in honor of this month of thanksgiving, i'm going to have a giveaway. i give thanks to my friend megan for teaching me how to crochet, so i'm giving away a crochet masterpiece (and all of the imperfections that come with it).
it's easy(ish) to enter.
here's how:
leave 5 seperate comments. (everyone can enter 5 times, and you can figure out your strategy. bunch 5 together, or space them out)
here's the catch:
in every comment you leave, you have to say something that's great about me.
hey...just because i'm thankful and giving doesn't mean i can't be selfish and make you work for it a little bit.
also, make sure that in the first comment you leave, you also tell me what you'd like me to make. baby blanket, throw, scarf, pot holder, etc.(keep in mind my skills are simple)
examples of all 3 things i've ever made.
my throw that i'm still working on:
baby blankets:
a winner will be chosen using random.org next friday.good luck.

You are talented.
You are creative! I'm going to save my next two comments for later. :)
OH dang, I forgot to tell you what I want you to make if I win. I hope it is okay to tell you in the 4th comment. Please don't disqualify me. :) If I win, I would love you to make me a pot holder or whatever you want to make me. :)
You love to have fun and go on adventures!
I changed my mind. I am just going to enter 5 times in a row.
You are a great mommy!
Do I have to stop at 5? I could go on and on because you are pretty great!
you were an adorable baby
you are a beautiful woman
you have a darling chicken...er...baby!
you write good blogs
you are the ONLY one of my children who crochettes!...and i'd like something cool. a 2-tone throw would be perfect! (but i'll take anything---except maybe a potholder)
You are a'ight because you have the cutest chubbers.
You are a'ight because you blog. Even if not enough. And even if you are late in the sisters blog today, you are still a'ight.
You are a'ight for taking on an old lady sport and not caring what your old lady sister thinks of it.
You are a'ight because your husband loves you almost as much as mine loves me.
You are a'ight because you are brave enough to ask people what's so great about you.
If I win, I want you to make a bib for Fiona. So, like a bigger potholder and maybe you could just tie in a ribbon on the corners (or loop through the front?) to tie around her neck. I've never seen a crocheted bib, but I think it would be cute and handy. Plus, I am so tired of all her stained bibs right now!
Or, how bout crocheting a onesie! Just kidding.
So, not to get ahead of myself, since I haven't won yet, so here is great thing #1:
I would never have liked Chunky Monkey Ice Cream if it weren't for Anitra. She is generous with her Ben&Jerrys.
wow. lots of people flinging compliments at you shamelessly for some yarn wares. count me in!
Ode to Anitra in an attempt to win a really long piece of yarn fashioned into a scarf:
to me, AniC, you are
the bees
knees.
to me, blogger formerly known as Shaniqua, you are
hill
arious
ness
personified.
to me, NeeNee, you are
so
prett
eee.
to me, Anitra, you are
the most clever, witty
non-Ditty
I know.
to me, hey you, you are
a super nova
shining star
that twinkles
from away far, far.
and even if I don't win
i'll concede that your chicken
is as cute as my dragon
and that is really sayin
a lot!
keep me laughing, wouldja??
aniC is the bestest lil sis
aniC has the funnest humor and fun to stay up with til late hours and into the early morning
you made a cute lil nephew for me
could you crochet me a snuggie?
ok, just a nice little blankie would be nice
WELL! my chances have just reduced considerably. this is me pouting }o:
have I ever mentioned how much I love your blue eyes and always wondered how you got them while I got brown eyes
and I like your hair too, how does it grow so fast?
your also a wonderful dancer : )
Anitra is a baby whisperer. I don't know if it always works with her baby, but it does with mine. She speaks baby and the baby speaks back. I wish she could be here to speak to my baby because she is resisting taking a nap by talking to herself in the other room, when she is not crying. (The baby that is, not Anitra).
You know the true beauty of sarcasm.
You like to play board/card games. I LOVE people who like to play games.
You are a FABULOUS friend. A friend that I miss ever so much. And would love to live closer to, but can't at the moment but am grateful for the times we have been able to randomly meet up in SLC, Vegas, etc.
You are fun to shop with. And you are willing to drive me to the ribbon outlet. Which I want to go to again so badly... man, I need to move back.
You are a wonderful daughter. And your Judson is the best grandson a young grandma could ask for. :)
Even though I could comment all day on how fabulous you are... I won't since the rules don't allow it.
If I am blessed to win, I would like a fashion throw. Or maybe a scarf if I make up my mind in the color department.
