I Was A Photo Contest Winner

I completely forgot to post this back in June.
This is how this story went ... if I remember correctly.

Back on October 11, 2009 we visited the pumpkin patch at the Irvine Park Railroad. We were headed to Disneyland during the kids Fall break anyway and I wanted to also visit a pumpkin patch. I did some extensive research because I just didn't want to go to any pumpkin patch. I wanted to go to a nice one that had many colorful props and decorations and so when I came across this one I knew this one was the one.

The Irvine Park Railroad was having a contest on Facebook back in June asking people to post a picture of your family having a good time at the park.  I immediately dug through my picture dvr's and found the one from our visit.
Here's the picture I submitted:

They obviously liked it because I was one of the three winners ... Horray for me!

This is the message the Irvine Park Railroad coordinator sent me through Facebook: 


Grace - You're an Irvine Park Railroad Facebook contest winner! Please send your mailing address to me at maggie@irvineparkrailroad.com and I'll put your tickets in the mail. Congratulations and thank you for being a fan of Irvine Park Railroad!

I got my envelope in the mail a few days later. In it was a free deuce coupe bike rental and four complimentary train ride tickets with no expiration date. I was super excited mostly because I had never won anything before (the baby jumper contest and the one I also won happened a few months after winning this one).
I will definitely bring these tickets along with me next time we're in the Irvine area. I'm sure Riley will love to ride on a kiddie train ... so exciting.

Yay! I won!!

Two posts ago ( First Breakfast ... Then Off To Baby Expo) I mentioned that I had entered my name in several raffles at the Baby Expo to hopefully win something for Riley. Remember? Well, I received a call on a Monday (Expo was on a Saturday) from Country Financial (insurance) letting me know that my name had been selected and that I had won an ExerSaucer for Riley. I was so happy because I was planning on buying him one anyway since babies love to bounce but now I didn't have to, yay!


I couldn't wait to set it up for him.
I knew he would just love it!

As soon as I put him in it he began jumping and laughing non-stop.
It was hilarious to hear him laugh so hard.
