Wendy nominated me for this award. Thanks so much, Wendy!!

She is an amazing cardmaker who loves pretty paper. Her creativity blows me away. I think my favorite post of hers is still her Halloween boxes. So cute!

If you are a stamp-er or cardmaker or scrapbook-er or in need of creative ideas or just simply like to look through what other people are making-- check out her blog.

As a result of receiving this nomination, I am supposed to tell you 5 things I am addicted to and nominate 5 other fabulous sites.

Addictions:
* My family (especially nieces and nephews) – they are adorable! I love them and love being with them. If you need proof of their adorable-ness ask. I could go on and on and on!
* Books – I love to read, mostly fiction.
* Belly dancing – it’s a crazy, fun hobby. There is something grounding about the whirl of colors and the beat of the drum. I love the sisterhood we share in troupe and the creativity that comes from the dance.
* Cambridge and Oliver – silly, silly dogs.
* The Ranch – Something about the red dirt down there, once you get a taste of it, it never lets go.

Now for the blogs! So hard to choose!!!! I enjoy visiting more than 5 blogs regularly, but here are the 5 I’ve visited most recently – in addition to Wendy’s.

Nominations:
* http://gordongossip.blogspot.com/ - Jenifer always has some great, new idea posted. She has great taste, and I feel like reading her blog is like reading a magazine. She has a way of finding all the cool things first.
* http://sherbugs.blogspot.com/ - Sherry shares her life. I can see her family in each word she writes. She makes me laugh or cry depending on the post.
* http://mowglimarie.blogspot.com/ - Angie has quirky awesome posts. I love the variety of her posts and her mad video editing skills.
* http://morrillfamilyblog.blogspot.com/ - I love Bekah’s blog because I get to see into her family and check up on the happenings in the lives of a nephew and a niece. Two obsessions in one: family and blog! I love her posts and comments. She is the one who introduced me to thecutestblogontheblock.com and to blog playlists.
* http://j0n3zclan.blogspot.com/- Havilah is my sister-in-law’s sister. I love to read about the funny and creative things that happen in their family.

Let's Get It Started

Today I found a new online party planning resource . Holiday, birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, weddings, etc. It helps you create invitations or ecards, is customizable, offers list management and guest list management, sends event/birthday reminders, manages potluck sign up lists, links to Twitter and Facebook, helps you decide on a date, links to your e-calendar, links to party planning supplies, manages a to-do list, offers party planning ideas, hints and tips, and is pretty much amazing. In addition, it is free. I'm hooked.

Shot and Chaser

I did it! Today I braved a shot of wheat grass and am forever grateful to the Jamba Juice employee (Alexa) who recommended the orange juice shot as a chaser over an orange wedge. I'm not sure why today was such a momentous day. Wheat grass is something I've wanted to try for a while, but haven't dared do - kind of like my purchasing soy milk and hesitance to drink. (Thanks, Renee , for the recent soy smoothie introduction!) All I can say now is wow, wheat grass - talk about fresh!

Memories

Oliver, I remember how small you were. How you whined and cried when you were left alone in your box/kennel while you were being house trained. I remember how you took to Cambridge, wanting to be with him everywhere. I remember sitting with the two of you, having structured together time; Cambridge was not fond of the new puppy and needed encouragement for patience, lessons on sharing, and reminders not to nip at the puppy. You hated going somewhere Cambridge did not go and wanted to go everywhere he did. You were always eager to love, ready for a pat on the head, playtime, offering a lick to the hand, even when I didn't put my best foot forward. Even when I scolded. What a small fluff you were. Loyal and anxious and mischievous. Wanting to climb into laps. Wanting more food, more time, more love. Always thinking you were still a puppy. Wanting to be the center of everything. Stealing toys just to steal them. Camping trips with you and Cambridge in the tent with me because I was wo...
