Bloggy Giveaway Carnival: Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

I'm going to blame it all on Compassion.

If it wasn't for Compassion, I never would have discovered Rocks in my Dryer's blog. And if I hadn't discovered RIMD's blog I never would have felt compelled to join in the bloggy giveaway carnival .

But I did and it sounds like fun.

In the spirit of friendship, the friendship we share in the blogging community, I am giving away a copy of the DVD Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. It's one of my favorite chickie flicks. So, sorry guys, but maybe there will be a giveaway for you in the future.

Just leave a comment and tell me about one of your best friends and make sure there's some way I can contact you! Thanks much!

Oh and check out the carnival for more places to win!

I met my best friend on a message board for the TV show The X-Files! In fact, she was the first person I met after I got on the Internet, way back in 1996. We're still best friends, online AND off-line, all these years later.

This movie inspired my mom, 3 sisters, and sister in law to do the same thing with a tee this year complete with taking pics in it and writing letters. We'll be making memories for sure. These are some of my best friends.

My best friend is Lou; she's sat with me when my children have had operations, helped me when my daughter died, laughed with me through some of the happiest times we've had and just plain always been there.

One of my BFFs is Jaime. She painted my toenails and gave me a fab pedicure after I had emergency surgery to remove a brain tumor. To play with my toes at the tail end of winter is true love.

Some of my best friends are ones who live very far away. We met on a Jane Austen e-mail group when I was 14, and 10 years later we still have great conversations and get together in person whenever we can.

I've seen this movie once and enjoyed it... I'd love to add it to my personal collection!

One of my very best friends was the very first person that we told when we found out we were expecting, one of the first when we knew it was twins. She was also there for me when our babies were stillborn at 20 weeks. She is closer to me than a sister! She has always been there in the best of times, and also in the worst.

Jenna said...

My best friend and I met when she was 6 months and I was a year old. My mother started babysitting for her then... and what started as a casual business relationship turned into some of the best friendships my family has ever had. Even though Jamie and I are complete opposites, we are more like sisters than friends and I know that she will be there for every major event in my life!
