It's my first

Blog award!!

Thank you so much to Narelle of the lovely Cook, Clean, Craft! I had to read her email twice I was so surprised and excited to be nominated for an award. I had taken a little blogging break with all the family in town and couldn't believe the email I had to come back to! It made my day :)

The rules for the Sunshine Award are as follows:
* Nominate 12 other bloggers
* List the award in either a post or on your sidebar
* Link your nominees within your post
* Let the nominees know you have passed this on to them by commenting on their blog

The best part of getting this award- I get to tell you about 12 other blogs that I love to read!
The hard part- how to pick just 12... but here goes:

Craftiness is not optional
Sew Much Ado
The Crafty Cupboard
Crafter Hours (don't you love the name too?!!)
My Creative Stirrings
How About Orange
The Activity Mom
Prudent Baby
A Lemon Squeezy Home
Homemade By Jill
Wee Wonderfuls
Welcome to the Good Life

It's actually so funny that Narelle was the one to nominate me after admitting to the world the other day my love for all things organized and cleaning related... hum... or maybe that was the post that tipped her over the edge!

Even if you hate cleaning you still have to check out her post about home-made cleaning products. With a 2 year old in the house I can't stand having to constantly clean tiny hand prints, nose prints, face prints, who-knows-what-prints off my windows and mirrors, but this number actually made me look forward to it!!
