an award?


I got this award, so I am going to do my best with this. I am not good at making links, and having to choose so please be patient with me!
The Rules:
♥ list 10 honest things about yourself
♥ pass the award onto 7 blogs that you find brilliant in their content or design
♥ link to the blogger who gave you this prize
♥ link to the blogs receiving the prize
♥ notify the recipients
1. I love to sew
2. I wish I would have known my in laws better before they passed
3. I miss my dad everyday and I wish he was still alive.
4. I love the rain and the ocean.
5. I hate snow and being cold.
6. I hate clutter.

9. I love to take a bath
10. I am a hippy at heart.
O.K. now I have to pick 7 people?
1. Liz is waiting for husband to come from Iraq and he should be in soon. So I think everyone should go over there and thank her and her family for the sacrifices they make so her husband can defend OUR freedoms. WELCOME TO THE BLOG OF A USMC WIFE
2. Mellisa is a young lady that seems to be finding her way in the world... and doing a great job at it. Mellisa works at a school and can't wait for Friday to come because then she will be on Christmas break! Somewhere 2 Hide
3. Reduce Footprints is a journal about simple things we can all do to help save our planet. I love this journal because it help me be aware of the world around us.
4. This gal is from Scotland and is just a riot! She loves her dogs and we all know what a big pet lover I am. the adventuresofminnie&fergus
5. Paula is just so much fun. I want to be like her when I am her age. She has some awesome tales about living in Texas. Last year on our road trip when I stopped to pick Paula up she said "I will be the old lady in the center of town with my cow." paulinescountrytales
6. Betty, is a dear friend that is always there for me. She has helped me through some really tough times. She has also been a cheerleader for our daughters! Thanks Betty a corgi in southern california
7. And Last by not least, Lyn over at Brits blog Brits blog . Lyn has been very helpful. Last year when Amber lost all of her money in Rome I called Lyn and asked he several questions. She gave me all the answers. I wished she lived closer because I told her that one day we are going to grab our passports and go to Mexico, and get lost on the beach for a few days!
