<\/p>\nHowdy, Ryan Here (Paige’s worse half!). I don’t post here too often, probably for good reason, but since it’s Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d guest-post. Hi, Paige! XOXOXO!<\/p>\n
Paige loves contests, so all of you should also love contests, too, right? I hope so, because I’m offering a contest to all of Paige’s many blog visitors.<\/p>\n
Here are the rules: If you didn’t know, Paige is somewhat of a chicken collector. She’s been bugging me to get some real chickens for at least a couple of years. We haven’t done that, but Paige *has* brought together a modest collection of chicken-themed items. These are all currently hanging or sitting in our Kitchen and\/or Living Room.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The person who guesses closest to the correct number of chickens and chicken-themed items will win the prize.<\/p>\n
Included: Any chickens or chicken-themed items, hanging, sitting, framed, etc. on the first floor (main floor) of our home.<\/p>\n
Excluded: Any chickens on any DVDs or VHS tapes or movies in the family room. I seriously don’t want to have to check all the VHS covers… “Chicken Run”, no thanks! Food items in the pantry also do not count.<\/p>\n
The Prize is a Sunday dinner invite with all the trimmings for your whole (immediate) family. If you live out of state, I’m sure Paige can come up with something suitably impressive. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Post your guesses in the comments, and I’ll post the correct answer later in the week, probably on Friday. Needless to say, you can only guess ONCE, and the first person to guess a particular number ‘gets’ that number.<\/p>\n
Anyone visiting the house this week (book club, etc.) is disqualified unless they enter their guess *before* said event.<\/p>\n
Good Luck and Happy Valentine’s Day!<\/p>\n
(Paige here. Let’s all work on Ryan to allow me to get some REAL chickens, shall we?)<\/p>\n
