Default My Contest was a HUGE success!

I held a contest for Facebook people through a group and it was a fantastic success! There were almost 300 members and 116 entries into it - we just announced the winner today and the cute lil guy won by a landslide. I'm so excited!!! I also got one photo session booked out of it for a 6 month old little girl

Check this link out to see!

It's brought a lot of attention to my business and I am so happy about it :-) The funnest part so far was looking at all the cutie babies!

Thank you. I invited all my facebook friends, who invited their friends who then invited their family to gain votes and so on. Any more questions? I'd be glad to answer them. *Smiles* (Apparently I'm over my smiley quote so I gotta put it in a different way lol)
