Blog Lovin: A Fun Little Award

The Liebster Blog Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. Liebster is a German word meaning

 dear, sweet, kind, nice, good, beloved, lovely, kindly, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome

To keep this award going and pass it along to other new deserving blogs, the recipient must now recognize five other bloggers with less than 200 followers that have really stood out in the crowd.

The rules for the Liebster Award are:

1. Thank the giver and link back to the blogger who gave it to you.
2. Reveal your top five picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog.
3. Copy and paste the award on your blog.
4. Have faith that your followers will spread the love too!

I was given this blog award from a good interwebs friend, Cari who has a blog called Adventures of the Roberts. Thank you Cari, super sweet of you, and what a fun idea!

I was also given this award by Ida at Eternity Kind of Love. We are great friends, and I'm so glad to have met her when we were planning our weddings, even though I ended up getting married a year earlier instead! =)

My awards go to:

1. Kari @ La Doce Vita - A knottie friend who inspired me to do weekend planning posts and like up with Molly @ My Happy House.

2. Ashley @ Oh So Ashley - Another knottie friend of mine, who just started her blog back up. I am enjoying reading her "I Am Thankful" posts this month!

3. Jen @ On a Rock in the Pacific - A fellow blogger who lives on Maui in Hawaii. (JEALOUS!) She is just starting a nursing position and I am enjoying reading all about her work and home!

4. Kate @ Some Dreams Come True - Another knottie friend, who married her wonderful hubby the same year as my husband and I got hitched! I love her posts about her kitties and I'm excited to see how her NaNoWriMo writing turns out this year!

and last but not least...

5. Val @ This Whole Mommy Thing - Another knottie friend! She may not have time to respond to this, because she just had a BEAUTIFUL baby boy (ON my birthday!) and has her hands full! But I have loved reading about her pregnancy, and hopefully her journey through mommyhood, as we have alot in common!

Pass it on girls! =) I'm so happy and blessed to know you all!
