It is always so fantastic to be given a blog award and to know that others are thinking about your blog. I want everyone to know that I always appreciate these awards and since I received one this week and one last week I decided I need to post several that I have received and not posted about for some time. I love all of the bloggers who have given me awards and who I am passing awards onto, as they have really great blogs that I enjoy reading all of them.
Oh and I am not following the rules on all of them because I just can't think of that many bloggers to pass these onto. OK I am sure I could if I tried but I need to take a shower so this is the best I am doing today.
Today's award comes from Jenn at T-Rex Mom & Dad Tales. She has two really cute blogs. Her second blog is T-Rex Tales and it is from the perspective of her little boy. It is so cute!!!
The rules for the award are as follows:1. Put the logo on your blog or post.2. Nominate 7 blogs that show great Gratitude and/or Attitude.3. Be sure to list and link your nominees within your post.4. Let them know they have received this award by leaving a comment on their blog.
1. Jenn(ifer) at Adventures in Raising Boys
2. HeatherLyn at Colt Family Blog
3. Cynically Optimistic
4. Diane at Good Morning Glory
My next award came last week from Jenn(ifer) at Adventures in
Raising Boys. I think she has such a cute blog. I totally relate to her because she is raising boys just as I am.
Here are the RULES!
1. Link back to Adventures in Raising 2. List 7 things you love ♥ 3. Link to 7 blogs and then let them know they have an award waiting for them...Otherwise how will they know???
Seven things that I love.
1. Luke, he is my 6 year old and he brings so much joy to my life. He is growing up way to fast and every day I see him changing and maturing.
2. Thomas, he is my 17 month old. Wow can he wear me out but his smile melts your heart and no matter how bad he can behaive it is so easy to forget and just hug him all day long.
3. Eric, my husband. We have been a big part of each others lives for 17 years. I have days where he can make me so mad and we are very different but at the end of the day I love him so much. I couldn't imagine my life with anyone else.
4. Jesus Christ who died for my sins. This is a big part of my life and I have just as much love for him as I do my family.
5. Chocolate... what more do I need to say here. LOL...
6. Blogging... again what else needs to be said.
7. Working out, when I can find the time I love a good work out. Two kids makes this difficult but I am one of those crazy people that loves getting my heart going and being covered in a good sweat.
Passing this one along too....

2. LeAnne at Tollesons 4 Him
3. Sarah at I Blame My Mother
4. Jeannie at Jeannie's Happy World
About three weeks ago Sarah at I Blame My Mother gave
me this award. She has a really cute blog. She probably thinks I have stopped reading her blog. I can't comment on her blog from home because my computer gives me errors and wont let me. Since I have been on vacation she hasn't had any comments from me.The rules of this award are simple:
1. Write 10 honest (and hopefully interesting) things about yourself.
2. Pass this award onto 7 bloggers who you find brilliant in content and design.
10 Honest things about me...
1. I never wanted to be a mom. Would you ever have guessed this about me? I am so thankful God had these plans for my life because I couldn't imagine my life with out my kids.
2. I drive an SUV, not my vehical of choice but it is great for hauling kids, dogs and what ever else we might need to take.
3. It is my second new car and it is almost paid off and I am going to drive the stupid thing until it dies.
4. My husband doesn't know that I blog. He doesn't get the interest of things like this so I just don't tell him and I don't do it when he is around.
5. Only one person in my life knows I have a blog and she is my very best friend. I had to share it with her, even though I don't think she reads it very often.
6. I have my batchlors degree in Business with a focus in Marketing. I manage all of the marketing for my company (small company).
7. The part I love most is about my job creating advertisments and new catalogs the part I hate the most is dealing with advertisers who want me to purchase ad space with them and not the other guy.
8. I love my job but would much rather make being a mom my full time job. Eric wont let me give up my career to do this. So I work 32 hours a week and balance the two.
9. I am a Lost (the TV show) junky. I love this show and I can't get enough of it. After it ends I am buying all the seasons on DVD and watching it again.
10. Nina is a nick name my father called me as a child. I used it on my blog because I have a very unique name and I am not comfortable with posting my real name.
Passing this award along too....
1. Jenn at T-Rex Mom & Dad Tales.
2. Lt at A Day with Two
3. Cupcake at The Blog of Cupcake
My friend Diane at Good Morning Glory gave me this award way back in March. I know I am a slacker, you can say it.
The Love Ya Award Rules:
“These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find 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 are 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 go too....
1. T-Rex at T-Rex Tales
2. Tiffany at My Southern Hippy Married Mom of Four Life
3. Peanut at Peanut, Peanut Lover and the Weenuts.
4. Maggie at Life with Boys
Finally way back on March 1st my Friend Heatherlyn at the
Colt Family Blog also gave me the Kreativ Blogger award. Same rules as above apply so I am not going to repeat myself. I am just acknowledging the award from her. She has this wonderful blog about her family and I always enjoy reading it.Letting these awards build up is a lot of work. It has taken a little more than an hour to do this post. Of course Thomas is in here every other minute wanting to destroy my desk so that is making this a challenge.
