I know I keep going on about what a great experience this blogging thing is, but you'll just have to bear with me a little more. My blog has strengthened relationships I already had and has brought me new friends that I never would have expected. I wanted to celebrate my 50th post with a giveaway. I had seen a couple of giveaways on a few sites* and I had not won, not once. This made me very bitter. But now, I am celebrating my 52nd post and I am going to give something away as well, hopefully not making anyone else bitter. I bought that little Mickey that Jonathon is picking out while I was at Disney. I bought it with every one of my blog readers in mind.(even you blog stalkers who don't let me know you are there, you know who you are) I took this picture so that you would have evidence that it really did come from Disney. I know some of you have girls and would rather have Minnie. That's fine. I bought an extra Minnie just in case. All you have to do to register for this drawing is simply make a comment on this particular post.
*Reluctant and Scrappysue I forgive you for not picking my name in the random number drawing and we can all still be friends.
So, I didn't give anyone a timeframe on this drawing. I will give everyone until Thursday morning to post a comment. That was a good try, Gigi, but no, your name will not go in twice.
The drawing is officially closed. Just sit there on pins and needles until tomorrow. Isn't it my obligation as a blogger to drag this out as long as possible?

Oh too fun. My little 'Aisea loves Mickey and would love him, so I'm putting my name in for him!
I think I'm going to do something similar because I just posted my 100th post. I'll think on it and post a little later. Thanks for the idea!
Hi Amanda! Sign me up. I'm so glad you forgive me. I was worried ;).
Amanda I can't believe you, that even at Disney and through all this sad week you still thought of all your bloggin friends. You're just to sweet.
Also, just wanted to let you know I've tagged you on a meme.
I'm in ... aint nothing like a good contest ... I can't believe I've read over 50 of your posts! It's been a good thing ... keep it up!!!
Good to see you. Call me. I don't leave town till Friday. Oh yeah, gimme gimme.
Count me in! My mum and dad took me and my brother to Disney, Florida (I was 30 at the time!) and great fun was had by all. Daughter is dying to go (we'll need to save for a decade to go again)and would so love to win the Mickey! Can Jonathon bear to part with him?
Ok so I want in...and remember... I know where you live! ;)
I know I went on this vacation and I could have bought my own mickey I would really love to win this one.
So if we post a 2nd time will we get our name in twice?

Pick me! Pick me!---I know, when I saw you last week, I felt like I hadn't missed too much and was able to jump right back into your life...Wish I could come back this Summer and just spend two weeks playing and visiting everyone.
Amanda... you are a hoot. Hope my name gets in the action! I also hope you are feeling better after a tragic week. YOur family has been in our prayers.
Oh well, I love you any way....
You know I was feeling really good about myself and my spelling the verification words right, it's been almost a week now since I miss spelled one UNTILL THIS COMMENT. Going to bed now! I'm mad.
I have never left a comment on a blog before...but I do read your blog and love it...you have a wonderful family....thanks for sharing it with me!
This is great. Put my name in the hat - or should I say Ellie's name.
Does being cute bring any extra luck? (I'm talking about Ellie, not me, obviously).
Hey Amanda, I'm a friend of Tara's. I've looked at your blog before but never left a comment so here you go. Thanks for the entertainment!
ok i guess i will do the drawing thingy even though i have plenty stuffed animals . im doing i because if i win i want to rub it in meme's face haha :)
Count me in, I hope you are doing well. My kids love being a UT. peep!
i can not begin to tell you how much I love to blog. Up here in Pa the whole blog thing has not really caught on yet. I am trying. I have even invtited myself to several homes to help them get started. internet service is only dial up. Only a lucky 25% of the people in Fayette County get DSL service. And dail up and blogging is not very good. Put me in the drawing love the idea....
"You know who you are"....I have to admit, you scared me a little..lol
Who's your favorite?
This is Elizabeth's husband. Can I put my name in too? Ioane Tongi
Does it help if I give you a blog award??
Wow, it's getting really ugly in here.
Leah- You know you are my favorite best friend/ cousin who I'm related to two ways.
Ioane- Yes, you certainly count as a person even if you are a man.
Saralynn- I'm sorry I scared you. I really have no way of knowing who's out there looking at me. I think there are some patrollers that will tell you that, but I don't have one like that.
Emily- If you are a friend of Tara's, you're a friend of mine. Glad to have you, here.
Echo's Karen- you're my Karen, too.
Sass- bribery is normally a really bad thing, but in this case I'm okay with it.
Maybe Nate will want a Mickey (or a Minnie) who knows. When I told him you had blogged me (is that what it's called?) he asked how the hell I met you. First he said you were awesome.
Amanda I really enjoyed your blog, loved the picture of us! You have amazing energy and I am so sorry I missed the drawing - would have loved a mickey or minnie. Thanks for the words about your mom - made me feel really good! Love ya, Mom
