LIVE GIVEAWAY, Disney on Ice for Allen, Texas!

11.17.2010 by Girl on Fire //

If you are in the DFW area you may know that I am running a Disney on Ice giveaway here.  Thing is, I got some great news yesterday!  I was told I could give away an additional set!  So this post is for the second set of Disney on Ice tickets!  Same time, place and date!

This is for 4 tickets to be used at the Wednesday, November 24, 7:30PM performance at the Allen Event Center in Allen, Texas.  Keep in mind that this is the NIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING!!! Do not enter if you can not make it!

So let’s do this!

Mandatory First Entry:  SUBSCRIBE!  I have so much awesome stuff coming up, why would you want to miss it?  So Subscribe and save yourself the heartache! Leave your first comment below letting me know that you subscribed our are a current subscriber.

Bonus Entries:  Leave a separate comment for each entry!  Talk to me, ask my questions, sing to me, tell me jokes…it all works!

I’m not putting a comment number on this.  Since it is a local giveaway that could take all day to get enough comments.  So instead At 6 P.M. Central Time TODAY I will close the comments and randomly draw a winner.  It’s up to you how many entries you get in between now and then! Get busy!

    • Brandy says

      November 17, 2010 at 10:10 am

      Yikes, I don’t CD anymore so I didn’t get to try that out. Emma is 4 🙂 Also, not sure on the milk stains. Our day to day stuff it has been great, and all the experiments we did were awesome.

  56. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:38 am

    I think the blog thing would be fun! I work outside the home two days a week as an ER nurse. ( night weekends, so I can stay home with the kids) I love it, but I also started doing a few product testing with companies and that is fun. Try new products and they pay u! Awesome! Guess that’s what u do only to the extreme!

    • Brandy says

    • Brandy says

      November 17, 2010 at 10:42 am

        Bwahaha… we are stationed at Dyess AFB, here in Abilene it was insane.. if anything it was fun just to go and people watch lol! People were grabbing stuff out of other peoples carts, you couldn’t move more than a foot at a time, and people were getting into stuff before it even went on sale! We headed out at 2 a.m. and ended up home at 10 a.m.! Madness!

  60. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:41 am

    @ Amy our last ac bill was only $70 in a 2600 sq ft home. We try hard to conserve electricity. And we are with star Tex. It feels a little cold today though!! Maybe ur in a warmer area!

  62. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:43 am

    Brandy I have a blog but not a lucrative one! U could help me get involved? I will get back to u…seems like I could maye do it as a hobby? I love product testing and giveaways!!

  63. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:43 am

    Look at this sweet, sweet picture of Nate holding a baby chic. He LOVED them! We had a “down on the farm” event for preschoolers at church.

    Games ROCK! Sarah and I were at the mall yesterday and there is a new “temporary” Toys R Us Express and they have games that are all a couple of dollars cheaper than Walmart or Target and they had some cute games that I have never seen. I told Sarah Id like to get a nice, sizeable game collection. WE LOVE GAMES!

  66. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:47 am

  67. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:47 am

    My daughter started kindergarten this year. It’s been interesting. The Second week of school her and another little girl cut eachothers hair! My daughter had long beautiful curls and ended up with shoulder lenghth hair :(!

    Amy we try to unplug things to stop the phantom drain. We also turn up and down the heat and ac and simply adjust. It can be done, it is just a little cold in the winter ..at first. Our home is only five years old …not sure if that helps. And i always look at powertochoose.org. Helps get the Best electricity prices.

  76. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 10:58 am

    Looks like u guys do homeschool. I just don’t think I’d be a good teacher. I can do simple help, but when they started getting past 4th grade math…just don’t think I’d be able to help there. Ha!

    • Brandy says

      November 17, 2010 at 11:05 am

      It’s so easy and Texas is the place to do it. You would be amazed at what kids learn on their own when given the chance!

    Amy I didn’t cry, I did mope. Lol. I thought for sure we’d made it past the hair cutting age. Apparenlty the other little girl had cut her hair once before. Who knows who started it.

  80. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:03 am

    Amanda…YES you could! In our area there is PLENTY of help! There is a homeschool store that offers classes. Also, plenty of tutors. If I cant do it, I can for SURE find someone who can!

    K so my two year old finished his bowl of cereal and is now eating a little pile of dry lucky charms. He starts pointing to his nose and putting his finger way in there. I said Bryce did u shove cereal in ur nose?! He said “that one” and keeps pointing to his nose. Luckily a minute later he sneezed it out. Flash backs of when my daughter shoved a piece of a balloon(way worse than cereal) into her nose! Ugh kids. Gotta love em AND try to keep them from killing themselves!

  87. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:08 am

    Im OH SO GLAD this is a local giveaway! Not as many people trying. 🙂

  88. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:11 am

    Happy early birthday! My have to hop on my lap top. My son is about to fight me for my I phone. He works it better than most adults. Thier minds are little sponges!

  89. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:13 am

    Can u tell I really wann win. Maybe I’ll win one set and Amy will win one?!!! Good times!

  90. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:16 am

    Lest u think I’m doing nothing…I always always multitask! Just finished feeding my newborn. She is so warm and snuggly all curled up ony lap! Love it and hate to move but my son obtained the box of lucky charms and is ONLY eating the marshmellows!

  91. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:17 am

    LOL Amanda..that is funny..BUT SCARY! Im glad he sneezed it out!

  92. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:20 am

    Yes Brandy…happy early birthday! Mine was Sunday..I wanna win these for MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT. LOL

  93. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:21 am

    Brandy is the other give away drawing tomorrow?

  94. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:21 am

    By the way Amanda, go enter all her other contests if you havent already! Ive won several over the past year. They arent hard to win!
    I just entered the Lawreys and Dominoes contest.

    By the way Brandy. I forgot to enter the MAIN entry first and entered 2 bonus ones before I realized..is that a NO GO?

  95. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:22 am

    Hey, I ONLY eat the marshmellows too!

  96. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:24 am

    UGH! Gotta do some school now….be off and on.

  97. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:24 am

    Now I’m cleaning and typing it’s a little hard, but not too bad! Come on Disney on ice!

  99. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:27 am

    Cool! I wanna win. Seems like u can enter and enter but never win. I used to know a lady that entered contests as a hobby. She won things from time to time but with stamps getting so expensive it’s not as cheap as it use to be. Seems like u could just okay the dollar lotto.

  100. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:29 am

    Working on Awana right now actually. I can sorta multi-task.

  101. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:30 am

    Brandy u may not even be reading these anymore…but are all ur tickets together?? As far as seating? Just wondering if u will meet the winner? And know how crazy we are about wanting to win?!

    • Brandy says

      November 17, 2010 at 11:38 am

      Yes the 4 pack is all together.

  102. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:32 am

    I can do cyber monday but black friday not so much!

  103. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:35 am

    Hope u guys take advantage of web sites like groupon and daily deal. I love saving money! $$$ guess that’s a hobby.

      I signed up for Groupon ,but I haven’t looked over/into it much. I don’t really ‘get’ it I guess. I am trying to START saving $$ cuz I’ve never spent time trying to do so..and I could definately use a ‘lighter’ budget!!

  104. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:36 am

    We have 8 more hours of this?!

  105. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:38 am

    Huh. Guess I should fold this laundy. Don’t want to but Amy is right…it IS never ending. Should be happy we have clothes…and I am, but when it comes time to fold and put away…no thanks!

  106. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:38 am

    Brandy has contests so often, if you enter them..you will win eventually! The live ones like this take the most time but the regular ones take me literally like 5 minutes to enter so why not?

    And most of the time you can “tweet” everyday of the contest so your chances go up!

  107. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 11:39 am

    I was just thinking that too!! 6pm is a long time from now. Btw- where are u going on vacation?

    • Brandy says

      November 17, 2010 at 11:41 am

      You can leave and come back, the more comments you have the greater your chances. I have a program installed on my site that will randomly pick a winner from the comments.

    • kimmerbee says

      November 17, 2010 at 3:47 pm

      I went there this past year too! It was fun because we went with family, but the area seems to be having a difficult time recovering from the hurricane. That part was sad. Being on the beach was fun!

  124. Christina Keller says

    November 17, 2010 at 12:16 pm

    These tickets would be the most awesome early Christmas present ever lol! I don’t think my kids would know what to do. We have never seen a Disney on Ice show!

  161. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 2:32 pm

    sure you may say…it’s only one thirty but this has been going on since 9 am. maybe i would be good at one of those crazy competitions where you have to keep your hand on the car to win it. only thing is you can’t go to the bathroom. that would NOT be good!

  162. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 2:33 pm

  164. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 2:40 pm

    homeworker?? ha that’s what i get for doing ten things at once. trying to get Lauren to roll over. pretty sure my other two had already rolled over by two months. we do tummy time, but maybe hasn’t been much because she has reflux and my two year old tries to ride her like a horse. not cool.

  165. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 2:43 pm

    my son is in LOVE with toy story. anyone else watch the same movie once a day? sure, i said I’d never do that when i had kids…but that makes you destined to do whatever you said you weren’t gonna do!

  166. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 2:46 pm

    you said to get busy. apparently you had no idea how much we wanted to win. amazing how much I can do while breastfeeding. and amazed at what i will do to win tickets for my daughter. don’t think i’d try this hard if it was just for me. silly huh?

  185. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 3:51 pm

    So above you mentioned telling you a joke. This isn’t a joke, but a funny true story. I was a kindergarten aide my senior year of high school. We did block scheduling so I went to the kindergarten every other day for the school year. I loved it….

  186. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 3:52 pm

    So in the class we had different areas. An art area, a house/kitchen area with grown up dress up clothes, a water/sand area, a building area, etc. One day I was walking around to the different areas quietly talking to the kids while they were playing…

  187. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 3:53 pm

    I got to the house/kitchen area and I noticed that one boy was dressed as a man with a tie and blazer, the girl was dressed up with a woman’s dress and high heels and another boy was also dressed up with high heels and a purse and a woman’s jacket. I was a little curious because they all were playing along with the same story line…

  188. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 3:55 pm

    So I asked each student what they were playing and what character they were. I asked *Michael (*all names changed) and he said, “I am the daddy. I work at a building and tell people what to do.” I asked *Marie who she was and she told me she was the mommy and she worked sometimes as a teacher but she also took care of their babies. I asked the other little boy, *Chris, who was also dressed as a woman and he said,….

  189. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 3:57 pm

    “My name is *Linda and I am the daddy’s girlfriend but mommy doesn’t know it!”.

  190. Amanda says

    i’ve thought about putting my daughter into ice skating classes at allen ice skating rink. i hear it’s pretty fun. I let my daughter pick out one activity a season. this year she played soccer. the first game she said ….mama i don’t like soccer because you sweat! by the end of the season she was great!

    Brandy, What gave you the idea to start this blog and do you enjoy doing it?

  196. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:05 pm

    we’ve done gymnastics and like that but it’s a little far from my house. and during rush hour traffic…not good.

  197. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:06 pm

    mind you i can babble all day. not sure if that’s a good thing or not. but true.

  198. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:06 pm

    My niece just called and asked me to come over and play. She’s such a sweety! My husband and I have been unable to have children so my nieces and nephew fill in that gap a lot. They are the most awesome people EVER. I am very lucky! So I am going to post a few more times to try to win and then head over there. Can we post from our phones?

  199. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:07 pm

    If i could pick any where in the world to go on vacation right now….i think i would pick the Bahamas or Hawaii. There are probably better places…but I love the beach and sand.

  200. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:10 pm

    Love that my mom still cooks Thanksgiving dinner. so much work and love put into it. of course we try to help, but mom really likes to cook. I’ll probably brink a pie or two and of course Green bean Casserole!

  201. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:10 pm

    I can’t believe it’s almost thanksgiving…it really creeped up on me this year.

  202. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:11 pm

    Favorite Christmas song? Mine is “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” by Judy Garland. Her voice was AMAZING!

  203. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:12 pm

    Does anyone else on here read Pioneer Woman’s blog? Ree Drummond? She is so funny. She’s doing a Thanksgiving Throwdown with Bobby Flay. It airs tomorrow night. Should be good!

  204. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:13 pm

    http://thepioneerwoman.com/
    Her blog is a lot of fun and informative. Especially when it comes to photography!

  205. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:13 pm

    my daughter is in a special kindergarten that she goes to called spanish immersion….spanish all day and english all day the next. she likes it, but i think it may be a little overwhelming. hope she decides to continue each year.

    • kimmerbee says

      November 17, 2010 at 4:16 pm

      That would be an amazing advantage for her if she does continue with it. Spanish has become integral in the workplace.

  206. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:15 pm

    Oops, actually the Throwdown episode is tonight on the Food Network. Sorry!

  207. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:15 pm

    my son loves to dance with me…he is two. i love to see the smile on his face when we are dancing. wish that my husband liked to dance with me!!!

  208. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:17 pm

    do you ever give aways concert tickets….I’d love to win Taylor Swift. She has good music and seems to a good role model for young girls.

  209. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:17 pm

    *crickets* I am sure I am being quite annoying posting constantly, I just really hope to win. Trying to think of what else to comment about.

  210. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:20 pm

    i am truly not a psycho…..i just really wanna take my daughter and her cousin to this and nothing is better than FREE.

  211. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:22 pm

    what the world needs now…is love sweet love. it’s the only thing that there’s just too little of. my daughter is making candy necklaces. she has little activities she can only do when the little ones are asleep..so she is ecstatic.

  212. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:24 pm

    wonder what i should cook for dinner. something that i can make between typing on here. now….to get back to that laundry…

    You are my sunshine,
    my only sunshine.
    You make me happy,
    when skies are gray.
    You’ll never know dear,
    how much I love you.
    Please don’t take my sunshine away.

  215. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:25 pm

    Oh my goodness! lots of missed responses!

  216. Amy Dawkins says

  218. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:27 pm

    Have I mentioned today that I really, really, really wanna win these tickets!

  219. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:29 pm

    I used to live in Utah and this time of year I miss the snow and the mountains. We lived there for 4 years and I loved seeing the snow backdrop in our windows behind the Christmas tree. Something I miss living here in Texas. I grew up here, but living in Utah for a while was fun!

  220. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:30 pm

    😉

  221. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:30 pm

    Fold laundry, leave comments…gonna be doing that now.

  222. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:31 pm

    Ok, I am going to head to my sister’s house to see the kids and play with them. I will try to comment from my phone. You guys have a fantastic day if I can’t comment further! Seriously, good luck to everyone!

  223. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:32 pm

    My wife asked me to comment on here to possibly win some tickets for the kids. Neat opportunity.

  224. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:33 pm

    My daughter had a dental injury at school he other day and no one called me?!! How crazy is that. The nurse thought she just busted her lip and didn’t even look in her mouth!

  225. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:33 pm

    We have two dog and two cats. Abby and Rocky are our dogs, Nick and Nicky are our cats. Feels like a full house at times.

  226. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:34 pm

    Watching a movie right now eating pretzels. It’s my day off today. Unfortunately, my leg is hurting so I haven’t been able to do much!

  227. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:35 pm

    Okay, seriously, I am leaving now to go see the kids. I know I said was leaving…just wanted to post one more time…..LOL!

  228. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:35 pm

    I think I’m too frugal to become a gambler…which is good because the occasional lottery ticket is fun. But addiction is BAD 🙁

  229. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:37 pm

    Can’t wait for the day I can fit into my prepregnancy clothes. After three kids can’t say I’ll ever be back to my “normal” shape! 🙁

  230. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:39 pm

    I like the way u make me laugh…I like the funny things u do! I like the smile on ur face! I like the SPRITE in u! Catchy isn’t it?

  231. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:43 pm

    It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. Agree or disagree?

  232. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:45 pm

    My daughter is growing like a weed. I think she is out growing the five point restraint. Man those ones built for adults are expensive! They should really put five point restraints in all cars ..they are alot safer! It’s hard to fit more than two car seats in most cars!

  233. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 4:52 pm

    One more day with u! One more hour! Love that song! Finished folding ..now to Put away!!

    November 17, 2010 at 4:59 pm

  246. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:03 pm

    How funny you say that Amanda! At the park today I was talking with some friends and said I think every car should have 5 pt. harness’ for seatbelts. How expensive can it be?!

  247. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:04 pm

    5 pt. harnesses are so much safer you would think it would be worth it.

  248. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:04 pm

    I can not wait to retire I plan on doing a lot of fishing and a lot of things I could not due to the hours I worked.

  249. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:04 pm

    November 17, 2010 at 5:05 pm

  262. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:11 pm

    Seriously. This past year has been rough as far as extra activities go.

  263. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:11 pm

    A 30% pay cut didnt help anything!

  264. Amy Dawkins says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:12 pm

    So anyway, it would be nice to get to do something like this for the kids..

  265. Amanda says

  274. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:21 pm

    We are considering the park, but it looks so windy! Plus we went yesterday. But the

  281. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:29 pm

  282. Amanda says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:29 pm

    Amy…gotta get an iPhone!

  283. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:30 pm

    Red Box is doing pretty good with having newer movies to watch and they only cost $1.00. Such a deal!!!

  284. kimmerbee says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:31 pm

    My niece is pretending to ice skate with her skates on. That’s love! See she would love, love, love these tickets!

  285. Harry says

    November 17, 2010 at 5:32 pm

    Blockbusters is trying to get more competitive by offering special deals. One of the deals was on renting a video game for the week. Good deal!!
