Do you have a wish you would like to tell Santa about but don’t know the quickest or easiest way to do it? Maybe you are over the acceptable age of believing in Santa but still want to talk with him or share your wish list. CEIVA has an interactive video on their website where you can talk directly to Santa (and confidentially if you want) and tell him what YOU want for Christmas. The video is very cute and allows you to upload a photo of yourself for when Santa is reviewing your wish list and deciding if you have been naughty or nice. Luckily I have been nice this year so I am looking forward to the books I told Santa about and seeing if they are under the tree Christmas morning.
Really anyone can use this video/website. I am going to pull it up next weekend when I go visit Christopher, my godson, so that he can “see” Santa and get use to what Santa looks like. This is his first real Christmas so he has never seen the big guy in red. I think it will be really fun to see Christopher’s face when Santa and the elves start talking to him in this video.
Head over to CEIVA and check out this interactive Santa video. It is complete free and while you are over there playing with Santa, make sure you enter the Got a Wish Sweeepstakes. Each day until Christmas Eve Santa is awarding one lucky person a $500 gift check. Not too shabby and it is totally free to enter. Maybe today will be your lucky day. Also check out the CEIVA digital photo frames. Mike and I were talking about buying our own digital photo frame but I haven’t bought ours yet. I think I will buy a CEIVA because the photo frames are connected to your CEIVA account and will automatically load photos onto your frame that either you or your friends and family upload into your CEIVA account online. How cool is that? They also offer a 12 month payment plan on their photo frames not that they are any more expensive than others out there ($129).
Are you a fan of Disney? How about Broadway? If you answered yes to either I have a contest for you to enter. You have to act quick as the contest ends on August 31st. The contest is being sponsored by the Disney Company and is open to all legal residents of the United States who are over 18 years of age. So what do you win? How about an all expense paid trip (ie air fare and hotel accommodations) to New York City for 4 people to see 3 of Disney’s most popular movies on the Broadway stage. You will see The Lion King, Mary Poppins, and The Little Mermaid and receive a back stage tour of the New Amsterdam Theatre which is the home of Mary Poppins. It really sounds like a neat contest to win and it is so simple to enter. Just visit the Contest home page here and enter your contact information (email and name) and you are all set. Good luck to everyone who enters!

Now that I have your attention, can you believe that that line was used on a college friend of mine at a bar? This poor chap probably would not make it very far in the Ultimate Flirting Championship game sponsored in part by Extreme Style by VO5. My poor friend didn’t know what to do or how to respond except to say thank you and politely excuse herself after a few more minutes. How she kept a straight face I will never know but she gets major props for that!
Speaking of contests, have you participated in the Ultimate Flirting Championship yet? If not you need to head on over and start so that you can measure your flirting abilities and see if you fall under the category of best or worse flirter. It might save you from being blogged about in the future as that guy/gal with the worst pick up line! The quickest way to get over there is through the link below. After you take the challenge and see where you fall, post the link on your blog and encourage your friends and readers to do the same. We can stop bad pick up lines one line at a time through this challenge!

After taking my September 2006 Disney vacation, I have managed to get on a few different Disney mailing lists. I get a weekly newsletter that talks about “this week in Disney history” as well as provides articles about either cool things you might not have known about or about current events going on in the Disney Corporation. Another email list I managed to get on sends out random “pin” codes (ie discounts for staying on property) and contests being run by Disney. I enjoy both emails equally but of course I always make sure to read the 2nd email the minute it hits my inbox.
Last week in my Disney email I received notice of a new contest they are running in conjunction with the promotion of their Baby Einstein brand. All you have to do is sign up with your name and address and you are entered to win a $5,000 savings bond for your baby. Now that is something simple to sign up for and would be rewarding if you won. Check it out at the link below and sign up!
Baby Einstein Contest
Runs from June 30-July 30, 2008.

The site is celebrating Dr. Oetker’s new idea “12 minutes to Romance” which is a 3-step process on helping you bring romance back into your life by way of the table. Don’t worry the site provides nutritional information for those not wanting to bring weight gain back into their lives either as well as store locations on where to find their products and ingredient listings for those with other dietary concerns. While you are signing up for the contest make sure to sign up for the monthly newsletters which also provide tips and techniques on bringing romance back via cooking for your loved one.
