I am so excited that it is March! This month marks the beginning of Spring . . . almost . . . in Utah. It is also Davin's and my birthday month! This year it includes the Oscars (this upcoming Sunday in case you didn't know), a birthday trip to California, and my baby turning two! It's a big month in my opinion. We'll pretend that we are celebrating my 389th post too. In order to help make March a little sweeter for you too I am going to host a giveaway!
This month you, my loyal and faithful readers (and anyone else who stumbles across this giveaway), have the chance to win a $10 gift card to See's candy! I love me some good chocolate and See's is by far my favorite. $10 will buy you about a 1/2 pound box of chocolates. Be sure to try the bordeaux, which is my fave. You will also receive a tube of my favorite lip gloss. It's C.O. Bigelow Ultra Mentha Lip Shine. I also like their tinted mentha glosses, but the lip shine is what's up for grabs. It is so fresh and tingly and even tastes good!
Make sure to share the love and tell your friends about this giveaway too. I will choose a winner on March 10, 2010 at 8pm (or whenever I get my kids to bed that night), so make sure to enter before then! Good luck!

I'm first! Oh how I love me some Sees Candies (and bordeaux are in my top five favorites).
I'm excited because Jeremy's brother gets home from his mission March 9th and that means a trip to Blanding! I haven't been in over a year and I'm needing some good Blanding time. It so happens that his "homecoming" falls right at the begining of Jeremy's spring break... so it won't have to be a weekend trip either. I CAN"T WAIT. Hooray for March!
i love march because i get to enjoy march madness, the NCAA BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT!!!! definitely my march obsession! also, im looking forward to baking shamrock sugar cookies and seeing the chicago river dyed green for st. pattys day. definitely a great month!
i love this giveaway thing btw! such a fun idea! i am totally going to do it for my birthday month! :)
mmm... chocolate.
Fun giveaway! I love March because it's John's bday (the 17th, even!) and I make a green dinner and dress everyone up in green. Fun and memorable family traditions.
Oh See's candy how I miss it. We don't have it here but whenever we are in Utah or Colorado we get a box! I am looking forward to having this baby in March...only 2 1/2 more weeks. I also love St. Patty's Day Corned Beef and Cabbage.
But my favorite part of March is my birthday on the 7th! :) Yay for March birthdays!!!!
mmm, it's been way too long since I've enjoyed some See's! I love March because it's rodeo time in Houston!
I love March because You are coming to California!! Also Its the 4th annual celebrity look a like party which si always fun! (last year me and jason went as Heidi and Spencer Pratt) This year I am thinking Chelsea Handler unless you can think of something better. I am open to ideas
You are so cute. I love that lip gloss! I am looking forward to walks on warm days. I can't wait for Spring too!
MmMMmMMmMMmm Bordeaux. (How does one pluralize that? Isn't the 'x' a plural marker?) Top middle of the photo ;) Not that I had them every special occasion for a few years there....
I'm looking forward the NCAAs (my top two teams in the tournament? Woohoo!!), and an online writing class I'm taking.
Obviously I am excited about welcoming baby girl Kenzie to the family this March! I am so happy about it that I could cry!! And that picture of See's candy makes my mouth water so I really would love to win! In fact she just might come on March 10 so that would be awesome to win on her birthday.
Wohoo!!! I super excited for "Cats" when you guys are down in So Cal. It's gonna be great! I love you!
What?? This is awesome! Now even if I don't win, I think I'm gonna have to go get some See's, that looks GOOD. But winning See's is even better! This month I'm looking forward to going down to Tucson to visit my sis (I just decided). I'll be going at the end of the month.
What an awesome giveaway! Chocolate and lip gloss are two of my favorite things. When I wanted to splurge when I was in college, I would buy chocolate and/or new lip gloss! So fun.
OK--what I am looking forward to in March? We are currently interviewing realtors and will begin house hunting this month. I'm really excited and hope to look at several homes during the month of March. (And, I hope it doesn't take too long to find what we're looking for!)
Yeah Shannon- thanks. I would love some sees candy right about now. The bordeaux are my favorite!
I am excited for Katelynn's St. Patrick's Day parade at preschool this month.
It's my birthday this month too! I hope Nathan and I ca go the the Getty this weekend.
One of my childhood memories was of my Mom getting See's suckers in bulk and we'd have 'em all summer. Yum!
I start my third trimester at the end of March! That has me excited!
I also bought my girls super cute St. Patrick's Day shirts real cheap on clearance last year, and lo and behold, the sizing works perfect this year and they'll look adorable. I like that part of March too!
In March I'm looking forward to my brother coming to visit for a week and the excuses it will give me to get out of the house and enjoy Portland.
I'm also looking forward to sending my awesome sister-in-law a birthday card.
P.S. I also blogged about this giveaway at: http://emileeandeli.blogspot.com/2010/03/i-need-chocolate.html
because I could really use some chocolate.
I now realize I could have written a nice memory of going to See's with my mom and sisters when I was little, but no, I just chose to focus on wanting to eat chocolate now.
I can't wait till my brother and his family come to visit us at the end of this month! Reagan was beginning to think that the only family he has is me and Michael : )
I am excited for our year round break. Tanner gets 3 weeks off. WAHOOO! I know, most moms wouldn't be excited, but I sure am! And yeah for it being your birthday month :) I sure love Sees Candy too. Mmmm!
Just the other day I was telling Mike how Jules introduced me to See's Candy. We were at the mall and she wanted to get a chocolate bordeaux (which I had never had). It was AMAZING! Thanks to the Olson's for helping me see the light :)
shannon! we have the same favorite lip gloss!! and my favorite of all the see's chocolate goodies are the dark chocolate w/marshmellow & caramel in the center, i ALWAYS save that one for last (thought you might like to know).
Yeah Giveaway! I love March for the kite flying. (I know, typical and easy answer). We get dollar kites at WalMart and spend our evenings trying to see how high the kite can go. Entertaining for all ages.
I am looking forward to Shannon and Ian and my adorable grandboys coming to visits along with their cousins and auntie and uncle too. In addition, I have a couple potluck middle school concerts with the La Habra ukelele ensemble joining one of them. Who else can say that??? I also have parent conferences AND a trip to Disney Magic Music Days with about 50 middle schoolers. Yes, March is an exciting month!
I think you know how I feel about See's and I am absolutely curious what this lip gloss will do to your father if I kiss him with this on. You should see what happens when I wear Burt's Bees. He starts saying "Oww, oww" b/c it's so "hot". I like the words "tingly" and "taste good". . . .
I'm an "In like a lion and our like a lamb" baby too. Loving that I am still celebrating the 20's. Rebecca--universitybabe at gmail.com
Why do I look forward to March? That would be because I havet his thing about feeling the sunlight on my face and comming in my windows and opening my windows. March means more sun and light to me.
EVERY TIME I walk by a sees candy store, I think of you. NO matter what. A very fitting giveaway! :)
I love March because Davis's birthday is this month. Also because I love St Patrick's Day!! So fun to wear green. :-) It's also the first month of spring.

I love March because it means Spring!! (Even though we could still get a snowstorm in MN!) :)
Not my birthday, but it was my mom's yesterday so that was great. I'm also looking forward to spring break next week because I'm in college and it's nice to get some time off!!

Mmm chocolate. I don't have anything special happening in march this year, but I'm looking forward to trying out our new icecream maker, as soon as we finish making enough room in the freezer to get it in there!

I am looking forward to some more spring like weather!!! Yay for sunshine!
Man, a little chocolate and everyone goes comment crazy.
One word: Oscars.
I think you should keep the chocolate for your St Patty/Birthday party. I can't have a St Patty's without thinking of you.
More sun and better weather.
I am looking forward to getting less chemotherapy in March! After eight months of every other week, it just got changed to every third week! This almost seems like a vacation. Hmmm...time to go find some chocolate to celebrate!
Sunshine--definitely sunshine. It has been a very long winter with two record breaking snow storms back to back so March brings hope that spring is around the corner. OF course, March has been known to bring us some snow too and if that's the case some See's chocolates would brighten the day:-)

Bordeaux are MY favorite See's Candy too!!! I am looking forward to going to CA TWICE in March! Happiness to that one :) What a fun blog post! Enjoy your time in CA too!
Mark and I are going to see The Lion King at the Boston Opera House on St. Patrick's Day. We were kicking ourselves for not going to see Wicked, so we can't let this one pass us up. Mark splurged and got premium seating... center-ish of Row A in the Orchestra level. Sooo excited!
I'm looking forward to my 26th birthday this month!
I'm looking forward to my mother's 55th birthday! We're giving her a princess themed party :)

Yum! I got here from Amanda's blog.
I'm looking forward to planting our vegetable garden. We may actually harvest some vegetables this year!
I got here from Amanda Segebergs blog. Thanks for letting me join!
I love March because I get to celebrate my grandma's birthday with her. Last March I wasn't sure if she would be here for another year, but she is and it has been one of the best years of my life. Especially since she let me move in with her to help take care of her. How I love my grandma and love March because of her!
Oh, and I left a comment on my blog about this. Thanks for the fun giveaway!!
(My blog is private, but it's on there, I promise! http://kaylarae4.blogspot.com/)
This is so fun! I love your blog!! I would love to join in...
I love March because on the 28th there is a little known holiday... it is "Something on a Stick Day"! This means I will eat as many Corndogs as I want and not feel bad about cheating on my diet! After all it is a holiday ;)!!! (jessicanielsendesign@gmail.com)
I am excited for the time to get the garden planted and for all the giant tulips that I planted to emerge and give us some spring color- YAY Spring!!
