Image and video hosting by TinyPic

My Friend,
Marie France
sent this award to me! 



 I have blogged before about 
 my  dear friend Marie
 and I am sure that you are very
 familiar with  her wonderful web sites that offers
those lovely free vintage images


She has two new beautiful blog sites
with free clip art and vintage images!

 The links to these sites are here along
with the beautiful buttons that she
created for each site! 


Precious Vintage Images of  Kittens!



Adorable Vintage Images about Puppies!



Marie is a very talented digital artist
and her amazing art is displayed on
this blog site and her button is here:





She is always doing the nicest things for me
and so I want to give her this in return!

Thank You,  Marie!


Now for the fun part of the award!!
When receiving the award,
I must tell 10 things that make me happy,
 5 unusual things that no one  knows about me,
 and pass the award on to 10 more people!!

What Makes Me Happy?

1.  Nothing in the world makes me happier that to hear my children's laughter!
2.  The end of Winter and the beginning of  Spring when everything is
      fresh, new and growing!!!
 3.  Life with all of it's ups and downs, ins and outs, and mysterious--
      just around the corner--surprises! 
 4.  Getting Mail!  Going to the mailbox and getting a great knitting magazine
      with tons of lace patterns, or awesome art supplies,
      or just about anything  good to read!!
4.   Checking my blog sites and finding that I have received some very
      sweet comments from my friends!
5.   Cheesecake!! The  4-inch high New York style!!
6.   Those absolute perfect sunny days when my husband and I, and the children,
      are all floating around in the pool, sipping sticky watermelon kool-aid and
      wondering how life got so great!
7.   Newborn kittens!!   I think and the kids hope that our cat, Little Anne,  
       is having a babies in about 8 weeks!!  
8.    Hearing "I Love You Mommy"!!
9.   A hot bath, a good book, and a cold Coke!!
10.  A "Happy Ending" to a great book, a great movie, a great day, or a great list!


5 Unusual Things About Me
(that you'd never guess)

1.  I talk  "baby talk" to all of my cats, always have, always will,
     (no matter how crazy I must sound  to all of my neighbors)!   
2.  On warm summer nights, I might, way past midnight, swim naked in  my pool!
3.  I watch Sponge Bob Square Pants, without my kids, by myself!!
4.  On Halloween night, I have been known to "roll" people's yards,
     trees, and landscape shrubbery with toilet paper!!
5.  And Guess What?  About 2 years ago, if someone would have asked me,
     why I am not blogging,  I would have said, "Are you crazy? I don't have
     time to do that, and besides, all I know how to do is turn the computer on
     and download knitting patterns. I am clueless when it comes to all of that 
     "techno-computer stuff"!  I would have no idea how to start my own blog site!
      HA! HA! HA!  NEVER SAY NEVER!!  BLOGGING MAKES ME THE
      HAPPIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD!! I LOVE TO BLOG !!


NOW FOR MY 10 FAVORITE BLOG SITES

These blog sites make me very happy!
 They cheer me up on cloudy days
 and make me giggle on sunny days!! 
They hold treasures much greater than
Pharoah's Tomb or Solomon's Mines!!!
They have a lot of magic, sparkle and shine!

I am inspired,
in awe,
and in love
with everything they post! 
 Visit their sites!!
You'll feel the same way too!

Some of the bloggers are new to me
and I am so glad that I found their sites!
Some of the bloggers are old friends
that I have grown to love!!
