An Award and some nominations...

Olivia over at Of Such is the Kingdom passed on the "Sweet Blog" award to me this week!  How SWEET!!  Thanks Olivia!  I'm honored that you think my blog is sweet, as in sweet and sweet as in PHAT!  Hehehe!

Oh boy, I felt really old and uncool typing that!

Moving on.

Now I'm supposed to hand it off to ten other "sweet bloggers" who will then share it with ten bloggers themselves.

Now, I could go into detail why each blog/blogger deserves this award, but really...

that's a lot of typing for me and a lot of reading for you.

Just know that I love each and every one of these blogs/bloggers in their own special ways.  They each touch my heart, make me think, convict my spirit, teach me stuff and make me giggle day in and day out.  I consider each of them dear friends, some in real life and some in bloggy land, but I equally adore them all and respect them to the utmost. 

They are my buddies, my comrades!

And I love them.

I think you will too.

I present to you....

Blessings friends,

Another Award?? My Gracious!!

I have been honored with winning another award ya'll!  And I am just absolutely beside myself with joy!

Jenn over at Rook No.17 gave me this!  What a super cool award!  Jenn and I just recently met through blogging!  What a wonderful group of friends writing introduces you to, huh!?!  Make sure you check out her blog (and her cakes!) HERE! Jenn not only writes, but she crafts and cooks, too!  She's a regular ol' Renaissance woman!  Oh!! AND she just opened up her very own Etsy shop, The Cute Little Shop on the Corner! Check our her whimsical creations HERE.

Thanks Jenn for loving my blog enough to give me an award!  I really appreciate it!!

The rule with this award is I have to pass it on to ten other lovely bloggers as well; notifying and prompting them to do the same!  So here's my list of nominees (with brief descriptions, but these blogs are so great there really aren't enough words to decribe them at all):

1) Angela at Angela's Peony Patch ~ thoughtful and decorative

2) Jackie at The Sweetest Petunia ~ elegant and artistic

3) Amber at Classicly Amber ~ heart and hearth

4) Jamie at A Forest Frolic ~ whimsical and creative

5) Jessie at Made Cunningly ~ faithful and crafty

6)Glenna at Your Fabric Place ~ crafty and tutorials

10) Lana at I Love My 5 Kids ~ a momma's pride

Congratulations Ladies!  I love you guys and your blogs!!

I won an Award, Ya'll!

Today blessed me with the sweetest of surprises!

Holly from over at 504 Main gave me The Heartfelt Award!

Isn't that just too precious!?!

Holly and I just recently met through blogging!  I think that it is so neat that total strangers can come together with writing as their common ground and strike up a friendship!  And I am just thrilled that she loved my blog enough to give me an award!  Thanks Holly!!

Now make sure you check her out over at 504 Main!  She has one spiffy gig going on over there!!

And with that, I'd like to pass this lovely accolade on to another blogger/friend of mine who truly has a beautiful Heartfelt blog and that's Michelle over at A Mom's Musings.  She's forever sharing her love for Jesus and her family with others. She is such a wonderful person.  I'm blessed by knowing her...I hope you'll be blessed by her words.

Love ya, girl!  Congratulations and keep up the great blogging work!

Have a great night, ya'll!
