Karey I am so excited thank you... on the other hand I feel totally undeserving. It has been so fun and easy to spread the word about this book. I haven't finished yet (Holiday madness) But what I have read I have so enjoyed and have been having my son read it too. It's easy to pass the word along with something you really like. Once I started thinking about the different outlets that would appreciate this too it just started to flow. I hope your book does great and you know I'll still be dropping its name and yours for invites when and how I think of them. Best of luck with this book and hopefully many more books to come.
Wow great job guys! You were fantastic! :D
Well, I just scared my husband to death by screaming! I am so thankful! I appreciated just getting to read the book, much less getting some goodies along the way! Karey-
May your year be blessed and I know your book will sell many copies. In my opinion, it's the best book I've read and I hope there are many more to come! Let us know as soon as you write another! I have spread the word to so many and I hope that they believe the pleadings that I sent to please take the time to read it!
With love and thanks!

Park City? Wow that must have been absolutely freezing but also a lot of fun. The wind brought it down to 4 below in Spanish Fork today. (shivers)
Lucky. It was about 47 degrees here.
Mod
Aspen, Heber must have been a great place to grow up.
How entirely random. I just got back to work today after the Christmas break and have discovered that the new English teacher that I share a classroom with put up a big poster of that very movie.
Mod
You should see the Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I love it so much.
Mod
It is! It's pretty long, but I enjoyed every minute.
I also loved that movie....the Bejamin Button movie. Just saw it Saturday and really enjoyed myself immensely!!
It was so emotional, sad, happy, funny, and alot of other things.
What an awesome contest! Congratulations to the winners!
Mod
The good news is, look for your Kindle by mid-June! Books ship on June 9th, and the Kindle's will ship then, too.
Mod
It's only 2:00 and I've already been working on the launch for eight hours. The next book better be a lot easier!
Lots of love and appreciation,
Karey
YAY! I cannot wait! Don't forget that I moved! I sent you the new address awhile back.
Mod
My Mac address book disappeared when I synched it with my iPhone in May (lovely) so I've been going through everyone's addresses and can't find out who this person is! I think it's Hannah, but...
Help! I've got an extra Kindle sitting around and I need to know who to send it to. :D
Karey, in your first post on this thread you say that the winners are Sarah, Tera, Dawn, Aspen Garfield, and "I Don't Care What You Think About Me".In response #3 someone now named Georgie K writes "OMgosh, no way! Thanks so much Karey". So that is one of the winners. Is Georgie K the one who was "I Don't Care"?
Or you can always send the extra Kindle to me, I wouldn't mind. :D (kidding!)
Mod
And yes, Georgie K. was one of the ones, but not the "I Don't Care" friend. Arghh! (and I delivered Georgie K.'s to her personally because it turned out she not only lived in my state but less than a mile away. I found out where she worked and surprised her at the cash register. Very fun.)
I think the mystery winner might have been Alexa? I wrote her weeks ago and haven't heard back, so I just may have to keep it for myself. My husband tells me I'm a winner, so...does anyone mind?
I say if the mystery winner of the 5th Kindle doesn't answer your email or speak up, and hasn't yet (you sent them in Sept right?) then by all means keep it for yourself. :o)
Mod
Karey-I would totally keep it! I love mine! I am going to have trouble ever reading a paper copy book again! My wrists are thanking you!
-Dawn
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
And now...the envelope please! In April, the following winners will receive an Amazon Kindle along with a FlipVideo camcorder:
1st Place: Sarah
2nd Place: Tera
3rd Place: Dawn
P.S. Aspen Garfield and "I Don't Care What You Think About Me" deserve special mention. They came in so close to third place, that they'll be a Kindle and FlipVideo, too!
