Drumroll Please........................................

WE WON!!!!!!

Yes, you heard it. That leprechaun suit along with the accompanying limerick that Travis and I wrote and Travis's marvelous cannonball that got the judges wet, helped us win $2000!! I guess all that sewing was worth it! (If you do not know what I am talking about, scroll down to check out the leprechaun suit.)

In case you are wondering, Travis entered a scholarship contest called the cannonball bash. He had to dress up in a costume, recite an original limerick that began with, "If I had 2 Grand I would...," then he had to jump in the water in his costume. Here was our original limerick, written by Travis and I.

If I had 2 Grand I would head
To go golfing until I dropped dead.
But since the wife I've been lov'n
Has a bun in the oven (large hand gesture over belly)
I think I'll buy diapers instead!

We tried to make it funny while also playing off of the judges sympathies. (Oh poor us! We are in med school and are about to have our second child. Boo hoo!) And it worked!! Yay!!!

Now...what to do with the money.... We probably should spend it on diapers.
