And the winner is...

So, this baby must be lucky! At the recent FHI Holiday Party, Jamie and I both won raffle gifts! A few days before the party, the company raffled off a night's stay at the hotel where the party would be held, to be used the night of the party. And guess whose name they drew? Jamie's!!! It was a wonderful surprise to find out we'd won anything at all, considering there are over 400 employees in the running for the hotel stay.

Now, fast forward to Saturday night. The company reserves most of the prizes for the night of - and to entice people to come out, you have to be present to win. Prizes usually include a host of gift cards, plane tickets and hotel stays. During dinner, everyone followed their congratulations on the room with comments like, "you guys better not win anything else!" and "you know you're not allowed to win another prize..." all teasing because, in fact, we were allowed to enter the raffles! But, I always responded, "Come on, what are the odds?!" Well... apparently, the odds were pretty good...

Thanks to our little lucky charm, I am the proud winner of two, first-class, round trip airline tickets to anywhere in the US! Maui here we come!!!

I'm just waiting to hear the comments we get on Tuesday... :)
