Congratulations to all who particpated in the Homeschool Blog Awards. Remember we are not really competitors in the blogosphere. We are here to learn and encourage one another. The awards have made many aware of new and different blogs. That has made this endeavor a complete success. And, we have reposted the list of nominees for you to visit!

And don't forget Why Homeschool is hosting the first Carnival of Homeschooling. That's another excellent way to learn what others in the homeschool blogosphere are talking about.

Thanks for posting the results. I am excited to visit the blogs I have yet had time to visit. Actually, I was wondering if you could post the original ballot so people could check out all the blogs. All of the ones I checked that I wasn't familiar with were great!~ I meant to print it out, and never did. I'd sure like a chance to visit them all. Thanks!

Yes I will repost the nominations page. It was hosted off site so I'll have to repost it here. I'll do that in the coming week. Thanks for reminding me.

Rookie teams have a disadvantage in the first year. But next year will be different I am sure.
