New friends and Awards!!!

When I first read about this "Ultimate Blog Party", I was a bit skeptical on exactly what would happen and who I would "meet". But, as I've learned from visiting many blogs over the past several days....there are SO many amazing, kind and inspiring women out there. (and a lot that give me a hearty chuckle..hehe) I feel blessed to be making new bloggy friends and look forward to cultivating these friendships. In honor of these new friends, I have selected 8 that have stood out to me and whom I think are truly great women.......

"These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."

The blogs are:

Oh, thank you. That is so sweet!!! :)

I love meeting new bloggers! I love finding a blog I will follow even after the party is over even more.

Can't wait to read more of your posts.

Oh, I know another one of the blogs you nominated- Erin at Fully Alive Ready to Smile! Small bloggy world, huh?

Have a great day!

Aw, thanks!! I'm going to do a post like this at the end of the UBP too, because I've had so much fun meeting new bloggers (and am excited to check out your other "picks"). It will also be nice when things quiet down and I have more time to get to know all the great ladies (and one gent) who stopped by my blog.

Well that's very kind of you Summer! I'll have to see if I can find a moment to narrow it down to just eight as well. :D

I don't know if I can narrow it down, but I plan to share most/all of the ones I've visited.
Great blog, come over to mine and see what you think!

May our loving Heavenly Father richly bless you as you stay close to Him,

The last two years I've had a blast at the parties just doing the same thing....finding new blogs to love! It's a great thing for sure!

Hope you enjoy the rest of the party and will stop by when you get the chance!
