It is time to reveal who is going to get some sweet Internet Lovin’ (Heh).
I promised to give away two packages if I got over 150 comments. Some of you saw through my lame attempt to get you to say hi. Or maybe, like me, you would have preferred to see a big bag of Doritos as an incentive. Mmmm…Doritos.
Seeing as I had pre-bought enough candy so as to avoid another mall trip any time soon (or ever again), I have two packages of candy to give away. Without further adieu, here is what happened when I plunked the numbers in the random integer thingy I found via my close buddy Google.
The first number to pop up was 78. That would be Lisa! I do believe that Lisa was the first non-family member or real life friend who left a comment on my original Blogger site (Which I blew up) almost three years ago. Hooray Lisa!
Te second number to pop up in the generator-thingy was 2. That would be Hannah! This is where it gets all Twilight Zone-ish.
I consider Hannah to be a good friend, even though she lives in New Zealand and we have never met. We have been reading each other for well over two years now, and are constantly amazed at how much we have in common. When Emily was born, Hannah used my Flickr photos and created a mini-scrapbook for Emily and surprised me with it. It is awesome. She is awesome.
The reason that I sat back in my chair and muttered “Huh!?
I first found Hannah through a comment she left on Lisa’s site. What are the odds of me drawing those two names, in that order? It’s crazy.

I am not a huge fan of memes.
Not to knock those who have ever tagged me. AT ALL. My problem lies in the fact that once I complete said meme, I am supposed to tag a few others. Which means that people will be left out. People Pleaser Angella wants to stick a fork in her eyeball about the whole scenario.
Ahem.
Holly tagged me with a meme that I could sink my mouth (and fork) into.
The rule:
1) Write your own six word memoir
2) Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you’d like
3) Link to the person that tagged you in your post, and to the original post if possible so we can track it as it travels across the blogosphere
4) Tag at least five more blogs with links
5) Don’t forget to leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play!
I am being a rebel and IGNORING #4 (And thus, 5). If you want to play, knock yourself out. Not literally, though, because that would be silly. And likely hurt a little.
My six-word memoir?
Find Joy In The Little Things
One little thing that brought me great joy yesterday?
Matthew took the kids into the hot tub last night while I was editing photos. Graham’s shorts were wet from the night before, so he came up with a brilliant plan (then asked me to take his picture). Spiderman undies.
The goggles are a bonus.
Another little thing that brought me joy yesterday?
Miss Emily’s (itsy-bitsy teeny-weenie) bikini.
I had a complete giggle fit over the cuteness of it all.
Hee!
One more for the road?
I am easily amused.
That’s a great memoir Angella, I am working hard at living it every day. Some days are great, some not so great.
And how neat on the draw?! I feel the same way about Hannah, she is awesomeness at it’s finest:-)

You are easily amused, as am I. I had a blog for about five minutes called the Adventures of the Easily Amused, so I can totally relate.

Congratulations to Lisa and Hannah! “Find joy in the little things” is a great memoir and a good reminder!
Now, those bathing suits…Graham will one day thank you for that picture that you took!!! It’s awesome! And, Miss Emily’s teeny bikini? I wish I looked that good in one!

Ohmigosh, ME?? I never win anything! Especially not on these blog giveaways! This has made me day (and not just because I am thinking of eating the chocolate). And the odds of you picking Lisa and then me … well, that’s just freaky!
I love those pictures – especially the one of Graham and his Spiderman undies! Classic!
