Love the blog... it makes me think about doing something similar. Kind of a micro diary. Although I probably don't have quite the inclination to publish to the world due to lack of polish and awesome photography. :-)

I couldn't adore either of these lists of favorites more. So sweet!
Happy Anniversary!

Holy Generosity Batman!
You guys are seriously great.
We had a foot long covered in the works at our state fair last week. But I still had a hankering to try a corn dog thanks to your state fair letter.
UH, this would be pretty amazing and very entertaining for my hospital stay :) Dreaded cancer!
Oh so much fun!

I just started reading your blog last week and I LOVE it! It's so refreshing. Thanks for all the laughs :)
I just recently found your blog and I love it! What a sweet idea for a giveaway. Thanks!

You just blew my mind peeps! Awesome giveaway!
I have been reading your blog anonymously for months now. I was interested in the Warrior Dash and someone directed me to your blog to read about your experience. I have been hooked ever since....and just now started commenting on posts.
Me and my hubby have been married for over 5 years as well. I leave love notes in his lunch every morning. Sometimes he will take pictures of them with his cellphone and post them on FB. Sometimes he keeps them to himself.
Your blog is so inspiring and so darn cute!Congrats on 6 months!
PS: Plenty of leg kicks are sure to ensue if we get that suitcase and the sour patch kids inside....hubby's fave!
Oh. M. G. Too much awesomeness in one suitcase. It will probably explode! Holla!

I'm a Texan living in Sweden, so it's always fun reading your blog. It makes me feel a bit less homesick. Thanks.
That is such a fun giveaway! I just love the combination of all of your favorite things. And the fact that Magic Shell is included...let's just say that as a fellow ice cream/Magic Shell lover, I am thrilled. Happy Monday ya'll!!
Love this!! Just another reason your blog is one of my favorites to read!!
Well holy give-away! All of that sounds Ah to the mazing! Happy Monday!
I'm always up for some new coffee. Looks like a fun box. :)
Y'all are such a gracious couple - everything sounds a.m.a.z.i.n.g.

Happy 6-month Anniversary! A million fist pumps for all of the awesome stuff in your giveaway! My fingers are crossed...
Nice! And the winner gets a sweet suitcase to boot (right?)!
Count me in.

(that is just me hoping that is what I will be shouting when I receive the e-mail stating that I am getting all that sweet shiz.)
I think that suitcase should stay within the zip code. Just sayin' that neighbors make good winners. :-)
i just recently found your blog & love it. so much fun! would love to win your favorite things!
I would love to win your box full of yumminess! Thanks for the giveaway!

This prize sounds awesome especially since it's your blog's 6 month birthday and my birthday as well! I'm pretty sure that deserves some fist pumps and leg kicks:)
You had me at Verve Coffee. Awesome giveaway! Love reading your blog; truly unique and inspiring in a fun live-your-life kinda way.

OHHHHH MYYYY GOOODNESSSSS! this just might be one of the best gifts to receive (if i win..wink wink...jk....but really....okay, i know you and the mr. put everyone's name into a hat and you are super legit about it all). this is so generous of you two!
WHOA. I love your favorite things. And I want them.
Wowza! This makes me leg kick and shimmy all over the place. Seriously, this would rock my socks.
What a special treat. I'm day dreaming now...
Hello! My name is Shae and I stumbled into your blog 3 weeks ago via Darby (love her!). I found your blog to be full of AWESOMENESS and I love it!!! I have enjoyed reading your letters everday. It is very inspirational to see you both interacting on your own blog and the love that you both share is very much indeed a blessing and encouraging to others.
My husband and I will have been married 2 years in March and the first few months were very tough. It was great to find ways for my husband and I to re-connect every week and set aside time for one another.
BUT, my favorite part about this blog (aside from learning about you guys) would have to be the music/videos!! We share the same taste in music and I fall in love with each song that you post. How do you find these artists and their songs?
Soooo, all the items in the gift baskets look fantastical but I am really, really, really wanting a copy of your faves CD-that would be AWE to the SOME!
Just wanted to say hey and your blog is 2 fist pumps and a leg kick! =)
You are both so awesome! It is so encouraging and inspiring to read your blog every day! Kelley and Annie told me about it. Happy 6 month blog anniversary! Amazing giveaway!!!
Since my husband and I seem to have very similar taste as you guys, we'll gladly enter the running for your basket o' goodies!
Love it! Can't wait to hear what's on the playlists!
Yes to the Please!!! It's such a delight reading about your lives together. I love all of your Loerke-isms. Keep 'em coming...
This looks like SOOOOOOO much fun! Congrats on 6 months!
Happy 6 Month Blogiversary! We (my husband and I) love your blog!
whoa. this made my monday... just thinking about the loot. and christmas.
OMG! You know I'm excited because I NEVER (well clearly ALMOST never) use text speak. This is AWESOME!!!!! And my little heart is going pitter patter PITTER PATTER (and my mouth is watering) at the incredible list you have put together for little old us. Congrats on the big 6, little m :)

alexandrasnyder6@yahoo.com
um, yes please! yes, please! yes, please! such good taste you two :) I mean...diviiiiiine.
Oh my! This is awesome!!
Hello Loerke's! My sister turned me on to your blog recently and she and I sometimes call each other just to discuss "Today's Letters" and the wonderfulness therein. You guys have a gift! (Other than the one you are giving away!) :)
Look at you with your 100+ comments! You're real cute.
so much awesomeness in one suitcase. i hope it hops on a plane to nashville!
SO FUN! What a great giveaway!
Dear Em,
I LOVE your blog... but it is even MORE satisfying when I read my sister's comments on the bloggy. Aren't sisters great?
P.S. If I win the suitcase, I will absolutely share with her....
Love,
Jessica
Oh my! You had me at peanut butter filled pretzels and absolutely killed me with bacon chocolate. Awesomeness.
Great idea for a giveaway! Em - a tip that I didn't see for you on applying mascara - I use my right hand on my right eye and my left hand on my left eye. I started doing this in high school (10 years ago) because I wanted to learn to be more coordinated with my left hand (mostly for basketball). It was hard at first (clean up smudges with a Q-tip) but I got the hang of it quickly and now can't do it any other way. So... improve your coordination AND look fancy :-)Reading your blog makes me happy!
Now all you need is a cool remix of "these are a few of my favorite things" from the Sound of Music... !!
you had me at TJ's peanut butter chocolate pretzels. i'm a good sharer...just fyi.
Happy, happy birthday!! I read your blog every day, whether you post or not!
Wowsas! I didn't realize the blog was so young. So this is the birthday where the blog gets to eat a mini-cake in its highchair all by itself and have a blast with the wrapping paper rather than the gifts that were wrapped in it?
Oh man!!!! What a kickass giveaway. Happy birthday wonderful blog!!!
I've already commented once but I just had to say that if your blog was just reader's comments it would still be the shiz...
BEST. READER'S. COMMENTS. EVER.
seriously...sometimes I come back for 2nd's and 3rd's throughout the day just to read the comments! You guys are blessed!
Roxors my Boxors!!! Too much awesomeness to fit in one super cool antique suitcase. Who doesnt love to be reminded of the upcoming fabulous Christmas season and all the gift giving?!
Wow, oh, wow. A suitcase of awesomeness?!?!? SIGN ME UP! I really love your blog - I'm addicted! I check it every single day! ;)
WOW!
Fa La La La La, La La La La....
Pick me! I am super curious to hear what's on your favorite cds. I love mixes!
I've been an avid reader for a while, but this is my first actual post. I think the gift set would be a very fitting reward for my bravery ;) love the blog!
three cheers for team loerke, 6 months of fantsticness, and woobie capes!!
I read everyday. Such a delight! Reminds me to have my priorities in line with husband and hearing how you two live your lives everyday is so fun to read about. Also, I must add that I too am a twin and I just could not imagine a life without twin and husband. Two built-in best friends. :-)
What a wonderful giveaway! I've been a lurker here for awhile, but I actually found your blog through Tim's PA school blog. I am currently in PA school (1st year) and truly enjoy reading about each and every adventure you guys have. I'm also signing up for the Warrior Dash in Florida! Thanks for sharing your advice and humor, it always brightens my day.
super awesome giveaway!!!
Congrats on the 6 months!
wowww this would be amazing. what a fun giveaway. :)

I only just found your blog this evening through my friend's blog: http://mymcmlife.wordpress.com, who recommended us readers to check you out "right now" if we never had before. So here I am, enraptured by all the creativity and personality you have expressed. I had and have a huge smile on my face from reading your letters form the camping trip. I wanna come with you next time!! But seriously, sweet blog! Thanks for being so honest and so stinkin' hilarious! Congrats on the anniversary!

Dang it, Em! It's 9pm and now I am completely consumed with thoughts of Legal Grounds Granola! Not cool to do to a pregnant lady. You're gonna force me to come over & dutch oven you just to keep things fair...
Woot woot! I need Tom's toothpaste and the rest would just be gravy, haha!!
Love you blog!
