I admit it. I've been remiss in my blogging duties. I'm sorry but I do have an excuse.
Apart from work, I've been organising a trip so MONT and I can attend a wedding. In Ireland. In June. Yes I know, it's a long way to go but we said we would so, we are.
The timing isn't perfect for us, seeing we'll only be returning from another trip in early May, but that's just the way it goes I guess. One part of the timing that is perfect though is that I'll be able to catch up with a girlfriend who'll be there at the same time. She lives in Sydney and I haven't seen her since our wedding, six years ago....but she'll be in southern Ireland at exactly the same time as us. Amazing huh?
Anyway, that's what I've been up to.
Amanda emailed me to tell me she'd given me an award. AN AWARD! The SUNSHINE AWARD!The rules of the award are:
1.Put the logo on your blog or in a post
2.Pass the award on to 12 fellow bloggers
3.Link to the nominees within your post
4.Let them know they have received it by leaving a comment for them
5.Share the love and link to the person who gave you the award
So I'm following the rules and doing what I'm asked of.
Now to my 12 fellow bloggette's who I'll also pass this award onto.
I have quite a few blogs that I list on the right hand side of my blog, but to be honest, I don't check all of them every single day.
There are a few that I do though, and that's because I really love them. They aren't all about decor or decorating with white.... but the one thing they do all have in common is that they brighten my day. I feel like I know their authors because they make me feel as though they are inviting me into their lives and homes.
Can't get any better than that
So, here are some of the blogs that make me feel like I'm home:
1. April at A City Girl in the Country
2. Mimi at Mimi Charmante
3. Rose at Able Mae
4. A-M at Cape Cod Designs
5. Karen at Cavania
6. Brismod at Fun and VJ's
7. Tina at Rubies Place
8. White Dove at White Dove
9. Kitchen Hand at What I Cooked Last Night
10. Millie at The Laurel Hedge
11. Stacey at Stacey Snacks
12. Michelle at Michelle Made This
I hope you all enjoy your awards...and I have to say Thank You to everyone who makes me feel welcome into their lives and blogs.
OMG, my first Cape Cod Designs bloggy award.. I am so honoured! I will shout it from the rooftops tomorrow. You are such a darling for supporting me. A-M xx
ReplyDeletePS I am sooooo jealous of your trip to Ireland. I was there 14 years ago, on my honeymoon, playing the violin with an Irish band in a pub on St Patricks day... oh happy memories! You will have the best time! A-M xx

A trip to Ireland - how exciting!!! What a great chance to go on a holiday and how coincidental that your friend will be there at the same time :) Will have to visit a few of those blogs you've listed that I haven't been to before. Have a fabulous weekend x
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the award Leslie. I'm so honoured you enjoy my blog. Have a wonderful weekend.

Just discovered your blog, but I thought I'd pass an award on to you cause you just might deserve it. Check it out on my Saturday post:

ReplyDeleteI just got to your blog through arlee. Congratulations on your award. And your planned travels to Ireland. I have a table top photo book of Ireland and a picture of Dublin on my vision board. It has always been a dream of mine to get there one day. But in the meantime, I can experience virtual travels via others. Happy travels!
