Mark and I never "win" anything. Radio contests-NO. Prizes at work parties-NO. Not even anything out of that stupid stuffed animal crane machine. Well, I think our luck may have changed over the past two weeks.
Two Thursdays ago, we went to a charity poker tournament, silent auction and raffle to help support a cure for MS and to support our 100 mile Best Dam Bike Tour. Poker didn't fair too well for Mark, but the raffle on the other hand...after some trading with his friends, we walked away with a night at the Homestead Resort up in Midway AND a free golf lesson for Mark! Woo Hoo. Wait...it get's better. In the silent auction, I won the bid for 4 Disney Park Hopper passes! Even though I have been "banned" from Disney...we have to go now...it's for Madeleine, right? :-)
So, to this point I'm feeling pretty good about our winnings. Well, I had to redeem myself to Mark after the Disney tickets so we had another charity event this past Thursday. I'm a member of the UBTA, Utah Business Travel Association, and they had their bi-annual gala with all proceeds going to The Christmas Box. This time I didn't spend any money on the silent auction, we only bought raffle tickets. GUESS WHAT...WE WON! We won 2 free flights anywhere in the lower 48 on Delta! Are you kidding me? I was so excited that night I couldn't sleep!!!!
Not sure what else we have coming up...but let's hope it's good!!

That is awesome winnings! We are going to Disney in a month- still don't have our passes yet, so if you are looking for a good family to take a couple...
