Coloring Contest

The Radio City Rockettes are coming to a neighboring city next week. We had looked into tickets, however they were pretty pricey. We decided to wait on getting them. A few days later, we saw a coloring contest in one of the local newspapers--the winners get 4 tickets to see the show. Aliyah has won several coloring contests with our local newspaper so we thought we would give it a shot. She was SUPER excited to work on it. I would say she spent a good hour to hour and a half on this picture. It started out with just a tree with some gifts underneath. She decorated the tree and added a fireplace and stockings. It looked amazing.
Well, I figured we hadn't won anything since we didn't hear anything. We came home tonight and had a message on the machine--you won 2nd place. She gets a $25.00 gift card to Toys "R Us. Granted it's not the Rockettes, but she's excited anyway. I can't wait to see the other entries because they must be something else! I will have to post a pic later!
I guess we weren't supposed to see the Rockettes =).
