Check it out! You know what that is? It's my first award. Yup, someone (Lynsey) reads my blog and actually likes it enough that they thought I deserved one. Woo-hoo! I've been blogging since November 2007 and this is my first award. It's pretty exciting. Each day I am amazed to see just how many people read and comment on my blog (comments are awesome, keep 'em coming!) and receiving this award is no exception.
When I began my blog 15 months ago, I thought I was just going to be talking about my wedding and what I was doing to get ready for it. Since then, it has become my little window to the world. When the puppies were born, my mom started telling other people about it. Since then my comments have slowly started to creep up. I love coming home from work and finding an inbox full of notices that people have something to say about what I write!
But here's what I need from you, readers: I need ideas! I've been slowly posting about the wedding, which is great, but I need other things to post about. It's been too cold to go outside and take photographs of anything and we're not doing a whole lot besides lounge around at home. I have a new idea for my Friday postings, which you'll find out about later this week. I am open to suggestions. If you have any ideas for blog topics, leave a comment about it today!
Now onto paying it forward...
Here are the 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."
And the winners are (drumroll, please)...

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the award! I needed it today! But I'll save THAT story for another post! Anyway, I use to have a "scribbit" widget on my sidebar where visitors could post you ideas to write about. You might be interested in that.
