Awards Galore

Over the past week or so I've accumulated a couple more awards from my lovely readers. I finally have some time to pass them on to other wonderful bloggers, so here goes:
This foreign award (which means the blog invests and believes in the proximity/closeness blogging gives us) was passed on to me by The Wife O Riley at Living the Life with the Wife of Riley. I have to include the following statement as well:

"These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or 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.”

Don't mind if I do...

1. Maegan at ...love Maegan
2. Franco at RiverMist Expressions
3. Maki at w/ Love, Sincerely - Posh Mom's Diary
4. Valerie at being red
