Bill and I decided to take on a new venture. Over the past few years Bill has put together a number of photo montage videos, each one better than the one before. After the last one, celebrating my grandmother’s 90th birthday, we thought it would be a great idea to offer our talents to the world. Thus Your Treasured Memory Productions was born.

We use the very latest, state of the art photo and video editing software to create all of our videos. Our editing software is the same software used in movies like Avatar. We not only work with photos, but video as well. Now those great little videos of the kids playing at the park or in the sandbox won’t go unseen on our computers. Bill has also gone to training to learn how to make the most out of the programs we use.

In celebration of our new venture, Bill and I are having a little giveaway here in Mommyland to give one lucky winner a FREE video with up to 60 photographs. This package is up to a $150 value. The video will include one DVD with your pictures set to music. Entries will be accepted from now until May 7, 2010, with the winner announced May 10, 2010. The winner will have until November 10, 2010 to claim their prize. The only thing you will have to worry about is getting your photographs to us.

I talk about it all the time, and today I have the amazing opportunity to do more than just talk about it. SparkPeople.com, is an amazing website and community of people who want to be healthy. In my humble opinion, the weight loss is just the icing on the cake (maybe that’s a poor choice of words for those losing weight). SparkPeople has taught me how and what to eat to keep my body fueled for optimum performance. With two little boys, I need all the energy I can get. Over the past year I’ve learned about food, exercise and setting “real” goals for myself.

Yesterday I received a very exciting email; an amazing opportunity to help “Spread the Spark” with an awesome giveaway. SparkPeople has been generous enough to give me a copy of the new book, The Spark. The Spark is an amazingly inspirational book written by SparkPeople’s founder and CEO, Chris Downie. Included in the book is a 28 day program that can only be found in one place; you guessed it, the book. Read about SparkPeople member successes and find the 27 “secrets to success”. Take a look and see that the Spark program really works, in The Spark you’ll find color before and after photos of a few member who have lost between 29 and 186 pounds. Reading The Spark has truly rekindled my my efforts to become the healthiest me I can be.

So here it is, you can win your very own copy of The Spark. This giveaway will run today through next Thursday (January 21st)…Here’s how you can win.

1) Become a follower of Life in Mommyland (1 entry)

2) Join SparkPeople.com and send me an email with your SparkPeople member name. Once I confirm your membership you get an entry. (1 entry)

4) Tweet about this giveaway and include @bouncermb in your tweet. (1 entry)

5) Leave a comment a day here at this post. Make sure your email address is on at least one comment. (1 entry per day)
