My first blog award

I've just received my very first blog award! I was nominated by Jamie at Happy Harper Stories. Thanks Jamie. You have been such an inspiration to me through your blog. You are a wonderful woman and you have encouraged me in more ways than you can imagine. Please be sure to go and check out her blog.
As a recipient of this award, you are supposed to nominate 7 people to receive the award, and you are to tell 7 things that your blog readers may not already know about you. If you are nominated and don't feel like nominating 7 other bloggers... that's perfectly fine with me. Please just know how much I love your blogs, enjoy reading them so much, and accept this award from me knowing how much it has meant to me to be able to read about you and your families and to be able to share my little stories with you. There are other bloggers I would have liked to nominate, but I was only supposed to pick seven.

The people I am giving the awards to are:

Cindy at A Quiet Place
Crystal at Pink Lucy
Jennifer at Happy Little Things
Maggie Elizabeth
Melanie Elissa at a glimpse in my life
Jennifer at Happiness is Brilliant
Mama Hen at Long Days, Short Years

The seven things you may not know about me are:

I am obsessive about having lip balm on before I go to sleep. I can't go to sleep without putting it on!

I'm scared of butterflies and moths. Not from a distance though...

I consider paper towels a luxury item.

I am left handed.

I love tattoos and body piercings, especially on men (Bobby has a tattoo ;). I don't have any tattoos, but my nose and belly button are pierced.

Tulips are my favorite flower.

I would have loved to be a professional singer, but never could have anyway because I can't sing worth a flip! I just love to sing!

Just remember to save the picture to your computer so you can add it to your blog.
