Awards Again!

OK...so my friend Holly and blogger extraordinaire sent me a couple of awards about a century ago and I am finally getting around to posting them and passing them on. Thanks Holly! I promise I wasn't blowing you off!

Here are the deserving bloggers I want to pass both awards along to. Please post about it and pass it along.

1. Katie at "Fun Times with the Becker's"
2. Jenny at "The Blah Blah Blahger"
3. Stephanie at "Gadora Wilder"
4. Ryan at "America's Bridget Jones"

So the first one is this:

The second one is this "sweet" one!


For this I supposed I am to complete the 10 random things about me list and then send it onto others. So here it goes!

1. I grew up on a ranch in South Texas
   
2. I once had a walk-on part on Days of Our Lives when I interned there. (1997)
   
3. I would love to live in Italy and learn the language. I would settle for spending my summers there in a villa on the Amalfi Coast!
   
4. I wish I knew how to make fabulous wedding cakes.
   
5. I am a wedding fanatic. I have been married for 10 years and am probably the only bride that has a MS Weddings subscription that long after her big day!
   
6. I have a husband that makes me a strawberry cake for my birthday every year!
   
7. It is a little embarrassing, but I still watch MTV Real World and the Road Rules/Real World Challenges! Yes, I am 33.
   
8. I want to travel the world, but I HATE to fly. When are we going to figure out how to beam ourselves places???
   
9. Olives, mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup, and sour cream just disgust me. Although I will eat olive oil, cocktail sauce, and sour cream chips!
   
10. I am not much of a book reader, but I can look at magazines all day long. I am much more of a picture person than a reader/writer.
    

Hope you all enjoy your awards and know that I enjoy reading your blogs!

Award

So this is a relatively new concept for me....getting an award for my little journal I like to call my blog! My friend Holly over at 504 Main was very nice to send me a little award the other day. Thank you , thank you! Holly is one of my friends and fellow wedding colleague from LA. She no longer lives in the LA area, but is the author to many wedding books and a fabulous wedding coordinator! She also has another blog all about weddings. Please check this one out Hip Weddings, too! Holly was the first person to give me an opportunity in the wedding business and the one that hooked me up with my first wedding related job. I owe a lot to her for showing me the ropes and believing in me when I had no wedding experience. Having done my own wedding by myself counts for something, but we all know that just because you plan your own, does not make you the next Martha Stewart or Colin Cowie (even though we think we are!) So Holly was great at giving me opportunity and teaching me a lot. We had lots of fun back in the day doing weddings in LA!

So anyway.....back to the award. I have been bestowed with the Friend Award.

The rules to this award are:

*This award is bestowed on to blogs that 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 other bloggers who must choose others to pass it on to and include this *Cleverly-written* text into the body of their award.

So I have chosen to pass this award along to a couple of my other blogging friends.

Jenny - The Blah Blah Blahger - I have chosen her because I think she has an awesome blog with lots of great postings on many different great topics. I know that her blog is something she is passionate about and I just want to support her.

Ryan - America's Bridget Jones - I have chosen Ryan because I think her blog is unique and tons of fun to read. Her take on certain topics is just hilarious and generally spot on.

Both of these ladies were fellow AXO's with me in college and I have enjoyed their blogs very much! Congrats!

Really, the best award I can have, though, is just to know that people enjoy reading what I have to say. So please sign up as a follower and thanks for the support!
