It's our Blogiversary!

Okay then, tomorrow (Sunday) will be the fourth year mark since we created our family blog.  Why did we start celebrating the blogiversary this year instead of the first?  I have no clue!

Anyway, to celebrate our blog's fourth birthday and to thank all of our friends who read it, we decided to do something fun.

So what could we do to thank you all for your kind support and comments?  We decided to buy every one of you a Starbucks coffee!


Unfortunately, that plan fell through when we realized that our funds didn't match our generosity....soooooo, we decided to thank you all by giving the Starbucks treat to just one of our readers.  (Kind of twisted isn't it?) 

Here is how it works.

In order to have a chance at being that lucky duck person who receives the prize in honor of all our readers, you must do the following extremely difficult and time taking steps:

1. Leave a comment on this post with your name included.  (if we would know your last name by just the initial, you can feel free to just use your first name and initial for privacy sake)

2. Please do NOT post your email address, mailing address, social security number, blood type or previous jail sentences.  If  you win the prize we can contact you for that information via email.

3. You do not only get one entry per family, you get one entry per person, so if your mom is the only one who comments on this post, guess what?  She is the only one in your family eligible to win the card! So please, for the sake of your family winning the card, everyone leave a comment!  (Pets not allowed)

In aprox. two weeks, we will randomly select one of the commentors to receive a $15.00 Starbucks gift card!  $15.00 will purchase about 3 drinks at Starbucks, so you can bring along your parents for a night out, or your two best friends, or your two favorite siblings...or you could just order three drinks for yourself and drink them all in a row and get sick!  It's your choice!

Alrighty then, enough jabber...now leave a comment! 
(I would leave one myself, but that probably wouldn't be ethical. If I won though, it would be tasty!)

Seriously though, we appreciate all of our friends who encourage and support us.  We hope our blog has been a blessing to you over the past four years, and we hope that God has been honored by everything that we have done.

Happy Spring!
