It's My Party and I'll Buy If I Want To



I want to give you $25 to shop at Target.

Yes, that's right

to shop at




How to Party (I mean, win the Target Gift Card)~

Do any or all of the following (separate comments for each):

1. Comment: Tell me how old you are. (please, please be older than me)
2. Follow my blog (and tell me you do so)
3. Send someone to my blog and get them to mention your name. (You can tweet, facebook, email or blog about this- all you have to do is get the commenter to tell me that you sent them.)

I'm gonna celebrate my birthday all weekend (or at least try to convince my family to spoil me all weekend), so I will pick a winner on Sunday night and post the winner on Monday, August 9.

  33. Do I really have to commit? Ok, I'll finally admit to being 46, although I lied to my kids about that forever. Tracy, we're tied, so you can't use your age to beg for the Target card.

    I'm now an official follower, although I've loved popping in to your blog from time to time. Love the stories about your kids. I can so relate!

    Have a very happy birthday!
