~Birthday Giveaway~

I am so glad that you all thought my banner was neutral. Because I made two at the same time so I could give one away to one of you!!! This one has a few different papers than the one I made for my family, but it's still the same color scheme.

Here are the rules:

1. Because it was my birthday and I didn't get the
girl's lunch (darn school starting and the month of September being way overbooked), I didn't get the "go around the table and say nice things about me" part. So, your comment needs to include why you love me, because I know you do!

2. There is not a specific ending time. The giveaway ends when the compliments reach 38 (because, unfortunately, that's how young I am).

3. You will be entered for each nice thing (up to three--that's to prevent
Shannon from writing 38 and winning automatically because she's THE giveaway competition queen).

4. Once again, I will use the
random integer generator to keep things fair.

Lots of luck.

Ooooooohhhhh...I get to go first!!!! I love you because you are as annoyed by people's bad grammar as I am.

Julie Siegel said...

and....becauase you know how to make all of the things I WISH I could do (like the banner). AND you make it look easy.

Julie Siegel said...

and because you make me laugh everytime I talk to you. OK, there are my three.

Shannon said...

Wow! So I'm the giveaway competition queen huh? Which leads me to my compliment....

You are SO creative. I know everyone will say this, but the reason I'm so competitive is because I really want all the great stuff you make!

I know you like to give me a hard time! And it is fun {most the time} :)

P.S. I would love this happy birthday banner

Shannon said...

So I like giving compliments to people. Especially on their birthday. This is one of my favorite traditions to go around the table/room and say why we love the birthday person!

So...I don't know that I have told you this one before? I like that you stand up for what you believe in, even if it is not the popular thing to do.

Shannon said...

compliment #3 (and I could go on even though we are being forced to stop telling you how great you are with only 3 compliments)

I do like that you are a font snob. Whenever I am choosing which font to pick, I always think "now which font did Becky tell me was the very best." I still don't know how to get to that ONE. Be a friend and share the love :)

You have many great qualities Becky!

I love you because...even though you occassionally annoy the crap out of me, I think you're wonderful and amazing...even though we disagree poliltically, you don't argue with me about it...even though you don't like my dog and would have him thrown out of the fabric store in a heartbeat, you have a good heart, a strong testimony, and a love of Jesus Christ that I envy. :~) D

Is it fair that Shannon gets THREE comments???? :-)
Becky, I have always been impressed with your ability to include everyone!!! You don't know a stranger and I find that a great quality. Your quick to invite all and are ALWAYS willing to serve others.

Melissa said...

Wow, I would LOVE that banner! :) Here's my first entry: I love you for your wit. :)

Melissa said...

...AND, I love your willingness to serve others!

Melissa said...

Okay, #3: I also really love (and envy) your creativity and craftiness. :) I'm always amazed at what you can do.

Maria said...

Ok, so I love you because you are so good, no great! at everything that you do. You spend all day and night doing things so that they turn out perfect!

Maria said...

I love you because you always want to have fun and laugh a lot.

Maria said...

Lastly, I love that you are not afraid to voice your opinion. You are a strong person. I admire you and am also a little jealous of you. :)

Oh, good. I didn't miss out even though I've been without internet for a few days.

First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! I too, think the compliment tradition is a great one...it really makes you feel great. Good for you for not letting it pass you by! :)

That leads to my first compliment--you are not afraid to stand up for yourself and make sure that your needs are met, and you stand firm on the things that are important to you.

alisha said...

Compliment #2 parallels this...you have equal concern for others. You work hard to include everyone and stand up for them and their needs, too.

alisha said...

Compliment #3--you are extremely organized and detailed, and go above and beyond on the tasks you take on. You can always be counted on when you commit to something.

alisha said...

I know this entry doesn't count, but I also had to say that I have always been impressed by how close to the Spirit you are, and by how you unquestionably follow the promptings you receive.

Julie Siegel said...

Yay! I get to do another one. I like how you are so busy and have so much you are always doing but you make it all look easy (or at least like you're having fun)

Julie Siegel said...

AND that all of the "stuff" you are always doing is for someone else. I wish I could say I was as selfless as you. OK, I could SAY it, but I would be lying :)

Lisa Merkley said...

So cute...and since we will need a banner for a 1st birthday in 363 days...

I love that you make me laugh every time I see you!

Lisa Merkley said...

#2 And that you give me all your used clothes for little boys because you have great taste in boy clothes.

Lisa Merkley said...

#3 And because even though I joined the family somewhat later than others, you always make me feel like part of the group.

Shannon said...

Oh goody!

You make me laugh.
