Last night was family fun night at the school. It was a fundraiser to help raise money for next years fifth grade class to take there annual trip to the coast. They had a few different activities for the kids such as a cake walk, karaoke, and bingo. They were also raffling off several items, and had a silent auction. During the bingo they had two different opportunities to win a Nintendo Wii. I was so close to winning, that the anticipation of the next number being called was almost to much. Only one number "G 60".....unfortunately some one else called out bingo. BUMMER!
Well after that let down we went back to the room where they were holding the raffle and silent auction, and to my surprise I had won something! It was two Excursion fare tickets on the Mt. Hood Railroad. I had only put one ticket in that particular drawing, so I was kind of surprised I had won. Anyway I was glad to win it, and it will be fun to get away this summer and enjoy the train ride and all the beautiful scenery. Maybe for our anniversary in June? I will take a lot of pictures and post them when we do go.

Awesome, that's sounds like a lot of fun. I won a mist system last year at the movie under the stars. It wasn't as exciting as I thought it would be though. We probably will never use it, maybe I'll put it on ebay ha ha
Barbara: What is a mist system?
Oh how fun it is to win something. I don't think that I ever win though. Congrats on the win and I hope you have a blast.
It's a system that emits mist........... ha ha it's basically a system of hoses you tack up to the top of you patio roof and it has holes in the hoses to emit mist to keep you cool. I heard they use them a lot in southern states like Louisianna.
How fun! Hope that you enjoy a lovely train ride on your anniversary.
Can't wait to see those pictures! Congratulations on winning! Sounds like you had a lot of fun.
