Hey ya'll....I got an award.
*wipes tears from eyes in a dramatic fashion*
(This is my first award.)
First and foremost, I'd like to thank God. Second, I'd like to say "HOLLA" to the Prince, my heirs, the King and Queen, and all my peasants who have become fodder for my blogging...........blah, blah, blah.
This is the point where people tend to get up and go get another vodka diet coke so I won't bore you with the rest of my speech.

Actually, I got the this same award twice.
First, my blog friend Shell from Things I Can't Say gave it to me.
Then, Jessica from Atlanta Mothers Guide regifted it to me.
Or maybe it was the other way around.
Or maybe they just shop at the same store.
I'm not real sure, and I don't really care.
I'm just happy to receive my first award.
I know some of you more experienced (read: Ho) bloggers will probably be yawning and rolling your eyes.
And don't be pulling a Kanye on me and telling me how I am not the most deserving blogger for this award.
I KNOW there are some waaay more deserving than me. (Duh.)
And I will be listing them so you can all go visit them and say, "Yep. They are way more deserving."
But first, I have to do some work. This award comes with great responsibility. I'm supposed to list 10 things that make me happy. I'm going to skip the obvious things like the Prince and my heirs....mostly because I don't want to make you gag. But also because the emotion they conjure up is way beyond making me happy. (It's okay if you feel the need to dry heave before you continue reading.)
Numero Uno...(but not necessarily my top choice...though quite possibly it is.) Mac. No, he is not a human, but he is indeed my lovah. (Just ask the Prince.) I love, love, love my Macbook. We are inseparable. We laugh (at blogs, youtube, etc.), play (scrabble on facebook), watch TV (abc.com) and shop (ebay, amazon, Gap) together all the time. He is my soulmate. (My other one. Cuz I have two souls. One is black. The other is pink. Right Supah?)
2. My camera. I love my dslr. I have had it for less than a year and I love it more than words can express. I wish I had gotten it earlier. I am hooked and now want to spend more money than the camera cost in the first place on accessories like lenses and external flashes. This could end up being a real money pit fo sho! But it allows me to capture gems like these and it makes my heart all warm and tingly.
I could continue uploading pic after pic, but you (unless you are my mom) didn't come here for that.
3. Summer.
I am miserable right now. I hate, hate, hate, cold weather. I am my happiest when it is around 90 degrees. I will probably turn into a human popsicle for real when I get old(er) and my skin turns into tissue paper.

4. My boat.
I miss my boat something fierce. Nothing makes me happier than hanging out on the lake with my family and friends, watching my boys on the wakeboard, grilling burgers on our Coleman grill, laying out on the dock feeling the rock from the wake of other boats, feeding and rescuing ducks from certain death... (There's a blog story in there, but I already told it on facebook before I had a blog. I might just revisit it sometime for all my bloggy friends.)

Have I mentioned that winter sucks?
5. My frenz like Lucy, Serena, Peaches, Dolly, Pamela...there are more...but I haven't figured out code names for you all yet.
6. Youth sports.
We spend a LOT of time running back and forth between home and the baseball/soccer fields and the basketball courts. I love it and wouldn't have it any other way! (Warning...more pics.)

Okay...I'm going to make the rest of these fast...cuz I know if this post it too long you'll stop reading anyway. So here goes the rest of my list. I'm thinking they are self explanatory anyway.
7. Mexican food....and Italian...and Southern.....oh, who are we kidding ALL food.
8. Rainbow, kittens and puppies.
Bahahahahaha....not really. But a well trained dog would make me happy. Or having my 20 year old dog we lost last year back on earth with us....THAT would make me REALLY happy. RIP Auggie (aka...Aug Dog or Auggie Doggie) We still miss you dearly.
9. LASIK.
If you've been hanging out on my blog long enough, you already heard me sing the praises of LASIK. Best. Thing. Ever.
10. Good TV.....as opposed to bad TV....and yes, I am including Jersey Shore in the "good TV" column. It is a conversation starter FO SHO! That, and it makes me feel really good about MYSELF! I am also including my favs like Grey's Anatomy, Lost (coming back soon), most of the Real Houswives, Brothers and Sisters, Phineas and Ferb (pretty much the only cartoon that doesn't make me want to hurl)....and yes, I could go on and on here, but I promised I wouldn't...so I won't.
Now, without further adieu....I pass along this award to the following bloggers. Do with it what you want. I could care less if you make your list of 10. I just want people to click on your pages and see what all the hub bub is about. *smooches™
To those of you whom I OBVIOUSLY left out.....so sorry! But I'm rushing off to meet a friend and her kids at the movies on our last day of Christmas Break! I'll get you next time!

Aww, thank you!! That's the third time I've received that award! Sweet!!
Mexican and Italian food. Mmmm. You and I would get along so well IRL. ;-) Eating and taking pics. LOL
Congrats on your award! How about we jump right to the premiere of Lost (last one...so sad) and then straight to summer?
Congrats on your award and winter sucks bigtime!
I'm very jealous of your slr and your lasik. Two things I desperately want. I'm assuming that lasik will eventually become so commonplace that I can order it through a drive-thru window and get it with a side of fries. Maybe by then, I'll be able to afford it.
I'm convinced that there are many little incestuous bloggy circles and that's why you can't figure out who gave it to you first. And why many people are getting this on the same day.
Your award looks yummy!
I have left another award for you at my blog. Swing by and pick it up when you have time!
Please stop it with putting Jersey Shore in the good column! Even though it's excellent good fun. ;)
Congrats on your award!
Holla...Thanks, Princess :)
Congrats to you!!
Congrats and yes, Lasik is the bomb!
xoxooxo ty
I totaly agree with Shell...PLUS you deserve it!
I've very proud of you. And I also think it's for the best that you can't see my face at the bottom of the post.
HOLLA!!! What about our 29th birthday present to ourselves! The thought of that is making me happier and happier!!!!
Now is that good mexican food like we have down here?
awe
I feel a tear coming on
Sarah.....YES! You know the Mexican food I'm talking about!! I don't know if I can wait until July...... :(
Sorry Bryce! I ran out the door before I checked to see if everything posted correctly. Apparently your IT department doesn't want me to copy/paste your logo. Sheesh...
Peaches....Holla back girl! ;) Meeeee toooooo!!!!
I love your taste in TV :-)
Do you watch Brothers and Sisters? If not, you just might like it!
Congrats on the award!
I will get to checking out the other blogs!
Yay for awards! I'm still waiting on mine!
Girl...I am right there with you on the cold! WTH is 2*F?! It should be a law to never get below 72*....EVA!
Mexican food...Yummy! Love the $.99 Margaritta's between 2&5 as well! Whoot - Happy Hour!
Great post! :)
Congrats! And I'm totally with you on the whole summer thing.
You forgot about me!! And, yes, I need more pics!
Chill, Mom! I said in the beginning I was going to skip the obvious ones!!! *smooches™
I find it hilarious that your mom chastised you on your blog.
Congrats, darling. Thanks for tagging me. I'll be getting to it eventually. You know what a ne'er do well I am....,
