*UPDATED… DATE CHANGE TO FEB 17-23!
GREETINGS BLOG-O-SPHERE!
Holy Moly, I’ve missed you like crazy, but I’m happy to be back in the saddle and PUMPED about a little something I’ve got planned later this month. SO pumped that I want to invite YOU to join me in the excitement!
But before we can grab the excitement by the reins, I’m going to need a little help from you fine folks… my blogger fam.
Here’s what I’m thinking…
I would LOVE IT if I could get a huge group of bloggers to join me in a week full of link ups! Every day. A full week. Link, link, link it up!
Sounds fun, eh? BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE… but before the more, a little explanation!
If you’ve followed my blog for any bit of time you’ll know that I join in on the FANTASTIC Its Ok Thursday link up {compliments of the lovely ladies over at A Complete Waste of Makeup and Brunch with Amber} as often as possible. Obviously not so ‘often’ as of late, but it’s something I’ve really come to love, and miss when I skip a week. I’ve dabbled in some other link ups from time to time and love seeing all the fantastic link ups that are out there. So I started to think about how much fun it would be to dedicate a full week of blogging to the creative community-building brilliance of link ups! They are a great way to get to know fellow bloggers, share some blogger love, and find quirky connections from total strangers that help you to realize that you’re NOT a total weirdo {or at least not the ONLY total weirdo}. Love, love, love em!
Ok… now for the ‘more’ part of this brilliant {humor me} idea.
I need some help coming up with a list of the best link ups out there and I want YOU to share your favorites! Which ones do you participate in on a regular basis? Which ones have you always wanted to join in on but haven’t had the chance? Which ones have you just recently heard of and thought might be fun to link with? I WANT TO KNOW! Your mission, should you choose to accept it {and I hope you do!}, is to help me come up with the ultimate week of link ups.
Every day of the week. All the variety you can throw at me. Bring. It. On.
You’ve got two weeks to share as many link-ups with me as possible and I {along with anyone else who is interested in joining me} will spend the week of February 17-23 on a link up marathon of EPIC proportions! Leave links in the comments on this post, tweet it to me, write on the Life in these times… Facebook page. However you choose to pass along your favorite link-up, make it happen! What better way to get back in the swing of things than to pull out all the stops and really get out there with some super link-up fun?
So… bring on the Link-ups and please feel free to grab the link up week button to join in on the fun!
Until next time…

I’ll play! I used to do this when I first started the blog to drive traffic and find new blogs. It was a weekly thing where this gal made a list of top 5 *whatevers* and had other people make their top 5. Kate Takes 5 maybe? It’s been so long.

Huzzah! Yay, glad you’re playing! Any other link ups you think of to try, let me know!!!

Grrrrrl you know I’m in ;D I don;t really do a lot of proper linkups, but I participated in Bloggers for Movember and (dur) Festivus for the ‘Pressed of Us, and those were tons of fun! Maybe we can start a linkup with the top 5 dumbest baby gadgets? I can’t get enough of those.

OH that would be awesome! Let’s brainstorm on the baby gadget idea and if you see any link ups to add to Link Up Week, pass them along!
