Thanks, July Girls, for sharing your birthdays with us. August Birthday Girls, it’s your turn! E-mail us at mamas@nwaMotherlode.com (or comment below) and we’ll put you on the list for next month.
If you’re new to the Birthday Girls List, read this: During your birthday month — or wedding anniversary month — send us an email letting us know about it and we’ll throw your name in a special party hat. At the end of the month we’ll choose two winners at random and you’ll get a birthday or anniversary dinner on us, courtesy of NWARestaurants.com!
Winners will be announced on the first of every month. And we’ll also run a list of all the birthday girls celebrating out there!
The August winner will enjoy a birthday dinner out at Fred’s Hickory Inn. The anniversary couple will win a gift certificate to Crabby’s Seafood Bar and Grill.
The birthday dinner winner for July is Stacy Jines, who celebrated on July 12. Happy Birthday, Stacy! You win dinner to Petit Bistro in Bentonville!
We’d also like to congratulate Trisha Bright and her husband who celebrated their 11th wedding anniversary on July 10. They win the anniversary dinner to Bonefish Grill, courtesy of NWARestaurants.com.
Trisha said she initiated the first date with her future husband. He and her dad were working at the same company and she got tired of waiting on him to call. So she called him instead. Their first date was July 10, 1997, and they married exactly two years later. The Brights have a 7-year-old daughter.
“I never let him forget that I was the one to make the first move,” Trisha said.

My husband and I are having a big year!… We both turned 30 earlier this year… Our baby girl has turned 3…. and we’ll be celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary August 12!…. We would love to win a date night!
My husband and I celebrated our 15th anniversary Aug. 5. We would love to try out Crabby’s!
My husband and I will celebrate 40 years together August 16th (and we both turn 60 in October!). When he proposed on a college campus in Florida I was surprised and so I told him I would have to pray about it. The Lord did answer and gave me such a peace through Psalm 37:37 KJV. It says “Mark the perfect man…for the end of that man is peace.” He is my soulmate. I am a blessed woman. I would really love to bless him with this date at Crabby’s!
August 30th is our 13th wedding anniversary. We would love to try out Crabby’s.
Thank you,
My birthday is August 26th. It’s the most fabulous day of the whole month 😉
I just had mine on Aug. 19th!
(birthday that is)
