My First Blog Award and Sharing the ‘Love’!

My week has had a surpising and fantastic ending that I would like to share with all you wonderful, awesome readers!

This week I was awarded the ‘Leibster Blog Award” by the inspirational blog Frazzled Five.  Jen is a powerhouse wife and mom of five kiddos, who amazingly juggles both of those roles as well as a wonderful blog while pursuing a Biology Degree on the path to Med School!!!  Thank you Jen for this award – you are so inspirational and sweet !!  Please visit her blog and say hello!

What is the Leibster Award? Well, the idea behind the Liebster Award is to bring attention to blogs with less than 200 followers.  Liebster is German for ‘dearest’ or ‘beloved’, but it can also mean ‘favorite’. It is awarded by a fellow blogger to a blog they feel are up and coming.  I am beyond excited, honored and blown away to be in that category!

The reason I feel so fortunate to receive this award is all because of you, my fantabulous readers and followers.  Seriously, you guys make me jump out of bed in the morning! 

Blogging has been so rewarding in so many ways.  It has allowed me as a SAHM, a mother, military wife, lover of design and DIY’s to find a way to develop some amazing friendships and develop my knowledge of design and decor.

The #1 reason I started blogging was to meet new people and make new friends.  You readers have given me so much encouragement and help as a new blogger and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.  No one has judged my questions, or told me that I was bugging them too much (although I am sure I was and they were just too nice to say it!). 

To receive such wonderful feedback on my thoughts, ideas and projects, aside from this award,  just fuels my desire to continue improving my blog and grow.  And I just don’t mean to grow in followers, which of course we all want, but to grow as a decorator and DIYer, grow new friendships and grow my blog into a fun, inspirational and supportive resource for fellow bloggers.

Now the other fun part of receiving this award is that I get to share the ‘love’ and choose other deserving bloggers to award this to! 

1. Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award by linking back to them.
2. Post the award on your blog.
3. List the bloggers you are giving this award to with links to their sites.
4. Best of all, have fun and share the love!

The following list of bloggers are my ‘beloved’ and ‘dearest’ blogs.

So….the Leibster Award goes to:
