You Like Me, You Really Really Like Me!!!

I've been really busy this past week, and haven't been able to finish a single craft project, although I did start a few. I hate having half finished projects all over the place, but I'm still waiting for my stupid bobbins for my sewing machine to come in the mail, so things have been a little held up. I've kinda been feeling in a funk because I have so many things I want to get done, and not a lot of time to do any of it. I was about to give myself the following award:

Then I received an e-mail from the lovely Tracy at The 2010's Housewife. She awarded me the One  Lovely Blog Award!!! 

 

So, to fulfill my obligation for accepting this award I need to do the following:

THANK YOU, TRACY!!!

I was having a seriously crummy day and was in desperate need of a mood lifter when I got the wonderful email telling me that you thought I was lovely. It seriously made my day!

Next I'm supposed to write 7 facts about myself that nobody knows... that's gonna be kinda hard since I'm a pretty open book (and because a few of my friends are loyal readers) but here I go: 

1.

I LOVE shoes, but I hate my feet. I don't like people looking at them and I can't stand anyone touching them. Don't invite me along for pedicures, because I absolutely will not go. 

2

. I was ready to get married about 7 years ago, Amazing Boyfriend wasn't... guess who won that round? 

3.

I was such a goodie-goodie when I graduated high school. I was a virgin, never drank or tried any drugs. My graduating class on the other hand...

4.

I hate the color white. I hate white walls, white clothes and white cars. I feel like the world is meant to be colorful and that white is boring. 

5.

If I could live anywhere in the world, I would move to Ireland. I've never been there, but pictures I've seen of the country are beautiful and the people I've met from there are charming. 

6.

 My favorite holiday is the 4th of July.

7.

I've never been present when any of my nieces or nephew were born. I've always been at school, or work, or otherwise busy and gone to see them later. I still love each of them to pieces though!!!

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all my followers! You guys are seriously awesome, and I don't want any of you to think that I love you any less because I didn't give you an award. If it were up to me, everyone would get awards because I think every one of my followers are awesome and amazing. At least you all make me feel like I am. So thank you!!!!!


And to add just a little more cuteness to everyone's day...


My nephew, Jackson was born Tuesday, June 21st!!! 

Welcome to the family, Jackson!!! It's a pretty good one to be born into, if I do say so myself!
