Fun! I have a great photo of a double rainbow over my old house with the fall foilage.
how cute! when i was in 2nd grade and hanging upside down from a jungle gym, i saw a double rainbow hanging from the sky and i was in awe! :)
Oh I just have to win this!!!
My most RECENT rainbow story happened 4th of July weekend. We had a strong but short storm come through Smith Mountain Lake (luckily we brought our wii to keep the kids entertained in case of bad weather). As the storm cleared and the rain started heating to vapor we literally saw a rainbow end in our back yard!!! No leprechauns or pot of gold unfortunately but it was soooo awesome seeing one of nature's most beautiful phenomenons up close and personal.
I love rainbows. They have an amazing promise attached to them too :)
I was just admiring this shop the other day! So, my rainbow memory....the double rainbow craze was in full force last summer while I was pregnant, so while I was in labor last August and my husband was desperately trying to keep me calm and comfortable he brought the laptop over to the bed so I could watch the double rainbow video and remix :) It made me laugh for a minute at least!
I delivered a beautiful baby girl on Friday and when I got to my postpartum room, there was a beautiful rainbow outside. It was just perfect!
Oh, that is so sweet!
Last summer my sister and I were taking a road trip with my three kids. I had to pull off the interstate to nurse my youngest after many stressful miles. Then I looked in the rear view mirror and saw the end of a rainbow. We turned the car around and all sat mesmerized (and quiet!) watching it until it disappeared. It was magical. If I won this, I'd save it for my sister's first baby.
Oh boy, I'm such a sucker for all things rainbow. I mean seriously who doesn't love all those colors looking so great next to each other. I used to pour out my bag of skittles, sort them into piles by color and then eat them in order. First red, then orange, then yellow...Yeah I was a nerdy kid, but my candy always lasted longer than my brothers'. HA! When I was in high school my favorite pillow case had a rainbow on it, I took it on the team bus all the time and got teased plenty for it, but I didn't care. My rainbow was cool!
What if my favorite moment includes that video? :) Just a few weeks ago my family and my husband's sister's family were at a double header. The second game got called because of rain. We had to make a mad dash through downtown OKC in the pouring rain to our cars with 4 kids-two of them babies. (A lot more fun than it sounds, actually.) If you've seen an Oklahoma storm in the spring, you know that it's a lot of intensity in a little tiny spot. We didn't have to drive far before we were at the edge of the clouds. My husband looks up to see a double rainbow and of course says, "Double rainbow!" But at closer inspection, it was a TRIPLE rainbow!! What does it mean??? P.S. I like how you call it The Facebook. :)
Gah, I have to win this! My baby girl is turning one this fall and I just started working on her rainbow invitations today :)
When I was younger I was in luurve with rainbows. I had some rad 80s rainbow striped sheets growing up, and of course I had Lisa Frank EVERYTHING (trapper keeper anyone?) and a Rainbow Brite birthday party. My 6th birthday my mom used a Wilton cake pan to make me a shooting star cake with a rainbow tail ;)
Rainbow memory... only one comes to mind but it's a good one. My husband and I were driving a moving truck literally across the country from Washington to Wisconsin.. we were welcomed to nearly each state with some new crazy weather - storms and snow (in June!) and lastly nearly a tornado in southern Minnesota. The moment we crossed over the bridge into our new home state, we saw a rainbow! We figured we must have made the right decision as Wisconsin welcomed us with a rainbow!

No way!! A double rainbow all the way!! :) These mobiles are adorable.

I remember I LOVED Rainbow Bright :) I wanted a pouch of dusty stars to make me rainbow bridges and a horse with rainbow hair! :)
YES! I desperately want this! My favorite memory was when my best friend was moving cross country and we got to meet up in the middle of her trip at a wedding! Her 'good' shoes were no where to be found, so she wore the gaudiest bright pink glittery rainbow shoes with a beautiful dress. Of course, we were 10 and it was the coolest thing ever :)
Rainbow Bright was one of my all time faves growing up! But this mobile is just fantastic!
I was looking at a rainbow with my 5yo son when he said that rainbows are made when the rain washes the colour out of the sun. Best description ever! (imo)
I was just looking at this site the other day and these mobiles are amazing! I would love to win one for my sister, who is expecting her first child! One of my rainbow memories is when my husband and I were dating. We saw a rainbow, and ended up driving to find the end of it - and succeeded (sort of)! Anyways, we're not millionaires now - there was no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Oooh I would love that! I'm pregnant with my first baby after years of trying so it would be perfect. <3
I've seen a double rainbow years ago when I was younger and it just finished raining. They were both beautiful and dark colored so you could see it very well. Another time I was looking up in the sky and around the sun I saw a full rainbow! It completely circled the sun and was so pretty. I was in elementary school at the time so I don't recommend looking at the sun like I did. lol
We saw a double rainbow just the other day! A beautiful treat after several days of scorching temps and some crazy storms. That cloud mobile is just sooooooo cute! I love it!
My Dad let me play with his old camera, and I took a picture of a rainbow when I was in elementary school. I was so excited when it actually turned out :-)
One of my mums best friends died a few years ago, naturally my mum was devastated but not long after the funeral my mum saw one of the most beautiful rainbows she had ever seen. She told me when she saw that rainbow she felt a peace she had never felt before. a few months later my mother and I had to make an important decision and soon after we made it the rainbow appeared once again. My mother told me it was her friend letting us know everything was going to be ok. I made me feel great that my mum had found peace and she was right, everything was going to be okay.
I had the ULTIMATE rainbow experience on the 01/01/2010! It was storming all of new years eve when I was in hospital, awaiting the birth of my first child. When I woke up it had stopped raining, and there was an awesome rainbow and the midwife said to me "Well, you may not find a pot of gold at the end, but it will be something very special"... and sure enough, my daughter was born on New Years Day, at the end of a rainbow :)
I'm now preggers with my second child, so a gorgeous mobile would be wonderful - I love the fact that there are some that are unisex - as we don't know what we are having but would like to decorate in unisex colours :)
Love this! Rainbows remind me of Rainbow Brite... which reminds me of Strawberry Shortcake... which reminds me of her cute chocolate friend. Mmmm, chocolate.
I hope this isn't too sappy, but when I was 11 i lost my mom. Ever since, there have been so many special occasions where a rainbow would appear. We saw a double rainbow on the evening of our wedding rehersal. It laid exactly over the spot where we said our vows the following day. There was a giant rainbow outside the hospital window after the birth of our daughter, and another double rainbow on my 30th birthday. I have always found these little signs to be comforting, a sort of reminder that perhaps she is still present. We are expeting our fourth child in December and it would be so sweet to have this mobile over his crib as a constant reminder of her love and presence.
My mom has a major thing for crystals, and she used to hang them in the windows in our house. We'd have a bajillion rainbows dancing on the walls every afternoon!
I've been thinking about prisms (and finding one to make rainbows on the wall for my baby to look at!) all day - loved these as a kid!
we see a lot of rainbows over the river by my house...I just love looking at them!
ykatrina at hotmail dot com
one of my favorite rainbow memories is from (don't hate me!) a movie--Pollyanna, to be exact. While cheering up the town, little Pollyanna ends up at this crotchety old miser's house and brightens up his day too--and she does it with prisms! After watching the movie, I wanted a bunch of prisms in my room! The prism room hasn't happened for me, but I still love that movie. Can't wait to watch it with my little one someday.
Such a cute mobile! Does a childhood infatuation w/ Rainbow Brite count? As in a full bedding set including canopy over my twin bed....so awesome! (Back in the day :) I loved all things Rainbow and think I even had some rainbow shoelaces to go w/ my rad 80's rainbow theme. Gotta love it!
my baby is now 2 and i would want one for my own room
somewhere over the rainbow...
I remember in fifth grade I got glasses, and was so surprised to see that you could actually see individual LEAVES when you looked at trees. When I got home from the eye doctor that day, it was raining; my sister and I went out to play just as the rainbow came out, and I remember sitting on the wet grass just staring at the colors in awe at how bright they looked now that I could see them.
Love them all! What a beutiful mobiles!
I remember when I was a child, everytime it was raining and it was sunny at the same time, my sisters and I were looking for the rainbow untill we found it. It was so exciting for us...
Once on the way to school in the morning I saw almost a complete rainbow and then I kept looking at it and it turned into a double rainbow!! It was so gorgeous against the dark colored sky. I told the Lord, thank you for this beautiful creation and promise, but if you keep this up I might end up running off the road :]
Thanks for the giveaway!

One time there was this huge storm and my family was all in the cellar, but I couldn't find my dog. I ran out to find him and he was in the house. It was too late for me to run back so I took cover in my room. Before I knew it my house was lifted into the air and my dog and i were flying though the tornado. We went over the rainbow and landed in a magical world filled with little people that took care of me instead of the other way around. And there was candy and ice cream and popcorn and chips and chocolate and french 75's. None of it made me fat and I was never hung over so I decided to stay on that side of the rainbow. The end.
I saw my last rainbow on our trip up to Zion's National Park to be with my family! I like to sing my baby girl a song about rainbows and she loves it!
My Great Auntie used to hang crystals in her window so rainbows would fill the room when the sun shone. I have such wonderful memories and loved the rainbows so much that I've done the same thing in our kitchen and my son and daughter always dance around when the sun catchers shine rainbows on our walls! :)
We saw a rainbow the other day, whic was surprising since it hasn't rained here in a long time. It was great to be able to show my 3 year old daughter.
I just saw a rainbow when I walked outside about an hour ago and saw the best double rainbow 2 days ago. We have been having afternoon thunderstorms everday for over a week, so lots of rainbows going on here.
The day after I moved into my new home in the country, feelings swooping back and forth between 'yay' and 'holy cow what have I done moving from the city to corn fields all by myself am I crazy?', I saw a rainbow. I was driving back from the general store (yes, my closest shop is a general store - corner store, hardware store, video rental, post office, and fertilizer centre all in one:) and a big old thunder storm had just finished when there, smack in front of me was a big, beautiful rainbow. It seemed to be starting on the road in front of me and, I kid you not, seemed to end just about where my house is situated. That's when I knew I was home.
My favorite memory from a rainbow is the wonder the first time my daughter spotted one after a storm. Priceless!!
How can I not have a Rainbow Bright moment?! That was one of my favorite cartoons and dolls growing up. I remember also my parents putting up this quilt on my wall that had a unicorn and a rainbow on it. I was actually just thinking about that the other day. Mahalo for the chance to win!
I had my daughter natrually (no drugs) with a method called hypnobirth. The hawiian version of "Somewhere over the rainbow" played in the background. My daughter (now two) loves the Wizard of Oz.
We now have a son and I would LOVE a mobile above his crib.
Well, hmmm...the only thing I can think of at the moment is a fun piece of rainbow striped fabric that I want to make into a fun summer dress for my daughter. Kind of lame compared to all of the other cool rainbow stories. But, ummm, I also really like Skittles! :)
These are SO cute!! My favorite rainbow memory is when I went to Hawaii... and there was this HUGE and very very clear rainbow. We kept driving towards it and it just seemed to get even brighter. I took a picture but it didn't come out as it looked. I long to see it once more. :)
Recently, on a trip to Yosemite, my husband and I hiked up the Mist Trail and were greeted at the top by a beautiful rainbow in the waterfall. It was a stunning sight to see and well worth the hike!
Loves the Dreamy Rainbow Mobile... So lovely and cute.. I would like to win it for my baby boy..
My rainbow memory.. hmm.. I used to have a rainbow crystal pyramid, present from my aunt.. It create a heavenly prisms on the walls and ceiling.. Very pretty.. but my brother accidently break it while we are having a housekeeping few years back. So sad..
But, I had replace one with a yellow crystal. It still create a prisms on the walls but not as pretty as the previous one. :)
Gorgeous mobile! My memory of rainbows is going down to the marina in my home town and watching it come up over the "sleeping giant". Its sooo beautiful!
This is a new memory, but almost every time we drive from our house to my parents', there's a rainbow or a double rainbow over their neighborhood! My two-year-old points at them and says, "bowe wowe." :)
My daughter saw her first rainbow the other day after a sun shower not only did we then paint rainbows on the path when we got home but she learnt to say the word at 19 months old. A very special moment/memory. Would love this for the window.
I would love to get this for my friend's shower!! My rainbow memory is seeing one right after my hubby proposed to me :)
I love rainbows! I saw one hours after my daughter was born.
Instead of a rainbow story, I have a rainbow hope. In May of 2010, our daughter was stillborn due to a cord accident. We are currently in the process of trying to conceive another child through fertility treatments (she was a fertility baby too). In the baby loss world, the baby born after a loss is called a rainbow baby (in reference to the rainbows that come after storms). This mobile would be perfect because I'm wanting to incorporate a rainbow or two into the new room without over doing it.
I was driving back up to college in Boulder quite a few years ago when I was caught in a sudden and vicious rain storm just north of Denver. Now, Coloradans generally know how to handle snow on the road, but we aren't the best when it comes to rain so after struggling to see and hoping that my little car wouldn't be washed off the road, I pulled over with the rest of the freaked out travelers and waited it out. In perfect Colorado fashion, it was gone in ten minutes and, still shaky from the experience I got back into my car only to find the biggest, brightest rainbow over the highway - one of those great rainbows where you can see the whole semicircle. Still with me ten years later.
Ah, I remember the summer storms when I was little! My dad would call my brother and I into the garage to wait out the storm. We'd sit and wait for the storm to pass and every time we would run out of the garage looking for the rainbow afterwards. It was like a little reward for our patience!
I'm pregnant with my first baby, and have been looking for a mobile! My mom had this really beautiful window decal of a rainbow and she said she brought it into the delivery room and stared at it while she gave birth to me. Since then, it was put in the window of my bedroom at home and is still there.
I remember seeing a rainbow over the green hills at my house as a kid. My mom then explained to me the colors of the rainbow. I still remember ROYGBIV! I would love to win this for my baby due in december. Thanks!
We have prisms in my son's room - he loves to look at the rainbows while we're changing his diaper.
a rainbow memory?? the day my baby was born (may 28th, 2010) it was raining, I went to the doctor and he told me that my baby's heart was beating way to slow, I had no signs of being into labor anytime soon (no contractions, no nothing), so we schedule a c-section that same day, I went out of the doctor's office and was overwhelmed, I was going to be a mom a few hours later!! and then I saw the most beautiful rainbow ever, it was like lying on the mountains... it got stuck in my head during surgery, I felt so blessed even though it was not the birth I planned :D
oh my gosh, i loooove it! i remember when i was little, and we used to turn the sprinklers on outside when it was hot and angle them around until we could find a rainbow (or two). we'd get quite wet in the process, which was totally fun and added to the loveliness of the experience!
My rainbow memory is from long long ago, when I was little I thought rainbows were the way angels came to earth to help people who needed it.
This would be perfect for my second sweet little girl's arrival here in like 10 weeks!
I don't have a specific rainbow memory, but rainbows always have this special kind of power or magical feeling every time you see one. It's like you're seeing one for the first time, every time.
When I think about rainbows I can't help but remember the story of Noah and how God promised that He would no longer flood the earth like that again. To represent His promise he gave us the rainbow and to just think that we still see His promise today reminds us exactly how marvelous He is.
Not a real rainbow, but my favorite pair of pants when I was a kid was a white pair of jeans with a rainbow embroidered on the back pocket.

Those mobiles are GORGEOUS!!! And just in time for me to start really thinking about baby's room decor... mmmmm :)
My rainbow moment was in a random Walmart parking lot... and suddenly just stopping (in my car) to pull out my (crappy) cell phone camera to attempt to take a picture of the most BRILLIANT rainbow... which SO didn't come out (shocker there). No one believed it was as gorgeous as it was - or that it was, in fact, a double rainbow (though the little one was really faint). But I do remember being awe-struck by it :)
Well since you guys already used my double rainbow moment I will have to go to my first time in Hawaii. It rained and then this gorgeous rainbow came out over the beach. It was the most gorgeous one I've ever seen!
I love those mobiles by the way! I think mobiles are good for any room!
These mobiles are fabulous! We are expecting our first little love in Sept and don't have one yet for the baby. Would be great in the green room--we don't know boy or girl.
My husband & I had an outdoor wedding in May 07. Just as we were getting ready to walk down the aisle a storm came thru. We switched to cocktails and waited it out-thankfully it was short lived. When we did have our ceremony there was a rainbow behind us. IT was awesome.
More recently we attended my cousin's wedding in Ithaca. He and his partner got married the day after NY passed the same sex marriage legislation. The rainbow appeared just before their ceremony. IT was just right!
right now rainbow makes me think of my precious 2 year old snuggling up with me on the couch and asking for the same My Little Pony episode that we have seen a million times - where Rainbow Dash flies so fast she makes a "sonic rainboom" and gets her rainbow cutie mark! ha ha While, I could go quite a while without seeing that show, the snuggles are worth it!
Hmm.. my first rainbow memory was going to Hawaii for my dad's 50th and I have vivid memories of all the rainbows I saw! Where we lived we didn't see many! Also, just the word 'rainbow' still summons up visions of Rainbow Brite...
I remember going through a stage in kindergarten when my best friend and I only drew a rainbow under black crayon so that you could scratch through it and It was all different colors underneath.
My four year old loves rainbows. While I don't have any real rainbow memories as a kid (other than Rainbow Bright - ha!) I know my daughter will. She loves me to "draw" rainbows on her back at night - telling her all the colors as I go. She even corrected me once - I got to purple and she said, "Mom, it's indigo!" Such smart little stinkers kids can be. We also really love the book, 'A Rainbow of my Own' by Don Freeman - beautiful illustrations.
Awesome giveaway. I can remember being really little and looking for rainbows after the thunderstorms...finding the good after the scary!

love the mobile, growing up i used to walk my brother back from school and on winter days (we don't realy do winter here...some rain and its sunny again)we used to play rainbow sighting in the rain puddles...you have to see it first to make it count for you...long time ago :-)
Last summer my daughter who was 2 at the time drove right into a rainbow (So it seemed) she loved it!
lynzward@hotmail.com
The most beautiful rainbow scene I have seen was, then double rainbows after a summer rain, over the Bosphorus(Istanbul) between two continentals
Last summer we were driving on our road trip and the kids found the end of the rainbow, they squealed and wanted to get out and see if there was any gold!
When we built our house in 2004, it was the wettest, rainiest season we'd had in a long time. Which of course made building a slow and muddy process. Just a few short weeks after we moved in, we saw a double rainbow. Makes for a wonderful sight!
Just my daily entry. I want this so bad!
i love rainbows, and the meaning behind them =)
thisquiethour AT gmail DOT com
It's rainging here today :( Gloom and doom :( Hopefully there'll be a rainbow at the end :D
I remember the first time my daughter said "rainbow." She still calls them "bainbows" :) Cute!

The big storm in our area missed us, but we had a beautiful double rainbow! The main part was even a full rainbow.
It is pouring now and I hope to maybe see a rainbow soon :]

We just saw a huge double rainbow the other day on the way home from our midwife appointment, where we heard the heartbeat for the first time!
Our baby loves mobiles, from ceiling fans to actual mobiles. I have one over the changing table to keep him happy while I take care of business. :)
Your "double rainbow" comment made me think of The Gregory Brothers' song, Double Rainbow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MX0D4oZwCsA - when my husband first played it for me we watched it over and over, laughing and crying.
Very coincidental that I was watering the garden this morning and there was a rainbow in the mist. I was just thinking how long it had been since I'd actually seen a rainbow! My rainbow memory from childhood would have to be those rainbow sweaters that had puffy sleeves...remember? haha! Not very sentimental, but the truth! My baby would LOVE to have this!
I used to have a rainbow hot air balloon mobile that hung from the ceiling when i was a little girl. A small teddy bear sat in the basket. I remember watching it spin around, mesmerized by the blurring of the colors. It was comforting to me. When I grew up, my parents had taken the hot air balloon out of my room and I never knew where it had disappeared to, but as a teenager I wasn't too concerned. A few years ago, my grandfather died and when I was looking through the attic to find old photo albums with his pictures, I found the old hot air balloon mobile in a box and all my feelings of being a care free little girl came flooding back. It was so comforting.
I love prisms! I bought a teardrop-shaped one to hang from the rearview mirror of my first car and have transferred to every car since. I love seeing all the wee rainbows that pepper my car's interior :)
my room was lavender and i.HAD to have the bedspread with the double rainbow stripes. and the 3/4 sleeve rainbow shirt. oh yes and unicorns. it was all about the rainbows and unicorns. would love this mobile for my (open minded)boy's room!
We have a vintage beveled glass window that hangs in a window in our stairway. When the afternoon sun shines in it projects little rainbows all over the walls of the stairway. Hadn't thought anything of it until our 3 week old daughter became fascinated by them when I was bringing her upstairs. She could sit and stare at them. Made me appreciate the fact that I get to see rainbows almost everyday :)

Driving to California, the sky was very dark behind us and a double rainbow ahead that touched the ground on each side. It was amazing!
I had a rainbow trapper keeper!

I always loved coloring rainbows when I was younger. I liked all the different bright colors!

Love this. Rainbows are always so beautiful and the perfect ending to rain.
Rainbow memory: I purchased rainbow stripes Baby Legs for my first daughter and I loved watching her little legs get chubbier and chubbier. Now they are on my third little girl and I'm enjoying watching the stretch as her legs get chubbier and chubbier!
I'm old!!! About 30 years ago the at womens church group I belonged to we exchanged gifts on birthdays and Christmas as Secret Pals. My secret pal gave me a bunch of stuff with rainbows designs. I received an ashtray (have quite smoking since then 4/28/05), a set if 3 refrigerator magnets, a bath towel, a hand towel and a few other things I can't remember what.
I still have the ashtray it's used for earrings now. Two of The refrigerator magnets have survived (4 moves and 6 refrigerators). The hand towel and other stuff are long gone.
The towel? I still have the towel. It has seen a lot of useage. In fact it just got washed yesterday. It has held up much better than it's owner over the years. I think of Pam my secret pal when it gets used.
I'd love to win the mobil for my baby brother and sister in law. They are expecting their first child in December. The towel will be 31 then.

My favorite rainbow memory is driving home in the rain from my fertility doctor's office. I was in tears because I was pregnant, but tests had shown some bloodflow problems. As I drove out of the rainstorm, I saw a huge double rainbow across the sky, and I remember wishing on it that everything would be okay. I think the double rainbow was an omen, because we now have happy, healthy one-year old twin boys!
haha remember Punky Brewster & her sidekick Glomer? My brother & sister told me I could find glomer if i went to the end of the rainbow. I hiked halfway across the farm, which resulted in a stern talk from my parents and no Glomer.
I remember once, when I was a child, standing in the sprinklers and seeing a full circle rainbow. It went all the way around me and was lovely. Recently we had huge double rainbow here in San Diego. Lots of people posted photos of it on facebook. =D
We had yet another rainbow last night! I just wish it meant cooler weather. All it really means is that it just rained and added yet MORE humidity to the air to make our 90+ temps miserable.
I absolutely love all things rainbowish!

Daily entry Rainbow Memory #2
Back in the 80's I worked for a large bank. I don't remember what year it was but they were having a 125th year Annaversary Celebration. They held a decoration contest for each Branch. We went with a rainbow theme. We mad rainbows and hung them from the ceiling. We painted rainbows on all the windows. We had rainbows everywhere. Alas we did not win.
I'd love to win this for my baby #4, Hugo, he's one month old today! It would be nice to have something so cheerful to look at!
I like the Jimmy Dean commercial where the rainbow is so blue so she eats a biscuit and then her color returns and the little leppie comes out and puts his gold by her :]

rainbow bright! my favorite when i was a kid :)
Growing up my mom used to give each kiddo a piece of candy when we spotted a rainbow. Needless to say after a rainy day we were seen running around the yard seeing who could spot one first!
my favourite rainbow memory was "chasing rainbows" in our old truck on our way to go camping as a kid. the sky was always beautiful!
Ah, we have a very fresh one: B-Day cake I baked for my son's 1st birthday!

Looks soooo toxic, but was soooo yummy. And his face after eating the mini-version... Perfect for the baby album. :)
When I was much younger, I took ballet. For our recital, we danced to "The Rainbow Connection" holding a big (cardboard?) rainbow, it had handles on each side. I'll never forget that prop....and the song is still one of my favorite Muppet songs! Thanks for the giveaway.
Another day... another rainbow memory? CARE BEAR STARE!!!!!
I love rainbow snowcones when I was younger and even now.
