can't wait to see who wins!
I am anxious as well. I've got a week of BBAW related events planned, plus contests, and I hope that Everyone has a chance to stop by and enter.
I can't wait to see what all the other bloggers have planned for the week as well. We're all going to be busier than we usually are!
Looks like you'll be busy. I posted the BBAW stuff on my blog, too. But I won't be as busy as everyone else. At least not with BBAW stuff.
Well you could always be busy, posting about my contests, Anna! LOL I'll recruit you somehow!
