A picture story and a giveaway!

June 29, 2009

Monday~June 29th, 2009

This has to be one of my favorite picture stories ever. It begs for a witty title, but I just can’t think of one….

Oh, how I love this Asher guy!
At first he just couldn’t get the water gun to spray…

So he tried harder (opening his mouth wide while
moving his tongue around really helped)…

He then mastered the spray!
A little too well…

The End.

Can you give me a title for this picture story?
Give me your idea in the comments!

(Or, if you aren’t feeling creative, just go ahead and leave any old comment.)

Either way, since this picture story is about water, I thought it was only right that your comment should count as an entry to win one of these:


What is that, Heather?

Why, it’s a metal water bottle from
Crocodile Creek, of course!

In the summer, Miles and Asher and I don’t go anywhere without them. I love this product and know you will too. That’s the whole point of giving one away, you know. Spreading the love, friends. Just spreading the love. What’s not to love about an eco-friendly, easy to use and easy to clean water bottle? My kids drink more water than they would normally because they love their “big kid bottles” so much. In the summer, that’s priceless!

(The bottle pictured may or may not be the actual bottle sent to you, depending on what’s available. You can check out the great variety of designs here.)

If you don’t know how to leave a comment to be entered for your chance to win, it’s very easy and safe. Just click on Comment below and choose Anonymous. You don’t have to be a blogger to play along. This giveaway is open to anyone. (Except if you live outside the U.S.. I’m sorry to exclude you, please forgive.)

(Remember to leave an email address with your comment so I can contact you if you win!)

Comments will close Tuesday, June 30th at 4p.m. (central)

I’ll post the name of the winner (and their picture story suggestion if they gave me one) on Wednesday, July 1st after choosing a comment number/winner through random.org. Thanks for playing along!

COMMENTS ARE NOW CLOSED.

I just burnt my hand making polenta… so my creative juices are all gone…

That's ONE CUTE KID, but beware… he's armed… although not that dangerous…

And don't enter me for that adorable bottle. Give it to someone with a wee one that would use it:)

Kim June 29, 2009 at 6:21 pm

"I meant to do that."

I may need to check these bottles out, as anything that helps keep my active boys hydrated would be a good thing!

Asher, already familiar with medical procedures beyond his years, has now self taught and mastered the nasal lavage.
