I had a tough week. Thankfully I have blogging friends. I can go to blogs I enjoy and read that others are having the same issues as me, like here (see #4 and #5) and here. Even though I've only been blogging a short time I feel like I've made some friends and I've definitely been helped by more than one. Two fellow bloggers were rays of light in my otherwise dreary week and they both cheered me significantly!
First, I received some really cool mail yesterday!
What could it be?!
A couple weeks ago I won a contest at Tracey's blog. She had a contest in honor of her blogiversary. She was giving away a print of one of her beautiful photos. Have you seen her photo blog?! It's one of my favorite blogs to visit everyday.
Here is the print I won:
She included a very nice note with it! Thank you so much Tracy. The colors in this print match perfectly in my house! I love it.

The other blogger that brightened my week was Jenn. She has been a wealth of information to me. She honored me with this very heart warming award!
Thank you so much Jenn! You have no idea how much this brightened my week. Now I will spread the love to some blogs that I especially *heart*!
Asthmagirl, Laurie, Meg, Noble Pig, Stacie, Tammy and Tracey
Have a great Sunday everyone!
Glad your week is looking up! Thanks for the award!

Oh wow! That print is awsome! Yay for good friends. I'm going to have to check out Tracy's photo blog..I've neglected mine so much this year it's not even funny...I've been posting all of mine on my flickr, time to resurrect it I guess! LOL..
Thank you so much for the award! That's awsome! I will post it this week and pass it on to 5 others. Also, if you dont mind, I'd like to add you to my blogroll. I hope in the next couple weeks to get back to regular blogging...lots of things going on over here in my family life that are making it hard for me right now, but I'll be back at it soon!

The framed print is beautiful and looks great on the side table you placed it on! Also - thanks for the bloggy badge! I heart your blog too and so glad you decided to begin blogging!

What an amazing print--and it looks gorgeous in your house (which also looks gorgeous on its own). Congrats on the winnings and bling!

So sorry it took me so long to get here! I am glad you got it and love it! I was worried about the glass breaking! It does look fabulous in your house! We decorate very similar. The colors in your living room match the colors in mine! I hope you have a great rest of the week.
(((Hugs)))
