Birthday Girls List and winners!

This whole year is flying by! I can’t believe it’s already fall. And time to celebrate the September Birthday Girls! If your birthday or anniversary is in October, 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, here’s the scoop: 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 (you can also leave a comment on this post). 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 October birthday winner will receive a gift certificate to Mama Fu’s. The anniversary couple will receive one to Petit Bistro.

NOW ON TO THE SEPTEMBER WINNERS!

The birthday dinner winner for September is Tonya Wyler, who celebrated her big day on Sept. 25. She wins dinner to Bella Napoli in Bentonville, courtesy of NWARestaurants.com!

We’d also like to congratulate Misty and her husband who celebrated their 12th wedding anniversary on Sept. 12. They win the anniversary dinner to Outback Steakhouse, also courtesy of NWARestaurants.com. Congrats!
