November Giveaways!!

It's my birthday month and in celebration, I will be hosting two little contests! The winner of each quiz will receive one 8' x 10' cow photograph taken by yours truly.

The first quiz will be posted Monday of next week and the second will be up the Monday after that. I will leave them open for 3-4 days since I know not all of you make it online everyday.

The first person who correctly answers all the questions will be selected as WINNER. (Of course, I will keep comments hidden until the quiz ends.) If no one answers all questions correctly, the person with the most correct answers will be selected WINNER. If more than one person answer the same number of questions correctly (but not ALL), I'm throwing everything out the window and will select the WINNER based on creativity (ahem, entertainment value).

In the meantime, you'd better get busy touching up your knowledge of the Homestead, Mama H, Cowboy H, all their 4-legged kiddos and anything in between!

Smooches!
