A Nice Surprise! with a cherry on top

Today was errand day and when I got home and checked my e-mail I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me. One of my followers, a sweetheart named Grace, had sent me an e-mail saying that she had a surprise for me at her blog (gracenotes4today.blogspot.com). This totally cute little blog award was her surprise for me! Thanks so much Grace! Now I get to share it with five other people.

Here are the rules for the award:

1. Thank the person who gave you this award.

2. Copy the award and put it on your blog.

3. List three things which you love about yourself.

4. Post a picture you love.

5. Tag five people you wish to pass this award on to.

Okay 1 & 2 are taken care of. Number three--hhmmm--(1) I love that God helped me to be a good mother to my daughter, (2) I love that my husband considers me his best friend, and (3) I love the thimble full of creativity God blessed me with and the tub that He gave me to collect all the things I learn from other people in. :)

Number four--this is a terrible picture because I had to scan it off a 35mm print. This was taken waayyy before digital cameras. LOL Hubby was in the Air Force and did a TDY in Puerto Rico. I got lucky enough to visit for a week and this is one of the beautiful beaches near Aguadillia that we played on. Puerto Rico is a very special place for us. Wish the color was better because that water is gorgeous!

Now to number five. Gosh this is hard. I have to be bad here and break the rules because I'm sending this to six awesomely crafty ladies!
