Some Beautiful New Awards

What can I say. I didn't have these awards and giving is still a lot of fun so:
First I would like to thank my very talented and blogging friend, Cheryl, at God And I On The Railroad Tracks for bestowing both of the following Blog Awards on me:

The above award is called The Marie Antoinette, a Real Person, a Real Award. The rules are:

The seven people are:

11. Pat at Rubbermaid - Not only are her card's fantastic, she makes and collects cards for kids at her local hospital. You need to see THIS POST and see if you can help out.

This is just a few of the really deserving people like you, but the rules. I chose based on people's blogs I was visiting, if they hadn't received awards, if they weren't getting the traffic they should, and/or if they were new blogs on the block. I really think these awards are meant to motivate and inspire. I apologize for the second update for this post. I couldn't let a good cause slip through our fingers. That's what they have done for me.....So thank you again, Cheryl, and thank you all for stopping by 'the blog' to look and share.
