wet wednesday update

it's a wet wednesday morning here in HB
and
the perfect day to let you all know about what's going on with a few of the blogs i read




danielle at dinosaur toes is doing a knick knack exchange

i'm super excited about it!

danielle explain's it here

Here's the idea: Each participant will be paired with another, and we will send that person a little something that tells them a bit about us, along with a handwritten note about it (and you). Send them something you make, an item you collect, apolaroid from your stash, etc.


i hope you all join in on the fun!




my sister, keely, has a fun idea up her sleeve as well

rate my space

she tells more about it here

I thought it would be fun to play "rate my space" bloggy style..I would pick a room in the house..such as the living room, family room, dining room, bedroom, etc..You would email a picture of your space to me..I would choose the top 10 spaces..You all would vote on what your favorite space is..I would show the top 3 on my blog and then I would vote for the best one and the winner of that space would get their blog highlighted on my blog for a week..


i think this is a really fun idea... especially for those of us who love decorating and seeing how other people decorate.... 

play along with me!



ALSO

there are some awesome giveaways going on right now that i don't think you'll want to miss out on!

brandi over  at mucho mucho bueno bueno is having a FABULOUS giveaway



i actually really really really hope i win this one 
but if one of my readers does then that'll make me just as happy!



last but not least, lauren from the little things we do is having a giveaway too!

i also wanted to let you know that we got a call from dan's doctors office yesterday...

some of you read this post
if not, then take a peak so you know what i'm referring to...

dan had a sleep study done the monday before last and the doctors office called to let him know that his CPAP was abnormal and that they couldn't tell him more until he came in... we're not quite sure what that means... and it sounds a bit ominous but we're excited at the idea of maybe, finally, figuring out what is wrong with him and why he's had this constant headache for ten months...

he meets with his doctor on monday

your thoughts and prayers would be appreciated. although we want answers... we don't want scary news either.

thanks guys.


enjoy your wednesday!

xo,
kass

ps. wow, almost 100 followers - thanks to all of you for reading... you have no idea how much it means to me! (well, if you're a blogger then you probably do) and because i'm so appreciative i will be doing my GIVEAWAY either this friday or saturday - hopefully friday!!


keep your eyes peeled!

Thanks for talking about the exchange, kind lady! I want to win Brandi's giveaway big time, and since it got cold again, I'd be happy to win Lauren's as well! I think your sister's idea sounds fun, so I'll be sure to join!

I hope you get some answers from the doctor, and I hope it's something minor and easily treated.

xoxo times infinity,
snow
