Thank You Is Not Enough!

I woke up early morning today to do some stuffs for the upcoming Lainy's Hottest Blogoversary Competition: A Bloggers Celebration and of course to finish my daily dropping chores. I don't usually run after doing my drops, so basically, Greg's blog post of He Likes to Rant didn't go unnoticed. Who wouldn't have known him? Not only is he the Dropaholics mastermind but he's also among the 130 sponsors for the upcoming blogoversary contest. I was surprised to see my contest campaign banner waving at me while I was doing my hop-hop dance at the different blogs in the wee hours of the morning.

Polly of Random Rambling's post as usual touched the very core of my being. She often would write so many good things about me. Well, I hope I could live up to all your expectations of me, Polly My Friend without me trying so hard, LOL!

Another sponsor and at the same time, a really cool and good blogger friend of mine in the person of Rosilie of A Closet for Limitless Adventures shouted to the entire blogosphere how proud she is to become a sponsor for this competition.

Two more sweet blogger friends made a very sweet post out of this competition. One is Mize of Net Source and the other one is Bill of My Piece of Paradise.

And of course, my dearest cousin Ally of In the Eyes of the Beholder. That's what families are, sticking together come hell or high waters, LOL!

Thank you so much Greg, Polly, Rosilie, Mize, Ally and Bill for the sponsorship and at the same time for that very sweet campaign postings.

Some more friends took their time and effort in placing the contest campaign banner at their respective blogs. They are as follows:

1. My Blog Says
   
2. Towts 4u
   
3. Anything Under the Sun
4. My So Called Life
5. The Designer's Chic
6. I'm Walking on Sunshine
7. The Maiden's Testimony

And of course! How could I forget? The Master Graphic Artist of that beautiful banner...

none other than...

Windmill of Windmill on the Hill!

Clap!

Clap!

Clap!

You are the best, Windy!

Words are not enough to let you ALL know how much I am truly grateful for helping me out in spreading the word for this competition. Thank you so much! Now, I can't wait for March 15!

What's at Stake for the Lainy's Hottest Blogoversary Competition?

Five more days to go and the hottest blogoversary ever for Lainy's Musings will begin to roll! This is going to be a true celebration of bloggers from all over! Windmill's description of the blogoversary sponsors' warm and overwhelming response made me feel giddy and excited all at the same time. I was left speechless when he described the upcoming competition in one word: STUPENDOUS! Believe me! But I had to google the word and look up for it's definition, hahaha!

Answers.com gave the following definitions:

Stupendous- Adj.

1. Of astounding force, volume, degree, or excellence; marvelous.
2. Amazingly large or great; huge.

I don't want to disappoint you guys but this blogoversary competition is my way of reciprocating all the good things blogging has brought me.

Some of the prizes at stake are in the following forms:

1. 129, 700 Entrecard Credits
2. $ 145 in Cash
3. 2 Blogger Blog Lay-Outs
4. Customized Header of any size
5. 3 Blogger Shirts with accessories as freebies
6. 1 set of bracelet and earrings
7. 5 Free Domain Name Registrations
8. 41 Ad Spaces for Free Blog Exposure,
9. Webhosting
10. Text Links
11. Permanent Blogroll Link Up
12. eBooks worth $100+ (all participants are entitled to have this one).

The blogger shirts and accessories are shown below:

One blogger friend, DJ Tammy, also wanted to show her support in the form of face and body care products but feared that the items might be too fragile for shipment. So she decided to give it to me as a gift (hehe!). She handed one of the items personally at work today to which I so much appreciate. Thanks so much Sexy Tammy for being such a nice and sweet blogger friend!

One more blogger pledged to sponsor 1 set of necklace and earrings. Isn't that great? Curious? You can feast your eyes on the items HERE.

And to all 132 contest sponsors, words are not enough to express how much I am truly grateful for your overwhelming gesture of support in this endeavor. I will try my best not to fail you!

Do mark your calendars for the official kick off of the competition on March 15, 2009, Midnight Central Time.

N O V A!
