This is such a fun idea, Miss Julia! Now I just need to tell my hubby and kids that I will be taking the day off today to surf the house tours!

FUN! I can’t wait to check everyone out. And I’m glad to know it wasn’t just me that was having some serious issues with Blogger yesterday. I think there was literally steam coming out of the top of my head. My daughter swears she saw it. lol

I’m jealous of Angela…I have to work, but promise to visit each blog later today!

Since my link isn’t up yet, me thinks Julia is working like a mad woman to get her list completed.

Thanks Julia for the hard work it takes to pull off an event like this.
You rock Jane

Julia – I’ve had a great time touring this morning. This was a fab idea. Thanks for throwing the party!

I’ve got my comfy shoes on, a snack packed, and am heading out to check out the tour. Thanks for introducing me to some lovely new blogs Julia!

Have to run to Wichita to ortho & endo docs for ds3 will tour upon my return this afternoon.

Yay! Starting tour…

woohoo! I’m not participating but did link to you today, Julia. I can’t wait till naptime today (not mine…the girls!) when I can actually take the tour myself!!

Wow! Julia, it will take me awhile to get to all of these and to actually spend as much time with them as I want to. I think it will be the whole week before I’ve visited all of them. I love the variety of what I’ve seen so far and it’s been a great introduction to some of these blogs. So, thanks for organizing this! What a wonderful idea. I know it will take me some time to get through all of these, but we should definitely do this again in about six weeks!

Phew! I just finished up my last tour! That was so much fun!

I even feel so smart because I have actually been to one of the featured homes..and it wasn’t even the one I featured! It was the Frank Lloyd Wright Fallingwater home in PA from AtticMag: House Matters Blog’s tour.

What is kind of funny about that is that I was around 20 years old…on a white water rafting trip with friends…and I kept begging everyone to go to that house with me and no one wanted to go…so I went by myself! So, I have been a lover of homes for a long, long time

Thanks Julia!

And thanks to all of the gracious hosts and hostesses who participated:)

PS: Thanks for adding my link, too

Hi, I was a bit late to the party, but my open house tour listing is up and running!

Hey Julia, I had more fun with this tour than you could imagine. Thank you so much for all the work that went into making this a successful party!

My absolute favorite was the summer tents! Those totally blew me away as I have never even heard of such a thing! Now that’s livin’!

Ok for my personal favorite was Southern Hospitality by Rhoda. Her Bedroom has the exact same dark colored furniture as our family room and we also have the blue and white theme like Rhoda. Our new home’s family room will be very similar to the one we currently have but now the color on my walls will be the same as Rhoda’s. That bedroom of hers was my absolute favorite room on this tour. And I’m ever so thankful for the wall color inspiration.

Hi Julia,

How do I link the button back to your blog? Sorry, I am so new at this.

I actually did hyper link your blog name in my post to your blog, but I don’t know how to link the button.

Thank you so much for any help you can give on this matter.

You are wonderful.

I must say that I had a lot of fun. So many different styles and yet all these houses are so special. It was a great idea to host an open house party.

Thanks. Suzy

Fun, fun, fun. I am loving this tour. Thank you Julia for hosting such a delightful party. You rock!

Smiles ~ Ramona

OMG, I am not even halfway. I am loving it!!! Thanks, Julia

I am slowly making my way through this list! Great idea, Julia, and thanks for taking on such a huge task. We all appreciate, I am sure!

I’ve only made it through a handful
I keep getting sidetracked looking through the other entries on blogs I’m visiting for the first time. -Jane

Hi Julia

I was going to participate, but it’s been so busy at my house I barely have time to visit anyone on this list, much less the people that have left comments on my blog LOL I am going to try and visit everyone on here eventually though. I hope you do this again after the kids go back to school

Now it’s time for me to catch up with you…..

hugs,
rue

I am so sorry I missed this Julia but I am catching up now!
You were so sweet to host this huge party!

Love,
Sue

I really enjoyed this! It’s fun to peak into people’s homes. Good idea! I haven’t made it through all the homes yet, but those tents really are amazing.
