I know this came as a shock to me as well. Mrs M of Freaky Frugalite has bestowed on moi a wonderful blog award. It comes with prestige and artsy fartsy stuff too! I was so excited I could spit. Mrs. M is one those super talented women that likes to renovate, homeschooling and blogging while being frugal. She is a go getter, so for her to notice me is just marvy.
Okay so now I get to do what makes being a winner so much fun... I get bling and I get to give bling. Hey I like shiny, glittery and bling as well as my Thomas Kincade. So this is my bling! The Arte y Pico Award, I have seen blog awards but secretly the Art Deco/Art Nouveau fanatic in me really wanted this one! (BTW yes I do what both of those styles are!)
Okay Okay back to the prompter.
Here are the rules:
1. Pick five (5) blogs that you consider deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also for contributing to the blogging community, no matter what language.
2. Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone.
3. Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given her or him the award itself.
4. Award-winner and the one who has given the prize have to show the link of “Arte y Pico” blog, so everyone will know the origin of this award: http://arteypico.blogspot.com.
1.Judi at DoodleBug Designs, I am nothing without her creative eye! Now Judi may want to move this award to her personal blog which is just as special as her Design one.
2. Terri at SteelMagolias, who through her grace, and humility has shown me struggle with grace and a cabin in the woods! Plus once I saw her blog I knew I wanted a design!
3. Laane at LaaneWorld. Her wonderful posts with awesome content and her design with a soothing touch make me glad I have read her blog as much as I have.
4.Jules at Arduous Nincompoop The day I saw her Entrecard Icon with a Goat face I was a Gonner! She and I share the same deep love of dogs and goats, need I say more. You must check out her July 4th contest winner. Too creative! My dogs would chase a flag (perhaps they are socialist dogs...nah)
And finally but by no means least is...
5.Mom at Mom With Brownies. What can I say? She homeschools, bakes brownies, blogs and does organizing of Serious Blog Roll along with many other rolls. She has taught her own kids to blog, and to share their homeschooling blogs with other kids.
It is with great flair and much glitter (falling from the ceiling) that I hand these awards to such beautiful and talented bloggers who happen to be women!
It has been my great pleasure receiving this award and passing it on to float to a growing blog for me yet to find!









Stumble It!

4 spoke out:
Congratulations on being recognized and publicized. I clicked around and read a couple of Christian homeschool Mommy blogs - felt like a lazy heathen for the rest of the day. Just when I start to feel good about refraining from dressing my daughter in sleazy Walmarket crap that makes her look like a tiny tramp, I find women who are hand-sewing prairie dresses and petticoats for their daughters while reciting the Psalms they have memorized...
Heb,
I promise I am not going to sew and do all that work. I am going to Goodwill and pick up what I like to wear. Dunk buys his own clothes now, at first it was so hard letting him get a questionable shirt.
So many women are able to do so much, and some days I can barely get a few things done. But you know my Hubby is constantly thinking I know where everything for the farm is! If he is underfoot, I am lucky to get half my list done.
congrats on your award-
I would like to mention Jen's blog-
