"I am NOT a VOLCANO!" (and other such stories.)

Oh My Goodness!

This week, I have recieved 3 more awards! I cannot believe it! I am so happy, thrilled, and flattered that so many people actually read my blog, and, it seems, enjoy it too!

Thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart. It just so happens that I read and thoroughly enjoy yours too!!!

Sonora gave me this lovely award

The rules for this award are:

Put the logo on your blog or within your post.

Pass the award onto 12 bloggers.

Link the nominees within your post.

Let the nominees know they have received this award by commenting on their blog.

Share the love and link to the person from whom you received this award.

Sherri and Casey both awarded me with this wonderful award:

The rules for accepting this award are as follows:

1.Post a thank you and the link to the person that gave you the award.

2.Pass this award on to fifteen bloggers you've recently discovered

& whom you think are fantastic.

3.Contact said blogs to let them know they've won.

4.State seven things about yourself.

1. I used to Irish Dance, but I broke my ankle, and it messed me up for life.

2. I broke said ankle on the Alpine Slide in Park City, Utah. My EMT boyfriend-at-the-time told me it wasn't broken. It was.

3. I play Dungeons and Dragons. My husband is often the DM. (It pays to be sleeping with the Dungeon Master.)

4. I make fairy wings, dress like a fairy, and take pictures. All the time. Seriously. I have more costumes, makeup, wigs, and prosthetics than I do actual normal clothes...do you think I'm weird yet?

5. I would really LOVE for you to check out http://www.spoonsforscarlet.etsy.com/ to read Scarlet's story. It has a HAPPY ending, and we are hoping to help MORE children have happy endings. It would also be great for you to grab her button (Left sidebar) so that others can help us too!

6. I once had an orthodontist yank a tooth out of my mouth- it still had the roots. No, it didn't hurt, but that was probably because my nerves were too shocked to notice pain. IT bled a lot.

7. I'm a really good singer and actor. I'd love to persue the stage, but Lilly and I did that last July, and it kicked my trash- not to mention my kids trash, who had to spend many evenings up late, and with baby sitters. I can't hold a captive audience again until my kids are a little older.

Okay, so, if I were to explicitly obey all the rules of this game, I would have to find 42 blogs to award! OMG! So, I am awarding both blogs to 15 beautiful, sunshiny, spectacular blogs. And they can pass on the love. (And everyone TOTALLY needs to click on these links and check them out. I'm not giving them an award for nothing.)
