mermaid give-away

***This give-away is now closed. Thank you for all the nice entries! Click here to see the winners.

Last week my girls turned into fish.

You see, a sweet fellow blogger sent them each a "mermaid tail" to swim in, and they were over the moon about it.
They have had so much fun with those things. They have been used now by every girl cousin in the area and all the neighborhood kids.

They are what I'd call a huge hit around here.

This was about how Max feels about all the mermaid fever going on:
(I think he was jealous he didn't get one too :)

So now I get to do a give-away. I get to help give three of those spiffy things away to cap off our summer with a bang.

To see more tails click on the "finfun" website here. The winners will be able to pick their tails from what is available on the finfun ebay site here (Custom orders and limited edition tails aren't included in this giveaway).

There are three ways to enter to win:
{post edit note: you can do all three of these giving you three different chances to win...I don't think I made that clear because some people have been just leaving all three in one comment which cuts down the chances. I'm just saying...}

1) Leave a comment.
2) "Like" Fin Fun Mermaid tails on Facebook (their page is here) and then come back and leave a comment that you did it.
3) Post about this giveaway on your own blog and then come leave a comment here with a link to your post.

So, three ways to win three different mermaid tails. And really, what little girls' imagination wouldn't love to run away with something like that?? I wish they had these when I was a kid!

I'll announce the winner on Friday.
