"Can you Guess What My License Plate Means" Contest?
Hey Everyone!
Wow--Today is the first day of our Summer break and what a day it's been! Kade left for Peru at 7:00 a.m., Sage went off to Sports Camp at 9:00 a.m. and Collin to Basketball Camp at 10:00 a.m. And, Brecken went to Lagoon for the day with a friend. Sage and I then spent the afternoon reading "The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane" by Kate DiCamillo (amazing book), practicing "telling time," and cleaning her room. I've also been trying to get on top of laundry (where does it all come from?) and getting ready to go to CKU-Houston. And--I've eaten nothing but amazing sugar cookies all day. Kade's friend, Ellie, made them for me! (Thanks, Ellie. I need the recipe!) Life is busy, busy, busy! I love it (okay--not the laundry!).
Also, I couldn't believe my dear friend and neighbor, Robyn Harris, made this for me!

She's an art teacher and makes all types of amazing things. She creates whimsical "statues" of people out of clay and this is the one she made for me. She got the photos off my blog and included words that she felt like described me. She wrote me a very sweet note which she tucked in the pocket of my dress. I love it! What a sweet, sweet thing! Thanks, Robyn. She's also the artist of these cool drawings of my children.


Okay--so now for the contest. A year and a half ago, I accidentally bought a car on E-Bay. That's right--a car! My husband and I had been looking at the Toyota FJ Cruiser and I'd called our local dealer and found out there was a six month waiting period for this SUV. Steve was at an all day meeting one Saturday and while he was gone I decided to see if there were any Cruisers on E-Bay (I'd never been on E-Bay in my life). I found one I loved and thought I was just "playing around" with some numbers. Two hours later, Steve got a message on his Blackberry saying we were the new owners of a FJ Cruiser! Steve called me and asked if I'd been on E-Bay. I told him "yes" but that I didn't make an official bid. He said, "Yes you did--we have a new car!" He was very sweet about it and had to fly to Reno, Nevada to get the car! It actually turned out great--good deal and we love the car!
Steve surprised me by getting license plates that say "CKMag." Since Kade has gotten his driver's license, he actually drives the car the most. We got quite a chuckle what people think "CKMag" means for him.
So--here's the contest. What does "CKMag" mean for me and what does "CKMag" mean for Kade?? Any answer will work--I'll choose 10 of you to send our adorable June Kit of the Month to (see post below). If you get it 100% right, I'll also put your name in for an extra drawing for one of my QVC kits (either flowers, bling, canvas, mini-album cards--something cool!).
The contest will close at midnight (MST) on Friday 6th.
Good Luck!
Lisa

You ... Creating Keepsakes Magazine :)
Kade... Chick Magnet {First thing that came to my mind!}
ShellyJaquet@yahoo.com
For you Creating Keepsakes Magazine, of course! For Kade... Maybe... Cute Kade Magnet!
I love what everyone else said though with Chick Magnet! :)
I totally did that too on Ebay... only I bought a stroller instead of a car. I'd never been on it before and I somehow thought you could confirm after you click 'buy it now'. it all worked out though and i love the stroller as it was just what i wanted.
ha - love the chick magnet idea for kade. And a cute CK magazine license plate for you.
CKMag for you Lisa would be like your "baby". The product of your time, energy and 2nd mortagage on your home. As for Kade, CKMag is what has allowed him to live the quality of life he enjoys. Because of your hard work and dedication your family enjoys the fruits of your labor.
Brigitta
Oh how I love giveways!!
We all know that CK Mag means creating Keepsakes Magazine for you.
For Kade I'd have to go with "Chick Magnet"
He gets it from his mom I'm sure.
Ohohoh...I love trying to figure out personalized license plates. When all else fails and I can't figure one out, I figure it must be that person's last name!!
Now for my guess
CKMag for you obviously means Creating Keepsakes magazine
CKMag for Kade probably means Chick Magnet.
One thing is for sure, CKMag is NOT your last name! Hmmm, you could do BRNSON for that!
Oh Peru!! My husband and I went on a mission's trip with our church there about 6 years ago. He has been back once since then. I would LOVE to go again.
For the contest, CKMag for you stands for Creating Keepsakes Magazine and for Kade I will guess it means Chick Magnet. That story is too funny!
