I got an AWARD!

I realize I may be slightly more excited about this than is cool, but this is my first and so "HEY WORLD!  I GOT AN AWARD!"

The Rules for the award are:


1. Thank the person who gave you this award

2. Share 7 things about yourself.

3. Pass the award along to 15 bloggers who you have recently discovered and who you think are fantastic! (in no particular order...)

4. Contact the bloggers you've picked and let them know about the award.

Lets start with the most important stuff!  Thank you to


for my first award (and making my morning!)

Now...7 things about me.  Hmmmm....
1) I'm the person people come to when they want an honest opinion.  This is a mixed blessing!
2) I've known my husband since I was 12, dated him all through highschool and think that is VERY cool in this day and age.
3) I don't like sand
4) I love to swim.  There is simply nothing else like feeling cool and weightless!
5) My all time favorite food is Gigi's meatballs
6) I aspire to be a housewife.  Not a SAHM...no thank you!  I want to be a housewife!
7) a friend recently suggested I should look into garden consulting - I have not stopped thinking about it since then.

And now...my newest 8 and my oldest 7 followers get this award...
