100th Post . . . AND THE WINNER IS . . .

YAY! 100 posts! This blogging thing has become way too much fun! I saw this altered quote on a blog the other day, and it cracked me up! It said:

Life isn't measured by the
number of posts you blog,
but by the number of posts that
take your breath away!


Hehehe, I don't think I have had many posts that have been "take your breath away" quality, but it has been fun! Thanks to everyone who follows and comments!

I was amazed by the amount of interest in the giveaway! I was not expecting nearly as many comments as I got. I wish I could send you all a book, but alas, I have just one set. And it is eagerly awaiting new ownership.

I was very professional. I wrote everyone's name on a slip of paper . . .


Then I put them all in a bowl, which Lacey held above my head while I drew one out (the lovely expression on my face is just from anticipation!)


And the winner is . .

.

Congratulations Melissa & David! (and Brianna and Benjamin!) I am so excited, and I hope you love these books as much as I do! If you get me your address I will drop them in the mail tomorrow.

Thanks again to everyone who entered, and keep your eyes peeled, I will be sure to do another giveaway soon!

That was a fun contest! I will need to think up something creative, too!

I was thinking the same thing, that I should totally do something noteworthy like this. And from Melissa's reaction, it looks like (for her at least) this was one of your posts that "took her breath away"! :) It was lots of fun! Thanks for your generosity.

that was such a fun idea! I too collect children's books. I have read your blog (i too found yours through Melissa's blog)but didn't think that you would remember me so I felt dumb leaving a comment. Things are going great for me how about yourself? Tiffany your old roommate works at my school. Small world huh!
