A Blog with Substance

Happy Monday everyone! I usually am not a fan of Mondays, but this week I only have to work today and tomorrow and then I’m off for 5 days! My mom is coming out here from California to help me celebrate my birthday. I’m so excited!

Anyway, I am honored to let you know that Kristen, from All In My Twenties, has given me the Blog with Substance award! Kristen is one of the sweetest bloggers out there and I just love reading her blog! Thanks Kristen! I am truly grateful for the award. You totally made my day!
I’m supposed to talk about the philosophy of my blog…which I’ve never really thought about before. I guess I just want to talk about everyday life, things I love, and friends I meet. I have really enjoyed getting to know people through their blogs and I am honored that other people want to read about my life too. So thank you readers! I’m definitely planning something special for you all soon…so keep an eye out!
I’m going to pass this award on to a few fellow bloggers:

Ally @ He’s Still Got the Whole World in His Hands
Sara @ Perfect for a Blonde, But I’m not that Blonde
Sarah @ Classy and Fabulous
Kelsey @ The Seattle Smiths

    Oh I am so looking forward to leaving this mid 70s breezy, beautiful So Cal weather for the opportunity to enjoy the heat and HUMIDITY of Michigan! I need a little frizz in my hair and of course shine to my skin …….and this, you think, will make me want to move!!!
    All I have packed so far is tuna for that wicked cake…..see you in 20 hours!
