Oh I am so excited, have waited so long to do this post. Grab a coffee you might need one, but oh it will be so worth it
Winter Wonderland
will be 2 on 30 May and we are celebrating by having a week long blog hop. We have 11 sponsors this week, yes, that’s right 11!!! But that’s not all because each member of the DT has some candy to give away too. Both teams are playing along this week plus Janet who joins us at the end of each month so that’s another 11 prizes to be won.

We would like to have as many prize winners as possible so if your name is drawn for more than one prize we will draw again. That means 22 lucky people will win a prize this week. With so many prize winners we won’t be choosing a top 3 just for this week.
All you have to do to join in the fun is:
- · Play along with this week’s easy and fun challenge
- · Be a follower of Winter Wonderland
- · Visit each member of the DT and collect a letter
- · Leave them a comment and enter their candy draw
- · Rearrange the letters to make a two word Christmas Carol
- · E-mail the answer to Winter Wonderland
It would be great if you could add our blog hop image to your side bar and link it to us, to let every one else know about the fun.
Of course you don’t have to join in the blog hop if you don’t want to. You can still enter this week’s challenge and be in with the chance of winning one of the 11 prizes this week but why miss out on doubling your chance of winning.
Now if you arrived here from Suzi's blog your on the right track, however if you have started in the middle please pop back to the main challenge blog to start at the very beginning.
