Crowning Royalty, Sharing the Love and You're a Gem...

I'm such a lucky girl; I've gotten three awards in the past week! Woohoooooooo!!

The first award comes from Janet. She's a sweetheart and named me the "Queen of Cute Puppy Pictures". Me?!?! Take puppy pictures? Hahaha...ok, I admit it.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Janet!

Her rules are simple:

1. Grab the award and post it on your blog, linking back to the person who gave it to you.

2. Give the award to six people you think deserve to be queen and link to their blogs.

3. If you feel like it, tell what they should be queen of, but I'm not gonna force you. After all, you are the Queen.

4. Let the people know you've given them an award.

I can do that! I tag:

Jane at Moonflowers Mojitos and Me. She is the "Queen of Med School". Jane is starting school next week - YAY! Plus she is fabulous and her emails always brighten my day. :-)

Casey at The Ever-Changing Life of a Military Wife. Casey is the "Queen of Travel". I love to travel and she not only gets to more places...but takes GORGEOUS pictures along the way!

Mrs. Realife at The Reality of Happily Ever After. She is definitely the "Queen of Telling It Like It Is". She has posted lots of things that have made me laugh and made me cry; if something needs to be said - she'll say it. I admire that. :-) Plus, she has one of the cutest Dachshunds I've EVER seen! (But my babies are cuter...heeheehee)

Sara at Unwrap Life and xoxo, Closet Girl. Sara is the "Queen of Clothes"! She takes a picture of her outfit EVERY SINGLE DAY! And somehow...she manages to look fabulous every day too. I'm so jealous...and I wish I had met her when she lived near me!

Kirstren at Lady Kirstren. This lady is the "Queen of Putting Up With Cole". Admittedly, she gets this title because she's my cousin and I'm cool with nepotism. Who else would IM my BlackBerry at night to make sure I got home following car trouble?!?! She is truly awesome and deserves all sorts of awards. :-)

April at April Showers. April is the "Queen of Blog Design". She has lots of bloggy ventures going on and is a kick-ass designer. And I'm not just saying that because I'm on her waiting list... :-)

The second award comes from Corkyshell at Behind Every Great Love is A Great Story. She is just a sweetheart; THANK YOU, Corkyshell!

There are no rules to giving this lovely award away, so I tag:

Kaitlin at Life of a Busy Wife

Janet at Stuff I Think About

Sara at This Beautiful Thing

SassyEngineer at A Sassy Engineer

Kathie at My Net Finds

My last (and most recent) award comes from Kathie at My Net Finds. She and I are new to each other's "follower" list - I don't miss a single post.

These rules are super easy too...

The only rule for this award is that to accept it, display it proudly on your blog for all the bloggy world to see your greatness and/or pass it on to other bloggers as you see fit.

I tag all the amazing folks that read and comment on all my posts. YOU ROCK!
