I am out visiting your fabulous party posts! I had hoped to be much further into the list by now – but I am not moving too fast. I like to take my time at each of your sites and read about a bit.
So please don’t hate me that I haven’t got to your party yet. I will one day soon – although I imagine it will be a month before I am finished visiting all 900+ blogs.
I hope you all had a great time this week. (I also hope you didn’t let the huge list stress you out! Remember the goal was never for you to get to everyone, but just to have fun finding some new blogs to enjoy.)
Thank you so much to everyone who participated in the party! It has been such a blast and we appreciate your support so much. A party is only as great as the people who attend – and you all have made this one fantastic party!
Tomorrow (Friday) will be the big prize give away. We will begin the draw at 2pm Eastern (11am Pacific) and then try to sort out who wants what prize. We hope to have the list of winners posted at 9pm Eastern (6pm Pacific.)
Make sure you check in to see if you are a winner! With over 100 prizes – your odds are pretty great!
As well, in case you have forgotten, you can head over to Amydeanne’s and download your beautiful party favors. (We don’t want anyone to go home empty handed!)
And – as I mentioned the other day – we will be announcing a special prize giveaway (I will announce the prize tomorrow – but it is something from one of our stores!) to our newsletter list. If you are not already on the list – you can sign up here. The winner of that draw will be announced March 23, 2007. (Please note that this is different than the FeedBlitz email subscription field you’ll find in the right column. The FeedBlitz email subscription will send you emails whenever we update our blog. If you are not already subscribed to our feed through Bloglines, etc., you’ll want to sign up for both features and stay connected.)
EVERYONE on our newsletter list is eligible for this prize draw. You do NOT need to be a blogger or post anything. And no worries – we will not be clogging your email with tons of newsletters. Because we have been so busy, it has been months since our last newsletter. At best you will receive 6 newsletters a year, but you will receive notification of special events and contests at 5 Minutes for Mom.
So I will see you here tomorrow night for the prize draw – don’t forget to come check and see what you won!

I just popped back in to say a warm “thank you” for hosting such a phenomenal party. I met some cool new bloggers, and we’re chatting back and forth already.
I hope all your new contacts translate into lots of new friends and even a few business $$$. You have a huge presence in blogdom, and you are definitely doing your “marketing” job well. Congratulations!!! Hugs, e-Mom

Girls, I can even imagine how you will get through 900 blogs. I am finally returning my visits. Not sure what happened to my past week, but I still have 40 blogs to visit. Glad that I didn’t had 900 comment 😆
I think you girls did an incredible job hosting this party.
Blessings to your weekend…

Thanks so much for holding this party! It was a great idea and I have had lots of fun visiting some new blogs. I am very new to this whole blogging thing and it has been a blast having some of my first comments coming through from the party!
Thanks again,
Jeanette

Thanks for hosting this party, it has been oh so fun! Thanks for granting me permission not to visit all of them! (LOL!)
Barb says
Well, gee, Janice. You don’t have time to visit 908 web sites? I don’t know about you. LOL
Impossible! It seriously would take weeks and weeks. Trust me, every single person who linked here understands that.

Thanks for hosting such a great party! When the arty first started I was confident that I could mingle with everyne BUT the list was only at about 230. Now it may take me months! :)Either way, it’s been fun visiting with so many great people!
Kari says
Life ended up being horribly busy this week and I didn’t get to visit as many as I wanted but don’t plan on stopping just because the party is winding down. I have read so many good blogs and have bloglined so many to return to! Thanks so much for starting this!
