Pay it forward!

Blue-Eyed Bride posted this challenge today about Paying it Forward. She learned about it from Alexis at Our Journey to Forever. I was one of the first 3 posts on her blog, so I'm paying it forward to you.

Here are the rules to the game that Blue Eyed Bride got from Mojito Maven: The exchange focuses on doing an act of kindness without expecting anything in return other than that the recipient will, in their turn, pass the kindness along and pay it forward.
This is how it works... I am going to agree to send something fun, cute, & nice to the first 3 bloggers who post a comment on this entry. In turn, those three will post this information and pick 3 people they want to send something to and so on. Unfortunately, due to postage costs, I can only pay it forward within the United States. If you are interested in participating, be one of the first 3 bloggers to leave a comment!

The little something you send can be something you made, bought, were given or found. Just a gift that will make the person smile. So if you're interested, be one of the first three to leave a comment. You have to agree to pay it forward on your blog by posting this, linking to me, and paying it forward to three more people.

So as I await my trinket from Blue- Eyed Bride...go ahead and post! I'll send you something fun! I think, what a better time to do this than just a few short weeks till my wedding, to brush off the selfishness for a few minutes and focus on making someone else happy! So post away my friends, post away!

Count me in wedding twin! I would love to have the chance to spread the love around. It's time to start brainstorming what my thing will be!

I will spread the love. my gift may be a little odd to recipients but I think this is an important thing to do, especially today, such a terrible day economically for so many. not meaning to be a downer for your site! I'll follow through on promise and pay it forward on my blog this weekend, hope that is not too late.

Sure I can try paying it forward.

I can always find some fun random things.
