Today I celebrate a blessed 30 years of marriage to a wonderful guy!
In honor of our anniversary, I’m having a “Pamper Me” giveaway!
Body brushing, Dead Sea mineral salt baths and Teresa’s alfalfa have been key in tightening my skin, exfoliating and keeping my skin healthy as I lost my sizes. Β For this giveaway, you will receive:
T-Tapp Body Brush
Bass Face Brush
CRT Brushing Sequence dvd
1 lb. bag of Skin Saver Dead Sea Mineral Salt
1 bottle Better Body Basics Premium Blended Alfalfa
That is a value of $74.50! Β Everything you need to pamper yourself!
In addition I will include a jar of my homemade salt scrub, made from Redmond RealSalt, Teresa’s Dead Sea mineral salts, a blend of yummy skin-saving oils and Teresa’s Bulgarian Lavender essential oil. Β You will love how this makes your skin feel!
I will also share my tweaked version of a recipe for a salt mask for your skin for extra pampering!
Excited?!
Here’s how to enter:
1. Wish me a Happy Anniversary in the comment section as well as on my Facebook page, Be Youthful ‘n Fit!Β And if you haven’t “liked” my page yet, please do! Β (The comment here counts as one entry, and the comment on my FB page counts as another!) Β
2. Tell your friends via Facebook, Twitter or other social media (even e-mails and a phone call can count!) and let me know you did.
3. What is your favorite way to pamper yourself?
4. What will you do to pamper yourself this week? Β It doesn’t have to be something big–can be going for a quiet walk, spritzing some lovely scent on your pillowcase before bed, light a candle while doing dishes, picking up some flowers to grace your table….
5. If you haven’t opted in (the green box under my picture on the sidebar) and received your 7 Tips to Get You on Your Way to Being Youthful and Fit…at ANY Age, please do! Β If you already have opted in, just note that in the comments and I will still count it!
6. Tell me about a special anniversary you have had. If you’re not married, perhaps a special birthday, or maybe you helped make your parents’ anniversary special one year!
7. Do you have a special anniversary coming up? Β What is a special “goal” you have to reach by that time?
I’m excited to get away with my Sweetie for a few days with no computer ;), Β so I might not respond right away–but I’ll be looking forward to reading all your comments when I get back!
(A year ago I was able to get into my wedding dress but not quite zip it up–due to my ribs having expanded from 10 term pregnancies! Β I was pretty tickled that I could almost fit into it, though! π Β Thank you, T-Tapp! )
Happy Anniversary, dear friend!!! and many more!!! π
I shared on my FB page
I love to take a long bath and relax for a few minutes of solitude. The kids, mostly, let me have that time alone!!!!
I was thinking about making a healthy dessert to pamper myself (and my family).
Just opted in for the 7 tips…thanks!
My dh doesn’t really like to celebrate our anniversary, and though I often make a special meal, he usually doesn’t do anything, but he did bring me flowers one year….Was so nice, since he usually doesn’t do anything! π
Our anniversary isn’t until July, so I have some time, but I am trying to make a list of the things that are important to my dh in our home, and try to get our home running in a way that will please him! Baby steps! π
I am so glad that you get to get away for a few days, and enjoy each other’s company! Your girls are so great to be able to keep the things running smoothly at home…You have raised them so well!
Happy Anniversary! Rejoicing with you!
Happy Anniversary!!
Happy Anniversary….and I have liked your page….always like your page! May you and Dallas be blessed with your time away!
Love you!
~Christi
Happy Anniversary to the two of you!!
My favorite way of pampering myself? Wonderful smelling lotion and soft, fuzzy pj’s with a cup of coffee and a good book. π
Oh, Happy Anniversary! 30 Years…that is a milestone! You inspire us all.
Happy anniversary to a real sweet lady! Hope you thoroughly enjoy your get-away!
Thirty years! What a blessing to see your marriage, any marriage, last so long in this age. Congratulations and have a wonderful celebration.
Happy Anniversary!
I hope you have a wonderfully relaxing and refreshing time with your sweetheart!

I tweeted about this giveaway here:

My favorite way to pamper is: to go out to eat or get coffee with my husband!
This weeks pampering will be to “light a scented candle in each room that I am in”
Happy anniversary! All the best π
I have already “opted in” – I love reading your email newsletters!
Trisch, I would have wished you a happy anniversary even without the motivation to win a pampered day. We celebrated 50 years last June with a trip to the ocean. You have blessed so many people with your Christian witness and the positive things you post. I know God smiles when your day is good.

My husband and I just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary!
I joined the T-Tapp challenge this spring so that I would be in better shape for the next 25 years of marriage!
Happy Anniversary! We will be celebrating our 19th anniversary and my 40th birthday in July. I am currently in the 60 day Challenge and am planning to motivate myself to keep going with both of these events in mind. My goal is to lose one more clothing size and feel great at 40 for my anniversary.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
Happy Anniversary Trisch! I hope you’ll have a lovely day away and be sure to remember to RELAX too! I finally found your green box and opted in properly this time! π
I already pampered myself this week with a long, bath. π
No special anniversaries here. But thankful to you for all your help with my losses! π
Happy Anniversary to you and your husband! I know your daughter Jessica through her sewing many beautiful items for me through her Etsy shop. I thank you and your husband for raising such a wonderful girl. Hope your day is special beyond words and blessings to you all!! I have an anniversary coming up in March myself. 14 years and counting!
Happy Anniversary! It was a good year to be married in! π
We celebrated 30 years just a few weeks ago! My goal was to be down to the size I am now! Thanks to T-Tapp, I hit that goal!
I like your FB page.
I subscribe to your newsletter.
I shared your special on my FB page.
I don’t know if I have a favorite way to pamper myself. I’m not good in that area! I do love a good magnesium bath soak though!
Our 25th was really special. I did a photo collage with one photo from every year of our marriage. Note to young readers: Make sure you take a photo of the two of you every year, we were astonished how few photos we had with both of us in them! One year there was only one the entire year! That photo collage became the focal point of our anniversary discussions as we reminisced about all the great memories! Our children made us an amazing dinner in a special “restaurant” created in our living room. Those were the highlights!
I hope your weekend get-away provides many wonderful times of reflection for you and some new good memories to look back on in future years.
I just emailed your article to six friends!
Happy Anniversary to you both! What a blessing.
Happy Anniversary Trisch!!! I love your wedding pick. I pampered myself this week and every week since I have been T-Tapping by brushing, T-Tapping and salt baths. This week was the first time I tried the aloe and salt mask that you guys talk about so much. It was very nice. I hope you have a wonderful trip!!!
Happy 30th, Trisch! How wonderful!
Pamper myself? I don’t even know! Eating chocolate cake, I guess.
This week? It’s too busy with my son’s musical. No pampering!
Special anniversary? Anytime I get to go out with my husband.
This year will be 15 years married (Oct. 10) and I hope to be wearing my wedding size! I would love to get away with him, but we’d have to find a babysitter.
I follow your blog by email.
I’ll leave a comment on Facebook.
Have a great getaway!

May you have a wonderful Anniversary!

Pampering myself? A nap!
A special anniversary? Just before I met my beloved, our family celebrated my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary! They were married 64 years when my Grandma passed. Such a blessing to have godly grandparents!
My beloved and I celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary next weekend!
Happy Anniversary Trisch! Enjoy your romantic time together. Make many more happy memories!
* Liked/Loved your page a long time ago
* I’m telling every single friend on FB I know and everyone in my address book! One because I so want to win and so would be blessed by this prize with my recent high blood pressures and totally think you page will bless them as it has me! My address book and FB friend list is huge! wink ; )
* Fav way to pamper myself? Going to be brutally honest here I can’t even remember last time I pampered myself ok let me think If I can get a bath then I’m beyond thrilled! My little ones sometimes will give me a bath. I do go get a yummy coffee drink on the way to grocery shop sometimes. (gotta work on the relaxing part)
*This week to relax- right now I’m up late having fun on your blog and fb and soaking my feet in mag oil & had some dark choclate today while reading!
*Totally opted in
* I think the most exiting anniversary was our first. We were very young and didn’t have much but went to a nice new resteraunt anyway and the chef came out wished us Happy Anniversary and gave us dinner, desert, salads completely free and had the violin player play songs for us and the table was candle lit! It was so beautiful and we felt so pampered and amazed that they did that for us!! We were 21 years old! Back when my hubby was in the army. We were apart so much and it made it so special!
*This summer will be our big 20th anniversary. I will be 41 the month before. I’m hoping we can go off together for a romantic stroll and out to a nice dinner and buy each other a sentimental gift and we try and write down a few happy memories of each other and exchange it!
* My goal by then July is to have normal blood pressure (It used to be to be fit and thin.) After my recent bp 181/108 (totally yikes!) Now all I want is to be healthy and strong to run around with my kids and be full of energy! I want my heart strong!
I didn’t get my entire address book Trisch LOL but I got a lot and on my FB page too! Done with my foot soak gonna go get some sleep.
: )
Happiest of anniversaries to you!!
1) I commented on your page.
3) I usually pamper myself by sewing or doing needlework.
4) I think reading is my pampering for this week. I just got a couple new books to enjoy.
5) I’m subscribed to your email.
6) For our third anniversary (last August), we spent some time at the beach (Lake Superior), then we to see a nearby waterfall, and we had an early dinner at our favorite restaurant.
7) I guess my goal for our fifth anniversary (and all of them, really) is to still be able to wear my wedding dress, which I can currently do. π
Hope you have a great time with your husband!!
HAppy, Happy Anniversary! We just celebrated 45 years in September and we are looking forward to hitting the 50 year mark. To pamper myself I read or bake. I follow you by email and love it!!!
Just wanted to add a few things:
-I just opted in to your 7 tips!
-Favourite way to pamper myself is by getting a holistic facial- doesn’t happen very often because it is so expensive but it feels so nice.
-This week I’m going to pamper myself by taking time to relax and read a book.
-I’m not married yet, but as for a special birthday, I’m hoping that my next one will be really special. For my last one I spent the day alone due to illness so spending time with my family and friends would make it really special.
-Lastly, my goal for my special anniversary (my birthday) is to lose 4 sizes and heal my body from all my health issues. Might be overly ambitious considering my birthday is in July but that won’t stop me from trying!
Hope you’re enjoying your time away!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! I hope your time together is precious and you come back refreshed and ready to enjoy the next 30!
To pamper myself, I take a bath with Magnesium oil and some essential oils and a book!
Happy Anniversary! It is always a blessing to see couples reach a “many year” anniversary…it is getting rare these days! I am blessed to have parents that will be celebrating their 32nd anniversary this year. My husband and I will be celebrating our 7th anniversary on March 11th!!!
I was encouraged by your site/testimony. We have 6 children, 6 and under….no twins! π They are 6, 5, 3, 2, 1, and 5 months. Needless to say, it has been hard to stay in good shape with so many pregnancies! π We are thankful and blessed by each one of our children…but it does take a toll on the body! π You have given me some hope that it is possible to get back in good shape! π
I don’t have a facebook account… so I will have to skip that one… π
As I said, we will be celebrating our 7th anniversary in less than 2 weeks! I’m excited about that! We are doing a couple day get away (I’m blessed to have wonderful parents I can trust who love watching our children in order to give us time together as a couple).
Pampering…hmmmm…. I think just relaxing in the evening after the children are in bed is something I enjoy.
A special anniversary… I don’t have too many to choose from, but I think our 1st anniversary was pretty special… We had our first child about 4.5 weeks before… and we loved our new little family.
I will sign up for your 7 tips….
How will I pamper myself this week??? Hmm…take a bath, bake some cookies, get a decaf coffee, I don’t know…. π
Thanks again for sharing your testimony. I am excited about the prospect of getting back into shape!

It is awesome to see that you are committed to a life time of marriage! 30 years is fabulous and just proves that marriage is still a valuable thing in our society. More people need to stay married, through good times and bad times..that is part of the vows.
Have a wonderful anniversary. It is great to say Happy Anniversary to such a long and wonderful marriage! 30 years great. Blessings
Signed up for your email and told friends on FB as hope your weekend is a great one
Happy anniversary! I already commented to this, but maybe it didn’t go through… Or maybe it is awaiting moderation. I am going to try posting this one, to see if I need to write out another long response! π I want to make sure it works before I take the time again…
It went through, Sharia! I apologize as I didn’t keep up well with approving the comments while away with hubby! π Thank you!
Happy Anniversary! They say the first 30 years are the hardest, so you two have it made! Love your page!
Trisch,
Hope you had a wonderful time with your one and Only!!!
I shared the giveaway with FB. π
My favorite way to refresh is just to relax and spend some quiet time reading a good book.
Also a new favorite way of mine to feel good is to the PBS!!!!! To get dressed and combed and put on something that makes me feel ‘dressed up’ a bit even for everyday!!! π
This week I am making whole wheat pancakes and fresh dinner rolls, from freshly milled wheat!!! That feels like a special treat.
Also we have a Ladies’ seminar at our church. All day long we are treated to a special speaker (Sue Thomas), a special lunch!!! a whole day to be spoiled as a Lady!!!!
Thank you for the tips on getting fit!!! I am so excited about getting back in shape. I had 2 surgeries in December and have felt so much better. Also I am drinking Kangen water which really seems to give me a boost!!!! π
Craig and I had a wonderful anniversary getaway in October even though our anniversary is in January. We rented a cabin in one of PA’s state parks. We were outside hiking, and cooking and just being together for the weekend. Then we stopped at PA’s grand canyon on the way home. But it isn’t so much what all you have to do, but the joy of having no deadlines or schedules, just prime time together!!!! π
We have our 10th coming up soon!!! I would love to be 5 sizes smaller by then!!!
Blessings to your generous heart of giving and loving others!!!
Sincerely,
Brenda W
Happy anniversary!
