Summer Story Winner

August 5th, 2008

Well my very first contest has come to an end. I must admit I was quite afraid it would end up being a big flop, but in the end I had seven entries, one even down to the last minute! So thank you everyone who entered, I really enjoyed it, and I hope you did too! I will definitely be doing another contest again soon. Oh and I got an email this morning that I won a contest over at Rare Bird Finds.. If that’s not karma I don’t know what is!

Check out these awesome blogs. Seriously these ladies rock.

All the names went into a bowl, because we’re old-fashioned that way:

And the winner…..

Mrs. Priss!

I’ll send your address Wishcake’s way and you can expect your goodies in the mail.

And Justin, don’t worry; Cale said your dinner and a movie is still available.

If you would like to discuss my video skills, talk to Cale. Umm. I sometimes always forget that you can’t videotape sideways. Someday maybe I’ll show you our videos of Notre Dame.. sideways.

    Hurrah! Congrats to Mrs. Priss! :) And I must say, that bowl is the most beautiful bowl I’ve seen in my young life. I want it.

    I love how you recorded the video sideways! If only you knew how often I did that, too. Makes me laugh.

    You’ve inspired me to do my own contest soon! I’m currently coming up with some ideas…hmmm…

  2. Morgan says:

    Oh yay! I can’t wait for those goodies! Thank youuuuuu!

    I love the video, by the way, hahaha.

  3. Justin says:

    Sweet, I was about to post a story last night (for realz) and Morgan said I wasn’t allowed to! I think she was just jealous that my prize would have been better than hers.

    Kerri,

    Thanks! Actually I got that bowl for about $2 at an urban outfitters. There were two on sale, one pink and one this blue. I bought both and gave the other to my brother in law’s then girlfriend. I use it to keep all my little things on my dresser. So I had to clean it out to use it! Good thing though.. it was quite dusty.

    Justin, just stop talking.

  6. Sarah Marie says:

    Congrats Morgan! Ooh you lucky girl! Now I’m going to have to buy some of wishcake’s stuff for myself! Thanks for doing the contest, Steph! It was a lot of fun! And yes, I adore that bowl! Sooo cute!!! How awesome that you got it for $2! And uh… I videotaped a bit of the Eiffel tower sideways. Whoops! heee.

  7. Congrats Morgan!!!

    Steph, this was a great contest to participate in and I do believe it is karma that you won something from Rare Bird Finds. Also, thanks for listing my blog. I think I am going to have to go visit Wishcake’s etsy shop because those prizes were too adorable.

  8. Talia says:

    Yay, Morgan!! I’m very happy for you and your lovely goodies, even though I have yet to win a contest of any sort, ever. :)
    It was a great contest, Stephie, and I loved it. I shall be anxiously awaiting your next one someday.

    And yes, I must agree with Kerri, CUTE bowl!! I can’t believe you got it for $2.

    by the way, I videotape things sideways ALL the time. There’s an entire 4 minute video of my girls I did recently. Sideways.

    Congrats Morgan! Fun stuff!!

    I like the cute little paper that is IN the cute little bowl! It’s so much more fun to draw a winner when the names are on cute paper!!

    So I must be nosey Steph, what did YOU win??? I just love contests…they make life worth living! =)

    BTW, those are just the cutest papers ever…I wonder who has such good taste? :) Dollar bin at Michael’s for the win.

  12. Steph says:

    Hi Susan,

    Actually I won a $100 gift card to Crate and Barrel! I’m uber-excited. It kind of puts my little prize to shame. I actually completely forgot I had entered the contest, so it was a great surprise this morning.

  13. Steph says:

    Alyssa,

    Oh yes!! Those papers are thanks to you and your good eye!

  14. Lauren says:

    How cooool! And Cale’s haircut? And Brodie’s ears? OMG!

  15. Leslie says:

    haha, i always do that with videos too! it is the camera’s fault though, not us – it obviously should know that we want it flipped.

  16. Katie says:

    I didn’t enter, but that is one beautiful bowl!
