I Feel So Loved!

Wow! I've sure gotten my share of bloggy love lately. A blog I absolutely adore has given me this oh so cool award! You truly need to go check out Memoirs of a Southern Domestic Goddess. She is creative, smart, sassy, and southern y'all! She is one of the first blogs I read in the morning. Warning, her blog is habit forming. Thanks so much for sharing this award with me!

The rules for this award are as follows:

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

~Four have to be dedicated followers of your blog.
~One has to be a new follower of your blog or live in another part of the world.

So here are the peeps I pass this nifty award along to:

*Travels Through A Crazed Mind - This is my neighbor Lenore's blog. As far as dedicated readers go, she's the top of the list. This lady is my coffee pal, partner in crime, and very dear friend. Check out her tell it like it is, day in the life blog. And say hi, she likes making new friends! Love ya, girl!

*Christians In Good Company - This blog also belongs to a loyal reader. It is one of my favorites. I really enjoy everything she blogs about. Drop by and say hi!

*Wep Ruminations - I love Wep! Go read her blog right now! It's fantastic! I love it! And she reads my blog, which makes me happy. :-)

*The Adventures of Scarlett O'Kara - Yes, I've given this blog an award recently, but she deserves another one. Since this blog is to go to dedicate readers, she needs it. She deserves it. She must have it. So, it's hers! Seriously folks, this lady is one of my absolute favorite readers and favorite bloggers all rolled into one. Stop by and say howdy!

*The Power of Housewife Word of Mouth - Chrisitne is a new reader. We found each other via Entrecard. She is a fellow Texan and writes a great blog. I feel like I have quite a bit in common with her and am so happy to have found her blog. Christine, thanks for reading me! I can't wait to read more from you. You're right, us Texan bloggers need to stick together!

There they are, my five loyal award winning readers! Please go share a little comment love with them all!

I Won A Blog Award!

Imagine my surprise when I received an award from one of my favorite blogs! Money Saving Pro presented this award to me an I am so flattered! Thank you so much! It's nice to know folks enjoy my ramblings.

The words are in Portuguese and mean, “This blog invests and believes, the proximity” (meaning, that blogging makes us ‘close’ -being close through proxy).

So, I will in turn present this award to eight blogs that I really enjoy. All of them are great reads. These are some of my favorite blogs, written by some fantastic folks. I am so lucky to have formed several wonderful bloggy friends.

Six In The Country - Gina is my frugal mentor. I had no idea what coupons could do for my family until this wonderful lady came into my life. Thanks for all you've taught me!

Keeping The Kingdom First- Alyssa is another frugal guru. She's even one of Walmart's 11 Moms! I think we were one of each other's first regular blog readers. She has become a good bloggy friend.

JANE4girls $800 Annual Grocery Budget For A Family of 4 - Erin is an inspiration! She is awesome at what she does! I look up to her so much and am always learning from her blog.

4 Days In A Week - Becky's blog is one of my favorites. we've "talked" via are blogs and she's made quite an impression on me with that limited contact. Her blog speaks to my heart. You just know she is a kind soul. She probably doesn't know it, but I find her blog a great source of inspiration. She seems to be the kind of woman I wish I could be.

Tara's View Of The World - I honestly don't remember how I found this blog, but I'm so glad I did. Tara was someone I could instantly relate to. We have quite a few things in common, so I really enjoy reading her thoughts. She shares her good days and her bad, her triumphs as well as struggles. It's a wonderful, down to earth, honest mama blog.

The Adventures of Scarlet O'Kara - I love, love, love this blog! In my opinion she is one of the best mama bloggers in the world! I like how her writing style makes you feel like she's an old friend. She rocks!

A Home With A Smile - Another frugal blogger. I love her frugal advice, her garage sale finds, her redecorating, and pretty much everything about this blog!

A Year of Crockpotting - Finding Stephanie's blog has been a true blessing for my family. I've always used a crockpot, but generally made just a few basic things in it. Then we moved here and my crocky became our only way to cook. Our menus were very dull until I found this great blog. I never knew how much you could do in a crockpot until now! Thanks so much for helping me to feed my family a variety of yummy, nutritious meals with my crockpot.

Each of these blogs has made a difference in my life. They all truly deserve this award. They are a special bunch!
