"U" Are the Winner of the Bumpy Landings Contest...


Congrats to Angie Lofthouse "U" are the winner!! She has won a copy of Bumpy Landings by Don Carey. I will be letting Don know that you have won the copy from my blog's contest. I will let him make arrangements of how he wants to get your copy to you.


Can you name 20 words that start with "U"? (Don't use a Dictionary!) Also, set your timer and give yourself only five minutes. It is harder than you think when you are being timed.

    23 words in 5 minutes! (I timed myself and also had a song playing while trying to think of some words)....not bad, if I don't say so myself :)

    I do noticed that we have a few similar words though, like "Unbelievable" and "Ugly".

    This was a nice exercise. It reminds me of a card game that I used to play with some relatives.
