And a few cute videos, since it's been too long since I've done this, and I've found some lately. Will do the Servant of Evil video post later, though, since those videos really deserve their own post.

First, Winter Song. I had this pointed out to me as the cutest video ever. Not quite sure I agree, but it is awfully cute, and a reminder that Spring always comes (during this time when the weather is springboarding back and forth where I am). (I should post this again in the dead of winter, though.)



Secondly, a kitty playing with an iPad! How cute is this. :-) I don't know if I'd let my kitties play with one if I had one (I'd be afraid of scratching the screen), but the guy who shot the video says there was no damage. Apparently, the screen is robust.

Also, I bet that whatever music/art app he's using had a spike in sales after this video.



The muppets do Bohemian Rhapsody! Why haven't I posted this one before?



And finally, Failed Experiments in Video Editing, because I love it long time, and it's funny, and I'm posting it. :-)



Wow, not a single vocaloid video. This is new and different. ...maybe tomorrow!

Another contest, and playing outdoors with my nieces/nephews. :-)

I'm entering another contest! This is kind of a long-shot, but hey, I'd love to win a Super Sounds Soccer Kit for my nephews. And to get a few extra entries, you can blog about fun things you do outdoors with your kids. I don't have kids, but I do have nieces and nephews whom I play with outdoors, so I hope this counts!

I also need to mention that this giveaway is sponsored by Kmart, which has some fun things for outdoor play.

No pictures, though, since I'm not sure how their parents would feel about me putting pictures of them on the Intarwebs. Which is a shame, since they are all cute little buggers.

Last time my nieces and nephews were both over at the same time, they played in our backyard. We have this big ol' tree with low, big, wide branches near the bottom, and they were climbing it. It was my niece's "house."

Then later on, we were all fighting with tree branches! My niece was trying to get me on her side, with my nephew as the villain, and then my 2-year-old nephew came over and challenged her to a duel. Well, not in those words because he's two, but he was defending his brother. :-)

And later still, we were all out in the front drawing with sidewalk chalk.

Fun day. :-)

Now, go enter the contest - it ends tonight, so you don't have much time! Every kid should have a soccer set.

Weekly giveaway post, 4/24/10

Below are more giveaways I'm entering this week.

(My blog is pretty boring, actually, because all I do is post about giveaways. Maybe I'll post some videos soon! I did find some really cute ones recently. And I still haven't posted about the Servant of Evil vocaloid videos, which are pretty awesome.)







































Bizzi Mommi has some really cool contests for kids toys going on right now. So I'm going to be posting about three of her contests, all of which are ending today! The first is her Artisands giveaway. You can enter to win 2 mini-kits! I thought this would be really fun to do sometime when both my 9-year-old niece and 5-year-old nephew are over. :-) This ends TONIGHT at 11:59 PM, so hurry!
Bizzi Mommi also has a contest for an ENTIRE Series 1 set of CrazErasers. My niece really loves these! They're so cool - you can take them apart. (Now I just need to find a giveaway for Zoo Mania pencil toppers and we're all set.) This also ends TONIGHT at 11:59 PM!
And finally, the giveaway that I am MOST excited about on Bizzi Mommi's site - you can win your very own Buttermilk Pancake Puppy. I'm trying to win this for my 5-year-old nephew, because I think he'd get a big kick out it. :-) And also. PANCAKE PUPPY. It's a puppy with a pancake on its back! Just look at it! I don't have any idea why this tickles me so much, but it does. This also ends TONIGHT at 11:59 PM!
I'm trying to win TWO contests for FlowerSpot.com bouquets! One is for a GC, and one for an actual bouquet. This is for my Mom - if I win, I'll get her tulips. :-) See below:

Luv My 2 Girls is giving away a random bag from High Sierra. I'm trying to win this for my older nephew, who is going off to college in the fall. (If I'm lucky enough to win this, I'm going back and forth between just giving it to him, and making him some kind of...college care package with stuff he'll need for college. ...I hope he doesn't find my blog.) Ends 4/30.

Chasing The Now is giving away an item of your choice from CSN Stores. I think it's any item you want, though I could be wrong! I'm hoping to win an awesome cat carrier. :-) Ends 4/30.

Guessing All the Way: Tales of a Clueless Mom is giving away a Kota & Pals Dinoroars Hatchlings Pterodactyl. I'm trying to win this for my 5-year-old nephew, who loves dinosaurs and dragons and all that cool stuff. Ends 4/30.
