Friendly Friday: The End

         

Welcome to Friendly Friday... the last one.

It has been 19 months since Christi at Frugal Novice, Charla at Healthy Home Blog and I teamed up to introduce Friendly Friday and, by my count, we have posted this weekly way to make more friends, get more blog followers and follow other great blogs a whopping 80 times.

Each week we have loved seeing new and returning names join our celebration and add their link to the list. Getting to visit blogs from nearly every niche out there introduced us to writers, chefs, mothers, travelers, bargain-hunters, reviewers, designers, and many more that we otherwise might not have had the chance to meet, and we will be forever thankful for that opportunity.

However, as all good things must come to an end (and with the news that Google Friend Connect won't be available on WordPress blogs in the future), we have decided to not continue Friendly Friday in 2012 and therefore have this be our last week.

Thank you for participating.

Whether you linked up every week, casually or this is your first visit, we appreciate you taking the time to join us. We truly have enjoyed getting to know you and hope that you have benefited and felt supported from being a part of this virtual gathering as well. We raise our glass to you and wish you the best of luck with your blog and in the future!

Please add your family-friendly link below and join us for our last Friendly Friday! Thank you for participating!

Friendly Friday: December 16th
