Receiving the Liebster Blog Award!

I am so excited and thrilled that I received the Liebster Blog Award.

I received this from Penni at
A few of my favorite things....

I had a precious comment from her telling me this great news 

and all I could do is smile.
It really made my night.

It means a lot to me. 

A very big thank you to Penni 

for your kindness, friendship and readership! 

 So, what is Liebster Blog Award?

"The origins of the Liebster Blog Award are somewhat unclear ,but the general consensus is that it means favorite or dearest to showcase bloggers with fewer than 200 followers.”

This award comes with a few rules the recipient must follow in order to accept the award:

1. Thank the person(s) who gave you the award.

2. Link back to that person's blog.

3. Copy & paste the award to your blog.

4. Present award to 3-5 blogs of 200 followers or less that you feel deserve this recognition.

5. Let those blogs know by leaving them a comment.

Again just want to say I am so excited about this and excited to be able to pass this award on to others.

Here are my FIVE!!!

1. Andrea at Living Simply, Loving Deeply
Not only is a personal friend, but I love reading her blog. I went to school with Andrea. She is a beautiful, talented, smart and inspirational person. I love her reads, comments, help and her friendship! You deserve this Andrea! Sending so much love your way!

2. Kelsey at Kelsey Bang
This girl is precious! I met her through a give-away on I {Heart} Nap Time with Jamielyn. She is crazy-talented and I am in love with her bow ties she makes. Not only is she talented, she is precious and sweet. She has left a sweet message replying to mine about a give-away she was doing and it made me smile. Not all bloggers respond and it makes me feel good when they actually read or seem somewhat interested in what I am saying!

3. Kristin at The Simple Things
This young lady is beautiful and very talented. I love reading her blog and seeing her renovations she did. It is just like her title of her blog...the simple things. She is simple and classy and I simply love that!

4. Ashley at God bless {our} nest
What a beautiful Mommy she is! I love looking at photographs of her baby girl. Her daughter was a miracle (they all really are) but so was my son and I just bonded with her blog. I wish I blogged when my Daven was born so nothing will be forgoten and I could have shown our love off at such a young age. ;) Ashley is not only a beautiful mother, she is very talented. I emailed her and ask her where she got her blog design and that I loved it. She designed all by herself. It is so neat and like I said she is talented .She should start her a business!!! :D

5. Hilary at Measure Once; Cut Twice
She is so cute! She makes me giggle. I love reading and following her blog! This is her "About Me" and it is me to a tee too! "I take {lots of} shortcuts & nothing I do is perfect. {Who needs a sewing machine when you have glue?} My blog is here to show you easy DIY projects & inspire working girls to find their crafty side."

Congrats Ladies! 

Love your blogs and enjoy your award! 

Go and pass the love!
