Hours... that's how long it took me to pick winners for this contest. HOURS. I can't believe how many adorable, lovable, squishable (yeah, that's almost a word) animals we all have! So cute!

This won't be the last time we do this though. I promise. I had too much fun with this post to stop here. I think once a day we should all upload a pic of something. After this contest, I will start to regularly add these "Getting to know INO" posts so everyone can meet one another. 

Back to this contest, I couldn't just pick 10. So, I chose 16. You have three days to vote and to get your friends / family in on the game. Who will win the $100 gift certificate from Amazon.com?? It's all up to you now.
