My First Blog Award!

What a way to start off 2010!  Yesterday I received a very thoughtful blog award from Mari-Ann from Counting Coconuts.  This is my first ever blog award, and I couldn’t be happier (or prouder).  Receiving this award really made my day, so thanks again Mari-Ann!

I wanted to share the love.  I read so many blogs (confession: I’ve got around 300 in my Google Reader…something I’m planning on cutting down in 2010), but there are a handful that come to mind immediately as my favorite bloggers.  I look forward to reading their posts each day.  Some are new bloggers, some have been around for a few years and have large followings.  Most of these bloggers are also frequent commenters here and I have greatly enjoyed getting to know them better via comments and emails in addition to their blog posts.  They all bring a little sunshine to my day, so be sure to check out their blogs if you haven’t already!
