  1. I was so excited about this but blogger thought it was best to delete my comment *cries* I hate it when that happens! I hope I can keep the excitement for round two!

    YIPEE!!! I think #1 is probably bad luck but maybe I'll benefit! I'm a follower, I love your blog! I'll be tweeting about this, facebooking about this, sidebaring and giving you a blog shout-out! Tally it up!!! :)
