Lovin' The Weekend Blog Hops Week 56: October 26-28, 2012

Welcome to the fifty-sixth weekend of Lovin' the Weekend Blog Hops.

We are officially in the second year!

To celebrate this wonderful occasion, we are adding a second permanent co-host! Thank you to all who took an interest and filled out the form. We will be going through the responses and contacting one of you shortly. 

Thank you to every one who has stopped by, whether this is your first visit or you have been a faithful ongoing participant!

First things first:

Please don't forget to check out my co-host's blog:

 We also randomly choose a Featured host each week from the Lovin' The Readers linky. This week we are featuring Tina from Giving N Sharing and Classic Children's Books.

Here's what she has to say:

"Classic Children's Books is dedicated to encouraging strong family relationships through reading and playing together. We are PR friendly and love doing blog reviews & giveaways on Books, toys, games, educational products for families with kids from 0-15'ish.

CCB has been active for the last 4 years and I have worked with publishers & authors from around the world - Africa, Australia, Europe, Britain, America & Canada. 

GivingNSharing is focused on Adult & Teen reading, Cooking and Life in General. You'll find we focus on reviews, services and more for everyone 16+ including items like Doctor Services, health care, reading, cookbooks & items that help people with Chronic Health Issues like Fibromyalgia, MS, Chronic Pain and more. GivingNSharing has been running for the last 3 1/2 years. I started it due to the interest in Adult Literacy from Myself & my Readers and also because I wanted to bring Fibromyalgia out more so people could learn about it and how they can help friends & family that fight their way through it on a daily basis.

Be sure to join me on BOTH of my blogs this Winter for several Mega Giveaway Hops & also for my annual Christmas Preview which will focus on Christmas Stocking & Gift ideas. November 5 - December 15. "

Please take the time to check out her blogs, let her know you are visiting from the Lovin' The Weekend Blog Hops. 

Don't forget to link up to the Lovin' the Readers Hop if you would like a chance to be a Featured host next week. Please comment with a way to contact you, especially if there is not an obvious way mentioned on your blog. We would love to include a little write up about you and your blog in the next week's Lovin' The Weekend Blog Hop post, including a link to your blog. And you will get to include the linky codes on your blog. Sound fun? We're looking forward to getting to know our readers better.

Here's how this blog hop works. I would appreciate it if you would follow myself, my co-host and my Featured Host via GFC. If you no longer have GFC please follow in some other way. After that there are three different linkys you can link to. Whichever one you choose to link to, please grab that button and share it on your blog (the codes are on my sidebar). I'd love it if you could tweet or in some other way share about this blog hop, the more people who know about it, the more potential visitors and new followers of your blog. I'd love to meet some new friends this weekend.  

I have noticed that some people are more interested in just increasing their numbers, while others really want people who appreciate their blog and want to keep up with their posts. So, I decided to create two separate linkys. The third linky is for you to link up your giveaways.

If you are interested in increasing the number of followers to your blog via GFC, Linky Followers, email, Twitter, Facebook or Google+ link up here. I will follow you back if you follow me (just note which one you are linking to):

If you are interested in gaining followers to your blog who will read and comment and truly find an interest in your blog, link up here:

If you have family friendly giveaways to link up, here's your spot. Please make sure to include an end date for your giveaway.

I am so glad you stopped by. Please leave a comment if you link up and I will be sure to stop by and follow back.
