We’ve had another wonderful year, and we have a lot to be thankful for. We’re especially thankful for all of you, and the support you give us by reading, commenting, emailing, and supporting Friends of Maddie and March of Dimes.
To thank you all for the love you’ve continued to show our family, we are announcing our third annual give away of $250 to Amazon.com to a random reader!
This giveaway is open to every person on planet Earth who reads this blog and follows the directions on how to enter. Sorry, aliens who don’t read!
Enter by leaving a comment. You may leave one comment per day until the contest ends at 12pm PST on Wednesday, December 17th, 2014. You can also get a bonus entry by liking The Spohrs Are Multiplying’s Facebook page – just leave another comment saying you liked (or previously liked) the page. Winner will be chosen by Random.org. Prize will be delivered via emailed gift certificate to Amazon.com (if Amazon isn’t available in the country of the winner, we’ll work something out). If winner lives outside of the US, prize will equal $250 US Dollars (sorry, countries with a stronger currency).
This post is 100% sponsored by the Spohrs.
Happy everything!!
UPDATE!
We have a winner!
Al! I am emailing you, and you have 48 hours to reply or I’ll pick a new winner.

Jenny says:
I liked your website FB page.
I have an easy recipe that is a winner, if you’re still interested in new dinner ideas.
Italian Beef:
Rump roast or Chuck roast / whichever is on sale
1 packet dry Italian dressing mix
1 packet onion soup mix
Small jar pepperoncini with juice
Cover with stock (I used the 4cup chicken stock in a box)
Slow and low, let your roast go! Seriously, it needs to go at least 12 hours on low. I put it in the garage so I don’t stink up the house.
Shred with fork. Serve on Italian or pretzel rolls with a slice of provolone and the au jus. Serve hot pepper relish on the side.
Amanda says:
Thanks for doing this! Merry Christmas!

I was hoping to come down here and comment something cool like I’m the 850th person to comment or something, but I guess I can only say at the time of which I post this comment I’m the less glamorous 853rd person to comment But anyway wanted to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas. I have been an avid reader since early 2011, I came across your memorial video to your daughter, Maddie, when I was trying to find some ideas to document my daughter’s growth (kinda like you do with Annie and James’ birthday videos and followed the link from that video and have been intrigued by your blog ever since. So here’s to a very Merry Christmas and may 2015 bring you much happiness!
Samantha says:
P.S. I know you said to make a new comment but I thought I’d just reply to my own posting….I have already “liked” your facebook page.

AuntieMip says:
Heather and Mike…you are special in the world of bloggers. And it is why I love you. And bad firm starting two sentences with “and”…but I digress. You are also so very generous. What I really appreciate is that this gift is from the heart and not your own pockets. I have grown very weary of monetized blogs where every post is sponsored. It feels like you never truly “know” the blogger. I think you are the real deal and it keeps me coming back.
So if my comment enters me swell. But please know I have everything I need in this life. So if my name were to be chosen I would love for you to donate to a charity of your choosing. Or pick another name at random if the donation is not allowable. Either way, thanks for always keeping it real and making me want to come back for more!
Happy Christmas friends.

Maybe suggest to “sub commenters” not to do so, since the “reply to comments” comments don’t have numbers on them. Does that make sense? Unless you’re somehow counting those too. Somehow. Have a happy weekend!

Thanks for the chance to win this giveaway!
All of your children are beautiful and very happy! I hope that your children stay healthy and when they’re older and decide to have children of their own they will also be healthy. Maddie was a very happy child and a very bright baby! My oldest daughter is 7 and although she is physically healthy she was born with a syndrome that affected her brain and caused learning delays and impaired vision. In my first few weeks of pregnancy a random genetic mutation occured where she developed Septo Optic Dysplasia. I really believe it was caused by environmental factors not yet pinpointed as the source. I feel down sometimes but then think about children and families who have it worse, children who have cerebral palsy and can’t walk or play, or children like Maddie, who because of her weak lungs died too soon. Hopefully, more advances in medicine will be made quickly.
Thanks again!

I loved Annie’s drawing for Santa, that you captured a picture of her giving it to him with her telling him all about her story and that he tucked it in his suit jacket and told her he was taking it back home to show Mrs. Claus. It brought a tear to my eye! So precious. Merry Christmas indeed!
