My First Bloggy Award!!

Yea!! Can you believe it, almost two years of blogging and never an award. But hey, don't feel sorry for me because here it is, my first ever, and it is from a very good friend of mine Julie.

Julie and I have known each other since 2006, yep that's a long time, We "met" in our June 2006 LID yahoo group while she was paper chasing for Liam and me for Hope. I felt an instant connection and can't thank her enough for all the support she has given me through the years. One day girl we are really gonna have to get together!!

Now here's a little bit about the award. (just in case you wanted to know)

"These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find friends and be friends.They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships will be propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly- written text into the body of their award.""These blogs are exceedingly charming.
