“Why it’s an Award!”

Pardon the A Christmas Story reference I just couldn’t help myself! A very big thank you to Laura at cooktolove.com for nominating me! Hopefully I can remain humble in the face of all this praise. ;) Seriously though I do adore her blog and the kind words she said about mine. Thank you again Laura!

So this is similar to the questions I had passed on to fellow bloggers before. As per the instructions here are the rules…

  1. Thank the blogger who gave me the award and provide a link.
  2. List 7 interesting things about myself that my readers might find interesting.
  3. Nominate 7 other bloggers, provide links, and let them know.

Seven Facts You Might Not Know About Me:

1. I am slightly OCD about door locks and stove knobs. I check them several times before bed.

2. I am from a state that is known for its lobster, my husband from one know for its wine. I think we are the perfect pairing.

3. I have moved 12 times because of the military throughout the course of my life. Four in High School alone. That much travel that early on does two things to a person 1. makes them secure in themselves and their own abilities 2. makes them value the true friendships they have gained more than anything.

4. My best friend is active duty and moving to some place very far away once again later this year. I still dream of the day she will be stationed next door.

5. I want a large family of 4-5 kids.When all My Sweets cousins are together and the house is full of noise I feel my most comfortable.

6. Every man in my family this generation has been to war. My Brother, Brother in law and my dear Husband. I support the troops.

7. I received my degree in Sociology with a concentration in Anthropology and minor in Geography. I adore History and the Earth Sciences so much so that Museum Curation has always intrigued me.

My seven:

sweetartdiva.wordpress.com- for her beautiful felt crafts.

marisakquijano.com- for the Monday morning inspiration.

  2. Congratulations on your nomination. The service is rough on families. I spent six years in the Marine Infantry and my wife and I appreciate your husband’s, brother’s, and brother-in-law’s service, but also the sacrifices made by you and your little one. Thank you all for what you do.

  3. Thank you for nominating me. It’s a challenge of my new-ish blogging skills to see if I can make the links to seven others.
    Seriously – I’m very honoured – thank you!

  4. I have nominated you and I’m sorry – I know I haven’t done the links right – but I’m so new at blogging that I clearly don’t know what I’m doing! Thank you Wendy x

  5. Dear OLAG — I am delighted and honored that you thought to nominate me for this award. And that beautirufl faith, well it’s a gift of God that has sustained me through the years, both the good and bad. And He is my most beautiful gift. May I serve Him well as I grow and heal and change through all the lessons of the moments in my life. Just like He changes and heals us all.

    My husband’s son-in-law was recently deployed again and won’t be home till October. How I pray for all of them to come on home soon! God bless our troops, our country and all the military wives like you {and my husband’s daughter Jill} until you hold them safely in your arms once again…

    Thanks again for the award and happy blogging…will be posting my link and 7 soon…
