Pay It Forward
Ramblin' Red over at Ramblings of a Red-Headed Step-Child ever so graciously gave me my first blog bling yesterday. The "You Make My Day" award. She makes my day whenever I read her blog, so it was definately a wonderful treat that I make a difference in her day as well.I now get to pay it forward to 5 blogs that I look forward to reading each day. These blogs are far more entertaining than Regis and Kelly in the morning and with much less violence and despair than the local news. As I sit at the computer and read these blogs, a smile or a chuckle is always in order and once in a while a one-sided high-five.
Go ahead and steal my little creation below and display it on your blog, and pass it on to people you feel are just as deserving!
First award goes to Tasha at the Housewife Diaries. We seem to share ideas back and forth and I just love her humor. She has gotten her hubby into the world of blogging now, so cool, and she doesn't know it yet, but I'm hanging with her the next time i'm in Vegas.
Next award goes to Kate at Living the Mamarazi Life. Her site is chock-full of super crafts to do with your toddlers and she is also a great friend. I've met Kate IRL, she is a generous and loving person, we also create at the same design site and she has a fantastic graphics business with our friend Toni.
Christina at Momology is also amazing. Her photography is outstanding and her daughter's eyes are so expressive. I enjoy her blog and look forward to her posts each day.
Mommy Confessions is one of those blogs that reads like my own life. I'm sure she's sick of me saying "I could have written this!" in the comments of EVERY post she writes, but it's true. She is my long lost twin-sister even if she thinks I'm a creepy blog-stalker and wants me taken out.
Last, but never least, Sleepless Mornings gets my award. Merrie is a local friend of mine that started blogging just after I did. She has a wonderful way with words and I enjoy reading her blog even though I email and see her in person quite often. I'm also excited that we're planning a little soiree for the Sex and the City movie premiere and both were glued to the set watching the cast on Oprah yesterday.
There you have it. My first set of blog awards. Thank you and goodnight.

Aw shucks! I'd pinch your butt right now if I could. And YES, call me when you get to Vegas. Could you imagine how fun that would be? OMG! Like totally!
Oh oh oh...did you see David Blane on Oprah? I know you did! That was friggin amazing. ANd Tom Cruise was on today....it's been such a good week for Oprah. I cant wait for Sex and the City to come out, too.
You're my #1 favorite blog! :P
