One Lovely Blog Award

A Texas-sized thank-you to Monica from Discover Their Gifts and Jenna from Sugar, Spice, and Monkey Tails for awarding me the One Lovely Blog Award.

Here are the rules for accepting the award:

1. Accept the award. Post it on your blog with the name of the person who granted the award and his or her blog link.
2. Pay it forward to 15 other bloggers that you have newly discovered.
3. Contact those blog owners and let them know they've been chosen.
4. ***See the note at the end of this post!***

Soooooo . . . without further ado, here are 15 people whose blogs I have enjoyed keeping up with lately!  Some of them are real-life friends, others are "new friends" I've made in the blogosphere, and the rest may not even know that I've been getting a glimpse into their lives!  Hopefully you'll be entertained and enlightened as you read their posts.  And who knows?!  Maybe you'll even walk away with a new friend or two!

***If you don't have time to pass this blog award on (and, really, who has extra time they're just looking to fill?!), please know that a horrible virus will not infect your computer, a beloved family member will not get sick with a terrible disease, and bad luck will not follow you for thirteen days.  You can just accept the award and know that someone out there in bloggy-land enjoys your posts and appreciates the time you take to journal your life and share it with the rest of us!
