My First Award

     Hello World and Happy Sunday!  I have received my first blog award!  What?  Too crazy.  


I would like to thank Julie and Sharon over at Vintage Shabby Chicks for nominating me for this award.  Hop on over to their blog for tons of inspiration.  They are one of my favorite blogs that I follow.  

Vintage Shabby Chicks


Rules for the Versatile Blogger:

1.  Thank the person or persons who nominated you. 
2.  Share 7 things about yourself.
3.  Nominate 15 blogs you have recently enjoyed. 

Seven things about me:

1.  I'm saved and free.
2.  I love being a wife and mommy (wasn't sure if either of those were going to happen). 
3.  I love to sing.
4.  I love to teach voice to all my little lovelies.
5.  I love, love, love to read.
6.  I love to try to decorate.
7.  Lastly, I've gotten lost in my local Goodwill and I can't seem to find the way out.  Thrifting has become something I adore. 

One more thing, did you know that the number 7 is the number of completion in God's kingdom? How nice is that. 

So, here are the 15 blogs in no particular order that have recently been inspiring me.

Sonny@155 Dream Lane
Nina@Nina's Nest
Kristen@My Covered Bridge
Ann@On Sutton Place
Debbie@reFresh reStyle
Kathy@A Delightsome Life
Bella@Bella's Rose Cottage
Becky@Beyond the Picket Fence
Sherry@Creations From My Heart
Christine@Stone House Living
Lisa@Sunla Designs
Cielo@House in the Roses
Alicia@Thrifty and Chic
Brooke@Thrifty Southern Living
Adrienne@La Vie Quotidienne

This has been such a fun experience...I hope you will go visit all these lovely nominees and their blogs!  May God bless our country as we continue to heal.  Have a most pleasant week and remember to be kind to one another!


Toodles, 

Kathryn

    Congratulations on your award! I always enjoy reading the 7 things about people! I just learned that 'I am' is written 7 times in the book of John. So cool...The Bible is awesome! I write a 'Life Lesson' on most Sundays telling of all the lessons the Lord has taught me...just a way to use my blog to glorify Him. Stop back by as most of my lessons are about being a wife/mom/friend! Thank you for stopping by Three PIxie Lane! Your newest follower, Christie
