If you know me, you know I love birthdays. Love, love, love them.

My boss, Kevin Eikenberry, knows how much I love birthdays and will be out of the office on the big day (January 19). So, we had this crazy idea to ask our friends (that would be you) to help me celebrate.

You can do that by giving us your most creative suggestion on how to make this my best birthday ever.

And, because Kevin and I are both pretty competitive, we decided to give prizes for the most creative responses. (Wait a minute, that means I’m giving out presents on MY birthday…what’s wrong with that picture?!? haha)

How many prizes? Not sure, but if there are lots of great responses, there will be lots of great prizes!

Send a note, sing a song, write a poem, shoot a video, take a picture, whatever. There are only two rules: be creative and don’t be creepy. And I’m the only judge. (Flattering the judge would probably work in this contest!)

Leave a comment here, leave me a voicemail (317.387.1424 x2), connect with me on Twitter, send me an email (jenny@kevineikenberry.com). Basically, whatever makes the most sense to you, works for me!

Finally, I just want to say, that while I do love, love, love birthdays – especially mine – this does feel a bit self-serving. 🙂 So, I promise to put together a ‘report’ of all the great ideas I receive so you can benefit from them too.

I’m so excited to be starting another trip around the sun. And so grateful to have the opportunity to celebrate with you!
