I would like to thank my sister Candace who introduced me to Blogger.

I'm passing this award to..................

1. Candace at This Little Light of Mine What can I say, she introduced me to the blogging world and has some of the most inspirational blogs ever. She should write a book instead. Not to mention, my niece and nephew are pretty cute to look at! :)

2. Brenda at The Silver Lining Brenda is a special, quality friend in my life and I love that she is blogging. I love her new design and the pictures are beautiful. I love getting a glimpse into what life is like with a high-school/college kid as well as getting a dose of girly-girly 3 year old too.

3. The Rupps at But a Breath The Rupps are actually my sister Candace's friends. But, they are great fun! Ok, hilarious and serious all together. Not to mention I admire them for picking up their lives and moving to a far off country to be missionaries. Here's one of my favorite posts. http://rupplife.blogspot.com/2008/04/snapshot-of-our-lives.html,

4. Kumar at Wondering About God This is one of my best friend's preacher friends. Humorous and insightful. It's always interesting to read from another religion's perspective. Here's a favorite post. http://wonderingaboutgod.blogspot.com/2008/04/revenge-is-sweet.html

5. It's a tie between Karen at The Degenhart Family and Jonny at Jonny on the Spot The problem is is that neither one have posted lately. Again Karen's posts run along the same lines as Candace and I get precious pics of nephew, William. With brother Jonny, I laugh my b*tt off!
