To say I've been overwhelmed, honored and humbled by all the support I've gotten in the last 2week or so on my #GiveLove campaign, the post on why I'm Pro-Life and my Southern Portraits series , would be an understatement. When I blog, I never want to be preachy or showy. I simply want to show the beauty around me and express the things I love. If I happen to spread love while doin' so, than yay! If I put a smile on someone's face, than that deserves a yay as well. And if I show God's love than that deserves an even bigger yay! So thank you for bein' inspired, allowin' me to show love, and lettin' me tell my story. I have gotten numerous emails, tweets, messages etc so I've decided to do a Give Love feature this Coming Valentines Day. You can either email me pictures of the letters you are postin' or tag me and the hastag #GiveLove. I will try and round up as many as I can and do a feature post on the 14th. If you haven't left any letters than feel free to do so between now and the 13th. The post will go live Friday morning the 14th. If you have any other questions are need help gettin' started then just shoot me an email and I'd be happy to help ya.
Here's where I've been leavin' letters
Saturday: #Givelove East Texas style. Saturday I went with bestfran número duo and we visited bestfran número UNO. We put up a bunch of letters. Before we went out I told her, "take me somewhere were I won't get shot." HA! This is a small park by the local High School where people love to get engaged. The next picture is the gate entrance to the football field. I couldn't access the tractors so I left it on the sign. And then I left one by a war memorial for fallen soldiers.

Sunday: a spot by my house were people love to fish
Monday: Took my little seester out to lunch before work. Left in a quant little Sushi shop at the mall.
Tuesday: Hidden in the mystery section of the book store.
Thursday: Water fountain
Friday: Random purse in Ross.
Saturday: Somewhere in the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo.
Sunday: In a pew at my church
Monday: Random cart at Home Depot
Tuesday: Verizon Fios Box in my childhood neighborhood I also had some of my nursery babies help make a few cards. If you find one that looks like a four year old wrote it, it's because they did.

ReplyDeleteI am late to the party, but just found your blog through the SITS girls comment challenge. May I share this idea with a group of girls I do a collaborative blog with and continue this movement? We are spread out across the U.S. and it sure would be fun. We will of course give you credit on the blog and on my blog that I have. I love it!!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this! What a great way to brighten up a stranger's day. I'm definitely going to try this:) Stopping by from your SITS Girls Tribe!
