favorite blog award

Kristen gave me one of the nicest compliments by giving me some type of great blog award tag thing.. and I am truly flattered. Now I have to name my favorite blogs. To tell you the truth, I don't like doing this. at all. I really don't like popularity contests. because it usually makes everyone jealous of me. but since I am not nominating my own blog-- I feel okay about it.

I decided to link my FAVORITE POSTS from each blog. I know, a little more work for me.. but you're worth it.

Nie Nie amazing that you can be so touched by someone you've never met. she has changed so many lives just because she lives hers to the fullest.

c Jane I realize the rest of the world loves her too.. but how can you not appreciate her wit, charm and excitement about glitter poop?

Molly Jackson another woman I have never met, but that doesn't mean I don't love her. I cry each time I read her blog. she is eloquent. beautiful. inspiring.

Bethany easy to relate to. funny. and she's family-- so she must be amazing.

Tristie genuine. happy. has NEVER been afraid to be her spunky self.

Suzanne and Jason this particular entry is rather long, but I love it. I am so glad they blog so I know what's going on in their lives.. although it's been a while since they've updated. where are you?

I have four married brothers... with four amazing wives. it's incredible to see your siblings marry someone hand picked for them. Rach is on my list of fave blogs because she lives so far away and I LOVE being able to see updated pictures of my super cute niece, Kennedy! we miss you guys.
