Meryl,
Two prizes in one day! My son was excited when I told him I won the Andy King book on csscollection.com. When I told him I won Microsoft Expression Studio, my son said “that’s sweet!”
Thank you Meryl for having a great birthday blog celebration, and thanks to all the prize contributors.
Wow! Thanks so much Meryl and to Jon Phillips & Joe Heuer for the wonderful prizes.
This has been quite a party, Meryl! Congratulations once again on your 8th Blog Birthday celebrations… a wonderful milestone.

Deborah, Yvonne, Jacob, Jamie — enjoy all your prizes. It’s a pleasure to make all of you and others happy. This would not have been a great party without guest bloggers, prize sponsors, and readers.
One winner was confused when I sent him the winner email. He thought I sent it to the wrong person when he was the winner himself!
It was cool.
Thanks Meryl for the Magic Farm game. I never win anything so was super grateful to learn that I’d won again.
Over 1,000 entries . . . wow, that’s impressive.
Continued success,
Yuwanda
