stylin' oh yea.

Thank you, Rene, from the oh so lovely blog Cottage and Vine

 for giving me the Stylish blogger Award! It means alot coming from you!...
 her blog is definitely one of my favs.

if it was a trophy...i would place it on my mantle...

that is...if i had a mantle.  ;)

Part of the award requirements was that
 i share 7 things about yours truly...
so here we go...

1. I am a homebody.

100%.

 Being at home just satisfies me and brings me joy.

(perhaps one day i will be able to call the house in the

above picture my home, then i would never leave.)



2. I adore my family and the family that i married into.

the Lord has greatly blessed me.

3.  i love my dogs. they are my children.
even if im not allowed to call them that...per the mister.
they make me oh so happy.

4.  i am so thankful for friendships...a have some Ahhmazing

 gals in my life....and i love each one of them oh so very much!

(no worries...this list is not in order of importance...

my dogs are not ranked higher than my friends...

at least not most of them.

kidding. of course.)

5. I LOVE me a hot bath.

 Especially after a long day of work, when it's chilly out.

Technology has created this incredible thing called a HOT SOAK tub, that i just recently discovered.

It doesn't have jets, bubbles or anything, it just keeps the water toasty for as long as you would like.

I only ever get out of my bathtub when the water is getting too cold, so i could REALLY have a fabulous relationship with this invention.

6. I love reading blogs!

 i get inspired and entertained daily by all of you and your blogs!

I feel like there are soooo many out there

that i have yet to discover. and that's just fun.

and i don't drink coffee, i like how it tastes, i think i'm just scared that
 i'll get addicted to it like the rest of the world.

7.  i loved the Harry Potter books. fact. proud of it.

got my first one for my 11th birthday (thanks grandma),

and have been obsessed ever since. don't love the movies too much.

...if you were on the edge of your seat for that list, which i'm sure you all were...then you'll love this.

And now for my 10 Stylish Blogger picks of 2011...;)
