I'm Honored

I've been given an award. It feels so special to be recognized by other bloggers. And quite exciting when you've never met in person.

I received this award from Melissa at

bE CAreFuL WhAt yOu WiSh fOr...

She is a great girl with a fun sense of humor. I've enjoyed reading her posts and I always love it when she leaves me a comment. She is worth reading.

Thank you Melissa!!!!!

The steps of this award are to list six things you love and then pass it on to 6 bloggers.

1. I love my husband and my children and doing anything with them. (I know... cliche, but true!)

2. I love shopping. Anywhere with Anyone.

3. I love my home and where we live in our city. I'm so thankful for our house.

4. I love reading. Especially while sitting outside, on a warm summer day, near water.

5. I love cuddling up inside by the fire. Especially when it's storming outside. I love the feeling of being safe inside and not being able to go anywhere. It's the perfect excuse to cancel 'everything' and just stay in.

6. I love sharing food with friends. Whether at home or at a restaurant. Whether a meal or appetizers or a dessert.

I'm passing this along to some fellow bloggers whose blogs I enjoy visiting:

1. Kim at Season's of My Heart. Kim is about my age, married around the same length of time and our oldest daughters are close to the same age. I enjoy reading Kim because we seem to be at the same stage of life.

2. Joanne at Pass Along Life. I've just recently discovered Joanne's blog. I've really enjoyed her writing and she is definitely worth mentioning here.

3. Julie at Pursuing Happily Ever After. Julie is a young mom that recognizes that she is on a journey and is willing to share 'real life' with her readers. I enjoy commenting on Julie's blog and do love it when I receive a comment from her.

4. Holly at Confessions Of A Redeemed Diva. Holly used to be from Here and now she lives There. It's been fun reading about her life and her family. It's like she is still Here. Holly is a talented writer and creates pleasure-reading out of everyday life.

5. Maria at Blog Giveaways. So creative to create a blog to let us know where to go for all of the giveaways. I love it! It's so much fun to enter giveaways and visit other blogs. Thanks Maria!

6. Sandy at 4 Reluctant Entertainers. I'm always anxious to see what Sandy has to say. She helps make entertaining seem so much easier. She gives great step-by-steps and is an awesome encourager.
