Versatile Blogger Award!

Look what my friend Hilary sent my way:






The Versatile Blogger Award! We've been keeping up to date on each others happenings through our blogs and I am so grateful she inspired me to begin my own! Since beginning, I've been able to keep up with the exciting times she and her family have been experiencing, the ups, the downs, the humor, faith and love that has kept it all together!


By inspiring me to begin my own blog, I've been able to capture the goings on in our happy household as well. Without this.. well.. we'll just say Julia's baby book is still a work in progress.. whereas this blog.. well it's got it all baby!!!


So.. here's the fun.. if you're awarded this award, there are 3 tasks to complete upon acceptance.. Uhm.. does anyone else hear a weird 'My precious, my precious' gravelly chant going on around here?


No? Alright then.. it's just me!


Anywho..


1. Thank the person who awarded you - check


2. Share 7 interesting facts about yourself - see below


3. Award 15 bloggers you've recently discovered


**I agree with Hil.. 15 is a lot and I could award a lot of strangers with really good fun blogs this award but.. hmm.. not sure how well that would go.. since I only personally know a few.. so I cheated! Not an ounce of guilt either!


Here's my nominations for the Versatile Blogger Awards:




uhm... I have a lot that I read.. but Hil is the only one I know that regularly posts.. besides Jonathan and well.. he's Jonathan, bless him.. and kat stopped posting a year ago so... I guess I'm sending my single award right back you to Hilary!



Now for the oh so not so secret 7 things about me!


1. I'm convinced I'm a positive, happy person.. even when I'm scowling I'll argue this fact!


2. I'm convinced I'm still spontaneous... you can stop laughing now.. : )


3. I love lists! I'm a horrifically big procrastinator.. so I started making lists.. now... if I have a list? Magic happens my friends! Without one? Nothing gets done. If I misplace it.. frantic searching goes on! I have a 2 second memory/attention span these days.. if I don't have a list.. vamoose! I'm a goner.


4. I am idea happy.. it's the follow through that I lack. I currently have maybe a half a day left to complete the playroom.. but I'm at the point where I typically lose interest in my project(s) so I'm really dragging my heels.. this also goes for the 2 dressers, a table and shelf I have in the garage waiting to be stripped, sanded and stained.. have I mentioned my hubby is very patient!


5. I really want to be a stay at home Mom.. I'm also extremely terrified of the idea and responsibilities that go with that desire.


6. I love my family with every fiber of my being.


7. Last but not least... I cry every time the ASPCA commercials come on. The moment I see it begin I search for the remote as if my life depends on it. If I can't find it right way I am drawn to the darn thing like a bee to a beautiful succulent flower.. I can't turn away even though I know without a doubt, it's going to break my heart all over again.
