Our LIFE – in the moment

On Friday I was nominated for the One Lovely Blog award by The Crafty Lady in Combat Boots. I would like to  thank you for that nomination. I have never had this happen before and it feels rather exciting.

As a condition for receiving this award, I am to nominate my favorite bloggers and give seven facts about myself. I am new to all of this so finding favorite bloggers to nominate is going to take some researching.  I am to tell each of them they have been nominated.

The One Lovely Blog Award nominations are chosen by fellow bloggers for those newer and up-and-coming bloggers. The goal is to help give recognition and also to help the new blogger to reach more viewers. It also recognizes blogs that are considered to be “lovely” by the fellow bloggers who choose them. This award recognizes bloggers who share their story or thoughts in a beautiful manner to connect with viewers and followers. In order to “accept” the award the nominated blogger must follow several guidelines:

Nomination Rules:

1. Thank and link back to the person who nominated you
2. List the rules and display the award

4. Nominate around 15 (I’ve actually kept it to 5 as it has taken quite some time to just research all the wonderful blogs and come up with these fine 5) Then let them know about the award
5. Follow the blogger who nominated you (if not already!)
