoga pants 😉 If you haven’t explored the store yet, head on over tomorrow night for their Second Friday event from 6-8 at their downtown location featuring local designers and artists!

Brooks are my favorite running shoes, they have been for years and since I have found them I will not let them go 😀 If it’s not broke don’t fix it, especially when it comes to the perfect running shoes 😀 They are the perfect fit for me 😀

Taken from the Skinny Raven Page “Brooks Running is hosting a contest to select the most Transcendent city in the U.S. The winning city receives $10,000 toward local trail improvement. Unfortunately, Anchorage was NOT in the voting. Go to the attached link and LIKE our post and if Anchorage wins Skinny Raven Sports will match Brooks contribution dollar for dollar!

If you haven’t ventured into Katie Sevigny Art studio yet, you are seriously missing out! Katie is uber talented and captures the vibrant beauty of Alaska flawlessly! She also features lots of local talented artists and her downtown studio is a must stop.

Wow! So close to the end and I’m kinda sad. I LOVE giving these goodies away and supporting local! Thank you everyone for playing along!!!

Today is an extra special giveaway! TWO prizes! A 4 week Art Class from Sweet Adeline’s AND a pink toddler hoodie in a size 4/6 from Alaska Chicks!!!

Z loves the art classes at Sweet Adeline’s!  She often asks if it is an art day 😀 Jessica offers a wide variety of classes for all ages and mediums. She has a new larger location perfect for the new classes at 4240 Old Seward Highway Suite 11 in Anchorage. If you haven’t tried a class yet, your kids are missing out!

I photographed these hoodies for Alaska Chicks this summer and my girls loved them! They are so soft and comfy and such a cute design for the kiddo’s!

Both of these gifts make great last minute stocking stuffers!

Day 9 already and we still have lots of fantastic goodies in store! Today’s prize is for you fellow adventure dreamers and snow bunnies! I have a hoodie from Alder Patch and it is my absolute favorite!!!! It is super comfy and holds its shape very well. Plus, the design, pretty much awesome. I LOVE it! Since I don’t get to keep the prizes and I am giving them away, I can’t wait to order something from her Etsy shop, I actually already did while I was loading this ;)!
