Yes, it seems early, but in order for me to actually do a series, it takes a bit of work to get all the review/giveaway items.    In April we did the Home Office Organization Series. I knew that May would be too busy with my WeBlog Conference, so I didn’t play anything then.  [...]

<p>Yes, it seems early, but in order for me to actually do a series, it takes a bit of work to get all the review/giveaway items. <img src='http://3boysandadog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' title="icon smile photo" />   In April we did the <a href="http://3boysandadog.com/?s=Home+Office+Organization+Series" target="_blank">Home Office Organization Series</a>. I knew that May would be too busy with my <a href="http://www.weblogconference.com/" target="_blank">WeBlog Conference</a>, so I didn’t play anything then.  June will be “In The Kitchen With Kelli” and I need to start making plans now for July. <img src='http://3boysandadog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' title="icon smile photo" />   August will be Back to School.  So, since I couldn’t make up my mind, I thought I would turn to my readers.  Please take a few minutes to vote!</p>
<p><script src="http://static.polldaddy.com/p/3232940.js" type="text/javascript"></script></p>
<p>Also, if you are a blogger that would be interested in teaming up for something in July, please drop me an email! I have been thinking about doing another series with a couple bloggers like I did for my Spooktacular Soiree, but just can’t make up my mind.  Besides, no one has asked me to work with them on a blog series. LOL!</p>

Here’s what I need from all my wonderful readers.  [...]

I love when I learn that people are actually reading my blog!  &#160; Remember the guest post on Halloween Costumes earlier this month by Kim (now a contributor)?&#160; Well, I just got an awesome email from a reader about that post:

<p>I love when I learn that people are actually reading my blog! <img src='http://3boysandadog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' title="icon smile photo" /> &#160; Remember the <a href="http://3boysandadog.com/2009/10/howdy-to-homemade-costumes/" target="_blank">guest post on Halloween Costumes</a> earlier this month by Kim (now a contributor)?&#160; Well, I just got an awesome email from a reader about that post:</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://3boysandadog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/GrantFallFestival.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="Grant Fall Festival" border="0" alt="Grant Fall Festival" src="http://3boysandadog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/GrantFallFestival_thumb.jpg" width="330" height="221" /></a>Hi Kelli,       <br />I ran across your blog several weeks ago and fell in love with the bull riding costume.&#160; So, I made one for my 4 yr old.&#160; It was a hit at his pre-school fall festival.&#160; Very unique and creative. Thanks for the great idea.       <br />Regards,       <br />Kendra</p>
</blockquote>
<p>When I asked her if I could use her pictures or if she had a blog post I could link to, here is what she said:</p>
<blockquote><p>I don&#8217;t have a blog.&#160; I just lurk on other people&#8217;s blogs and use their ideas.<img src="http://gfx2.hotmail.com/mail/w4/pr01/ltr/emoticons/smile_teeth.gif" width="19" height="19" title="smile teeth photo" alt="smile teeth My Reader Puts a Spin on a Post!" />&#160; Sure, you can use my pictures.&#160; I didn&#8217;t use spray paint on mine because I waited until the last minute and did not want the box to smell.&#160; I wrapped it in white paper and glued felt pieces all over the top.&#160; I did smear craft paint on the boots.&#160; I also cut the top off of a pair of jeans and hot glued them to the top.&#160; It was easier for me to let him wear jeans instead of bull legs.&#160; That way the teachers could just take the box off and he wouldn&#8217;t need to change clothes.&#160; By the time I got to the festival, the bull was missing the nose from his face.&#160; But everyone got to see and enjoy it before his untimely demise.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE hearing from my readers!&#160; Did something inspire you?&#160; Are you loving a contest win?&#160; <a href="mailto: momof3boys3702@mchsi.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Email me</a> about it and include pictures.&#160; You just might make it on my blog!</p>
<p>Isn’t Kendra’s little one totally cute!?</p>
