And the award goes to...

Wendy over at Windlebug gave me this award! I am so honored! I just don't have a speech prepared for such a thing, so I will briefly thank my family for their support of my addiction to my occasional blogging, my computer for holding up under such pressure and my fellow readers (which aren't many!)

Here are the Rules :

1. You may only choose five people/blogs to give the award to

2. Four have to be dedicated followers of your blog

3. One has to be a new follower of your blog, or live in another part of the world

And the Award goes to . . .

Rainy Day in May - although she is much too busy to pass along the award right now because she is on the crusade to find a cure for breast cancer. She and I quickly became bloggy friends and have since grown closer (she even invited me to her house and made me yummy food!) She is a beautiful person, inside and out!

The Fam Five - she has probably already received this award like a gazillion times before but I award it to her again anyway! She and I have been friends for several years - she knows all my dark and dirty secrets! She is so beautiful and helps me to feel beautiful about myself (even when I gained a ton of weight!)

Perpetual Chaos - I award it to her because we have known each other for -- well forever! We went to school together, worked together, lived together... she has bailed me out of situations and been there for me whenever I needed her (except when we lost contact for 10 years... but then we picked right back up where we left off!) This woman is beautiful and has taught me so much over the years about kindness and love! Then there was the time when we lived together and I was trying to get dressed for work... I didn't even know how to put on panty hose and she so politely showed me how!

Moms Happy Handful - She and I have been sharing mommy stories for over a year. She is an amazing mom of 6 beautiful children --- and she looks amazing! Go check out the picture of her and her 19 year old daughter together - they look like sisters!

Mr. & Mrs. Smith - She and I are new bloggy friends! We are so much alike - except she is gorgeous and I am not! We recently were swap partners and I got the best gifts from her, it was like I bought the stuff myself!
