Let's go to the hop...

First off, I want to say thank you to all of you who are reading my blog. It started out a little less than three weeks ago as a place for me to show off all the hard work I do in the home. Today I have had over 1,300 hits in one day! That might not sound like a lot to some of you, but last week I had 1,300 hits ever. So thank you, I am so grateful for all of you.

As I figure this blog stuff out, I still want you to have a way to connect with me and stay upraised of all the posts, and given that Google friend Connect is going away soon that leaves fewer options. You can add me to your circle on Google Plus (link on the sidebar, I'll add you back!), follow on Twitter, Pinterest, and now you can follow me with Linky Followers. Linky Followers is just below Google Friend Connect on my sidebar to the right.

Back to the Blog Hop!  This is the first time I’ve ever done one of these, but it sounds pretty cool so I’m jumping on the bandwagon. 
What is a blog hop?
Since Mr. Linky Followers (the dude who keeps the Linky parties and Linky buttons working so well for all of us) stated it so well, I’ll just quote him: 
“A blog hop is a linky list that is SHARED ON MULTIPLE BLOGS.
When several blogs put the same linky list code on their blog, the exact same list appears on each blog.
Blog visitors can submit their entries on any blog that contains the list.
The entries will appear on each blog where the list resides.
Blog readers see the same list on each blog, and can "HOP" from blog
to blog seeing the same list of links to follow: BLOG HOP!”
Have a blog? Participating in a blog hop will bring more people to your site, because your link will appear on everyone’s blog who is participating in the party. 

Here’s how to play:
1.  Add the Linky Followers tool to your site.

2.  Follow the blog who shared the party with you

3. Add your site to the LINKY PARTY below.

4.Then grab the BLOG HOP code (right under the Linky Party where it says “GET THE CODE HERE”)
5.  Hop around!  Let folks know you’re following them and that you’d love it if they followed you back. 

I will follow everyone who follows me!
This is a Blog Hop!

    Love your blog! Look forward to reading more! Great news on hits!!! My hub, bless his heart, started a blog a few months ago for his business...It was slowly taking off...I'll never forget when he came to get me, so excited he had 12 hits in one day. It was so sweet...of course I couldn't dare tell him the hits on mine ;)
    I am following and hope you hop over and check out my blog sometime :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I love hearing what you have to say! Sometimes I'm busy chasing after the three kids who can walk, or feeding the baby, but I promise, at some point I'll get back to you and head over to your blog (if you have one) to leave you a comment too:)
