ReplyDeleteDanielle, I was just going through all of the wonderful blogs involved in this generous giveaway and I got to your Instagram page and it hit me that I know you! I can't believe I haven't discovered your blog until now! I used to go to Temple before my husband and I decided to travel all over the states for his OR job. I knew Erin when we were all in about 7th grade I think, so we may have only met once or twice, but I'm so happy I found your blog! Hope you're having a happy Valentine's Day!

It's the middle of the night...I think I should wake up a little to make an big decisions but I know I would get a little something special for my little sweeties as things are tight around here and my son turns four on the 24th.

ReplyDeleteI would love to give the money to my local children's hospital. Their vision is big, but their financial needs can always be helped out ;)
ReplyDeleteMan, how sweet for anyone to win! And what a blessing you all will be in someones life. :) Well, I am sorry to say I wouldn't be using the money for anything super exciting and fun! Things have been tight and my husband and I have been struggling for a while now. This money would go towards the not-so-fun bills that demand attention each month. It would be such a blessing in our lives. :) BUT I am super excited for whoever wins this! What fun :) Thank you all for your generosity. God is good. :)
ReplyDeleteWith the $1500 I would put it towards paying off some bills!
