It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!    

Our Traveling Gnomes were feeling festive and decided to setup the tree a little earlier this year!  (or maybe it never came down from last year...=X...)


These two little guys aren't asking for much.. all they ask is that you vote for "Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding" today and tomorrow.. and to share it with your friends!  

Maybe Christmas comes early for us?

There's only two days left in the contest!

WE MADE IT!! WE'RE A TOP TEN FINALIST!!

I've been through so much the last couple weeks-- traveling to Hong Kong to gain my fiance's grandmothers approval for her hand in marriage-- flying back to NYC the same day that Hurricane Sandy hit-- dealing with no electricity/water/communications during the blackout-- and plenty more which I'll spare you the details!  

It's really a blessing to know that my friends and family are all safe and sound.. and to know that we'll all get through this.  To be honest, the contest had almost slipped my mind until a friend asked if I had won.  I realized that a countless number of friends and family have big campaigning for us while we were away.  I thank each and every one of you who have been so very supportive during these times.  and you know what...

WE MADE IT!! WE'RE A TOP TEN FINALIST!!

It's finally dawned on me that there's a real possibility for us to win this contest!  So please please please-- lend us your hand once more and help campaign for "Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding"!

The next five days will be crucial!  We'll need every vote that we can get.. every man woman and child (at least 14 yrs old =D).. your neighbor.. your postman.. the coffee stand guy.. you get the point!  Thank you all so much!  Our fingers are crossed!  VOTE GNOME WEDDING!

Day 13 of “Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding” Campaign!

Good morning!  
It's Monday and we're not too cheery are we?  Well, I have two pieces of great news!  

1)  The London Bridge has not fallen down!!
2)  "Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding" is STILL a Top 7 Video!! 

Don't tell me you knew that about the bridge already... because I was convinced when I was a child that the bridge was kaput!  Our Traveling Gnome had flown out to London just to set the record straight.  

Here's a picture of our buddy and the London Bridge.  




There you have it, proof that the bridge has not fallen!  
But we still need your votes so we don't fall out of the Top 7!

Day 12 of “Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding” Campaign!

Happy Sunday-- a day of worship for many of you!  
In Barcelona, whether or not you are religious, it's highly recommended that you visit The Sagrada Familia cathedral designed by Antoni Gaudi.  His whimsical style is responsible for some of the most beautiful properties in the city.  Here's a picture of our Traveling Gnome with The Sagrada Familia... 

...kind of looks like a building wearing Gnome hats right?

Day 11 of “Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding” Campaign!

We all already know that Mickey's favorite movie is "Amelie" but don't you want to know what MY favorite movie is?  It's not hard..you only need to spend 5 minutes with me before I start quoting from Zoolander!  One of my favorite scenes from the movie is when Derrick's dad is ashamed of Derrick being a Mermaid in a commercial and Derrick comes back to correct him!

"Mer-man! *cough cough* Mer-man!"

Here's a pic of our Traveling Gnome with the famous Mer-Lion in Singapore!

Day 10 of “Our Big Fat Gnome Wedding” Campaign!



We are SO very thankful for all the support we've received!  Being part of the Top Seven Videos really makes us wonder how our lives will be impacted by this trip.  Can we really win?  Where will we go?  What will we see?  What will we eat?  Will life ever be the same after this trip?  When stuck day dreaming about all the possibilities I like to look at this photo of our Traveling Gnome at the Pyramids of Giza... one of the Seven Wonders of the World.





Please dream along with us!!  Vote today and everyday by following the link below!!
