I received TWO blog awards from two of my sweet readers this week! I’ve only been blogging for about six months, and I have just enjoyed it so much! I love getting to “meet” new people, and I’m so thankful for the new blogger buddies I’ve made over the last few months!
Lindsay at Lee La La gave me the Sunshine Award! Lindsay and I are new blogger friends, and I just love reading her blog! She is so sweet and has a stinkin’ cute little girl! If you haven’t checked out her blog, you must!!
Stephanie from A Day in the Life of a Grad Student’s Wife gave me the Versatile Blogger award! Stephanie and I are also new blogger friends! Her blog is really cute, and she has just started a new weekly post called Sweets for the Sweet. It’s going to be lots of fun! You should all check it out!

Ok, both awards say that I have to list seven facts about myself, so I’m going to just combine them into one list. I always have trouble making a random list, so we’ll see how it goes!
1. Sonic Dr. Peppers are my weakness.
2. I love dresses, jewelry, and all things girly!
3. I have scoliosis, and I have had two spinal fusion surgeries to halt the progression.
4. I am terrified of tornadoes…kind of a problem since I live in the middle of “Tornado Alley”.
5. I love music, and I love discovering new music. I have even gone to concerts with friends where I didn’t know the artist, just because I enjoy music! Two of my favorite concert discoveries – Raining Jane and No Justice…both bands are awesome!
6. In elementary school, I was on a nationally-ranked jump rope team. We won regional competition in Shreveport, Louisiana, and placed 7th at national in Disneyworld!
7. My blogging is kind of a secret. Less than ten people who know me in the real world know that I blog. I’m not hiding it, but I just haven’t really broadcasted it. Weird!
Now, time to nominate some of you awesome readers for these awesome awards!
