Ashley Madsen said...

Hi Jessica,
not to bother you, but I have a favor to ask. I have recieved a couple phone calls of people wanting to donate more to the auctions; even some autographed sports items that are still to come. However I do not have many people that check my blog on a regular basis. I normally keep it pretty low key. Do you have any suggestions on how to get the word spread more? I've emailed and texted, but many don't really understand the whole "blog" thing. Any help would be great, I'm not sure what to do. Thanks

Ashley Madsen said...

haha... ok, now I think I'm totally confused!

I have some people that want to put more stuff on my blog, that are pretty big things. I'm not going to start those until next week when I have them. I was wondering if you know any more ways to get people to know about the auctions because no one really checks my blog. Maybe I'll just tell cjane.

Oh and also I know many of Christians siblings; they live in my parents ward, so if you want, here is his sister's blog my mom just told me about. She is a little more detailed with updates too.
