Winners!

Not, as I originally typed, "Winders."

With the assistance of my three small assistants -- who chose the random numbers without much hesitation because they wanted me to go away so they could continue watching "School House Rock" -- Keeping Up announces the following lucky commenters:

#1 Cute Little Pitcher: Liane! I hope Keith isn't too upset that he didn't win it.

#2 Music: C! Maybe TGM will like L'Angelus as much as Wee Sing, but don't count on it.

#3 Nancy Drew game: the Dozen Halls! And yes, Geni, I WILL come for sweet tea one of these days.

#4 Book: Darcy! DJ liked the Mr Norrell book; I tried it but the characters' situations were too distressing for me.

So, there you have it. Winners (or, winders, if you like), email me at exaltedwater at comcast dot net or on Facebook so we can get your prizes to you.

Thanks for celebrating with us!

Giveaways Not Forgotten!

I've been without a computer for the past week, hence the bleak, empty cybersilence in this sector. We'll choose our giveaway winners this week. So you've still got a chance to comment and enter. You should do so.

Giveaway #4: Sacraments or Spellcasters

In celebration of ten good years together, we're hosting a giveaway of some of our favorite things.

Darren reads a great deal in two genres: theology and sci-fi/fantasy. One or the other is up for grabs now.

1. Covenants by Lorna Freeman (this is the Fantasy one)
2. Is the Reformation Over? by Mark Noll (this is not the Fantasy one)

To Enter:
Leave a comment telling what book you're currently reading. And be grateful that Darren didn't try to initiate you into the Wheel of Time cult (series length: 13 books and counting).

You can enter all the giveaways if you want to.

Next week we'll randomly choose a comment, but we all know that the winner is probably predestined.

Giveaway #3: Nancy Drew

In celebration of ten good years together, we're hosting a giveaway of some of our favorite things.

Hey, y'all, you gotta try the Nancy Drew games! If you're the type who liked Myst, you'll like the original games, which have mysterious objects and impossible scenarios (who in the world would build miles of passageways underneath the ground? In Nancy's world, practically everybody who ever owned any property.) If you like puzzles but not a long, drawn-out game, go for the hidden-objects version. Both types have good voice actors and interesting dialogue.

If this type of game, in any form, makes you want to break pencils in half and then stick them into your monitor, then you should just back away slowly.

To Enter:
Leave a comment telling where you'd like to find a hidden passageway.

You can enter all the giveaways if you want to.

Next week we'll pick the winner. We'll post it in code, and you'll have to collect seven different tokens and arrange them in the right order before the ceiling caves in. (Not really. That's just a day in the life of Nancy Drew.)

Giveaway #2: Music

In celebration of ten good years together, we're hosting a giveaway of some of our favorite things.

Two brothers and two sisters make up L'Angelus, a cajun-folkish band out of New Orleans. Not only do they have great voices, but they play all their own instruments. They're totally homeschool nerds. We love their music and even got to see them live. Twice. In one weekend. It was pretty wild and crazy for us. We'd love to share them with you.

To Enter:
Leave a comment telling what your current favorite song is.

You can enter all the giveaways if you want to.

Next week we'll randomly choose a comment as a winner. We already own this CD so won't try for the prize ourselves.

Giveaway #1: Really Cute Pitcher

In celebration of ten good years together, we're hosting a giveaway of some of our favorite things.

Sara loves Fiestaware, but hasn't justified buying any for herself yet. But now, she at least gets to buy a piece: Fiestaware Mini-Pitcher. It could be yours!

To Enter:
Leave a comment telling what your favorite way to show love is. Do you buy a gift? Write a note? Give a kiss? Throw a party?

You can enter all the giveaways if you want to.

We'll choose a comment at random next week to find out who wins this adorable little pitcher. Wouldn't it be funny if we commented on the post ourselves and won it? Haha!
