I got an award!

I'm touched and honored to receive this award, One Lovely Blog, from Deb of Debs Here. It's like being the shy girl in high school, standing in the corner, and the captain of the football team asks her to the dance! What a great Sunday surprise. Best of all, I get to pass it on to 15 other blogs. The competition is fierce because there are so many fantastic blogs I love to visit. But first, the rules (props to Amy according to Deb):

1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link.

2) Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you’ve newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

And here they come in no particular order since they're all important to my heart:

1 & 2) Tammi from If You Could See What I See and Funnel Full of Soup
3) Jessica from I Like
4 & 5) Carolyn from Carolyn in Carolina and The Art of Random Willy-Nillyness even though she's not an Andy Garcia fan.
6) Gena from The Morris Bunch Blog.
7) Shannon from Potamus Prefers
8) Cherrie from I'm a Hot Mom
9 & 10) Carma from Carma Sez and Carma Sez More (not just because of her writing, but she rocks the cheeseballs, baby).
11) Suzanne from Ebay Selling Coach because eBay can be a dark, spooky place and I need some hand-holding sometimes.
12) to be continued....

Today's your day! I appreciate your blogs and the work you put into them. Someone likes YOUR work. Feel free to snag the button ladies and pass the love on, make someone else the belle of the ball today. (Note this is my first attempt at creating a button with a text code box underneath! You can snag the code and change the web address to your own; you can leave the image url, it's public in my Photobucket account for you to use).
