Giving back...

My friend John has been blogging for only a couple of months now and I would like to send him this fun award as recognition! His blog is called Peaks & Valleys and I have really enjoyed reading along. So here's to you and your blog, John:

You can keep it for yourself & pass it on to someone else who's blog you enjoy, as well! Feel free to display it in your sidebar, because I think your blog is excellent! Maybe not as sweet as some led tail lights that glow purple when you push on your breaks, but definitely cool in it's own way for sure. Everyone, go see his blog and maybe share some link love!

A 'Friendly Site' Award

I kinda told myself I wouldn't do any more awards, at some point they are just redundant. But I really like this one because I do strive to have a friendly site! Sandee over at Comedy Plus has given me this:

Now, I couldn't find it's originator to find out what it's purpose was intended to be, but at this point, it does seem kind of obvious! Thanks Sandee!!! I'm gonna pass it on a little later.

Awards are fun!

I have been recently given a new award! What an honor, it's from "...And Miles to go before we sleep..." created by Sultana Blog. It is a Community Blogging Award designed to 'celebrate people who reach out and makes the blogger community a better one.' Thanks, Miles to go, I just do my thang! (Sorry, I'm not sure of your first name, shame on me!)

I would also like to pass this award on to some people who do their part in making the blogger community a better one as well!:

To "Cherished moments with my 2 angels" because she's caring and always posts about her happy family and contributes regularly to my blog, making my blogging community a much happier place to be! I'm so happy to be giving you an award first for a change!

To "Cheaper by the half dozen" because she is definitely a great contributor of happy community blogging over there. She's constantly coming up with fun stories about her kiddos and keeping me entertained! She's an extremely talented writer as well!

To "Rants from Sunnybrook Farm" not just because we share a wonderful name ;) but because she has quite a nice little blog going on over there! Perhaps some day I can make it into her 'links' list LOL

And last, but certainly not least, to "Skittles Place" because she totally rocks! She created a great meme called Heads or Tails, I love her 'Caption This' post accompanied by her fake prizes, which I actually won once! LOL She is a great contributor to our blogging community and someone we could learn a thing or two from.

Thanks to all my recipients because you rock and you make my blogging community a better place to be! There were a couple more, but I could see they had already received the award! Good for you! Also thanks to Miles to go for considering me worthy of this award as well! Now get back out there and get ta' blogging!!!

I'm a finalist!!!

I'm a finalist in a Whogets.com contest for a Pirates of the Caribbean DVD. If you wouldn't mind too terribly, could you please go over and throw a vote to me??? I really need it to catch up, someone has a lot of friends there! LOL

I'd love to get this movie and share it with all my friends and family too! My dad would like it if he hasn't seen it already. He lives alone in the country, so I try to pick up movies for him and stuff. Anyway, I try not to put sob stories on there, because so many people do and I personally think it's annoying! Besides, I have a blessed life, no need to spoil it thinking about unhappy things!!! Signing up is easy and free, so please check it out. I've won a couple of other DVDs that I passed to my dad too. Thanks everybody!!!

A missed Award!!!

Apparently my friend Alison over at Cherished moments with my 2 Angels gave me a nice "You make me smile" award back in SEPTEMBER and I missed it! So without further adue...Thanks, Alison for the recognition that I can still make someone smile around here!

As you know, I admire your blog and visit often as well! I love hearing all about your work as a teacher and mom and wife and daughter and member of your church! Seriously people, it's good times over there! Go visit her blog and see!

I'd like to pass this award on too, it is nice to do! Thanks again, really, I love making people laugh and enjoy their days! I want them to come back again and again, and you know, you can catch more flies with your mouth open...or no wait, it's honey in your mouth....no wait it's the flies mouth....now I just sound like Tommy Boy!

To those who make me smile:
Patrick
(Who probably will just laugh in my face, but he does make me smile!)

Anna
(Who I just got to trading comments with today and I think her blog is nice!)

Skittles
(Even though she already has it, I just like to let her know I think she's great!)

Tina
(Whom I've forgotten all about because she's not on my blogroll!!! Sorry, gonna change that right now!)

That's all I can think of for now. Thanks again Alison!!! And thanks to all those I chose to pass it on to. You make me smile and that's a good thing!

A 'Totally Fabulous' Award!

Thank you to my good friend Alison over at Cherished Moments with my 2 Angels for passing this award on to me! It's so fun to be thought of in times like these ;-)

I reserve the right to pass it along at another time, as I could only think of a couple of ladies at the moment to pass it to, and they happened to also be on Alison's list of recipients! LOL

Alison, thanks again for all the encouraging words and always visiting my blog and anxiously awaiting my arrival home from a long journey. I promise, pictures are on the way!!!! Thanks, Alison, you're awesome and totally fabulous too!!!

Award History: This award was designed by Mike At Ordinary Folk and was originally offered by Christy of Totally Fabulous. This award is for "bloggers who are fun, cool, and of course Totally Fabulous!”

My first blog award!

Thanks to Bridget over at 'And miles to go before we sleep' for handing out this fun award and recognizing me and others enough to pass it on! It's much appreciated and certainly brought a smile to my face today! Thanks for including me...
