I {Heart} You, Too!

I have received two lovely awards as of late and I wanted to say thanks and pass along the love.


I got this sweet one from the lovely Kati of the Multi-Purpose Life


and this fancy one from the generous Kat of Big K, little a

Thank you, ladies!  You brought a smile to my face :)

And now, here are the rules:

1.  Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award
2. Tell us 7 random things about yourself.
3. Select 10 bloggers that you would like to share this award with and let them know.

Seven Random Things You May (or May Not) Know About Me:

1. I hate, hate, HATE housework.  Yet, a messy anything drives me nuts!!!  And I love organizing things.  I guess hiding somewhere inside me is a really organized person.  Kind of like a combination of Monica and Rachel from friends, minus Monica's weirdness with germs.

2. My pet peeves are: people who only sing one part of a song over and over, people who pronounce things incorrectly (constantly!!), adults who talk to each other in baby voices, and people who argue for the sake of arguing.

3. I can fit my entire fist in my mouth, a trick that my husband does not like me showing to other people.

4. I am super self-conscious about myself.  Having to take pictures of myself for this blog is helping me with that (all of the sweet comments you leave really do boost my spirits and brighten my day.)

5. I am the only person in my family who's not named after a relative.  All of my siblings have a part or all of their name that is a family name.  I'm the only one who doesn't.

6. I love to read!  When I was younger, I would read 2 or 3 books at a time.  It drove my parents nuts!

7. I also love to sing.  And I've been told I'm pretty good at it.  In high school, I was in all four of my school's choirs, including the honor choir and a cappella group.  I even sang in my junior college's choir.  It one of those things I wish I could do more of.

And here are the 10 lovely blogs I'm passing these on to (in no particular order):

So, in keeping with the rules, here are my 15 (in no particular order):

I guess this means...

..that you all like me, you really like me!

Just kidding with the theatrics there.  Chalk it up to my college drama club days.  But in all seriousness, I do want to thank Kimbo West from A Girl and A Glue Gun for finding me and giving me this:


You are too kind! 

You can check out Kimbo and her adorable blog

And now to pass it along.  I love awards that you get to give to others!  Here are the rules:

1) Thank the person who gave you the award.

2) Share 7 things about yourself.

3) Pass the award on to 10 bloggers you've recently discovered and think are just fabulous (in no particular order.)

4) Let those bloggers know you've selected them for this award so that they can pass it on, too!

Ok, so 7 Things About Me:

1.  I am in no way, shape, form or fashion a morning person.  I don't think I ever will be.  8:30 is early for me.

2. My favorite thing to do in the whole wide world is just goof off with my husband and son.  

3. I hate pink.  I'm probably one of the only girls in the universe to say that.  Not that I won't wear pink.  I own some pink.  But it's definitely on the bottom of my list of colors I like.

4. Having said that, if I ever have a daughter, she will probably love pink.  And I won't care.

5. I could spend every penny I ever earned on make-up or craft things.

6. I wish I could play an instrument really, really well.  Preferably the violin.

7. When I was younger, like high school younger, I thought I'd never get married.  My plan was to move to NYC, pursue a theater career, be a poor, starving artist and have 10 cats.  Didn't happen and I'm so glad about that.

And the awards go to:


You ladies rock!

On to happier matters.
