I was honored to receive a 'top preppy blog' from The online Cosmetology School Blog.

Lots of other wonderful, preppy blogs featured.

Thank you!!

The 'Chic' Award

 

My sweet friend, Jill at Peeptoe Pumps and Pearls awarded me with the Chic Award! Thank you, Jill for this fabulous award. I am honored! I was fortunate to 'meet' Jill through a pink, preppy swap a year or so ago - we were swap partners! Jill is so very chic. I just love her style and she is such a beautiful, giving woman. Through Jill, I became acquainted with the New Day Foster Homein China and became a sponsor to Khloe. I then 'meet' Khloe's new mama,Tanya. Oh, how I love the blogging world and the wonderful friends I have meet.

Okay, here's the hard part. I always have such a difficult passing these awards on. So consider yourselves all Chic Award winners!

And, I'm off to a 'not so chic' event. A pro lacrosse team, the Titians moved to from NY (I believe) to Orlando. We have season tickets and tonight is the first game. Oh joy, more sports in my life! ;)

I am the Queen!

I received this award from the lovely,Belle. Thank you so much! It means the world to me to be called a QUEEN - much less, being called awe-summmm!! I am constantly telling my family of all boys that I am the QUEEN, but they just don't get it, or care for that matter ;).

 

Here are the rules:


1.List three things that make us awe-summm.


2.Pass the award on to three bloggers we love.


3.Tag those bloggers to let them know that they are now Queens of All Things Awe-Summm.


4.Don't forget to link to the Queen that tagged us.


5.If you would like, copy the pic and put it on your sidebar so everyone knows that you're a Queen.

Things that make me awe-summmmm (this is so hard for me!!) ...

1) I am the mother of 3 boys! Isn't that fact alone make me awe-summm?! LOL, seriously though, as the saying goes,  'There's a special place in heaven for the mother of 3 boys'  ... I certainly hope so! ;)

2) I am a 'giver'. I love to make others feel special and I love to give - weather it be a card, gift, bake goods, or just my gift of time - it makes me happy. Give wrapping is a passion of mine too - love it.

3) I am a positive person. I strive to see the bright side, to be 'up beat', and treat each day as a gift from God!

Choosing only 3 bloggers for this award is too hard, so I am breaking the rules (bad me). Honestly  ... every blogger on my list deserves this award. You all are awe-summmm queens!!
