Celebrating and Sharing the Love – BLOG AWARDS



Happy Dance! Earlier this week I was thrilled to bits when I discovered that I had crossed the 100+ blog follower mark. To me life is all about celebrating your successes – and sharing the love. In light of this I’m pleased to hand out some blog awards to a few of my favorite bloggers:

Donda at My Husband Misunderstood When I Said I Was Bi

Simple Dude in a Complex World

Annah at Red Means Go!

Jamie at Daydream Believer

linnykins at randomness

Sweet Charity at Misadventures of a Marvelous Miss

I am Fickle Cattle

Charles at In Review: Stuff and Things

Rabbit at The Long Journey to the Middle


Thanks to all of you readers for your support, inspiration and always interesting comments.

Have a fabulous weekend!

  1. Do you know how big that big smiley face made me grin?! The first thing to see when you open a blog to read their post... that really made my day!! :)

    I'm stealing the bloody brilliant award, even though you did not give it to me (I'm a new reader!). I love the way it sounds.

  2. Oh no, as soon as I published that last comment, I saw that "No Stealing Please!" on your right sidebar. I am so sorry. I'll give it back.

  4. @Aunt of 14: Thanks for stopping by. I always love discovering new readers. You aren't showing up in my follower list. Are you following publically? Just curious as several readers have said they are following but not showing in the list. Crazy BLOGGER site!

    As for the smiley photo, copy away! Have a nice rest of the day!
