You know I had never heard of the Gargie Award, that is until the award was bestowed upon me by the one and only Lanaya from Raising Reagan! Thanks momma, I am honored to receive such an awesome award from an even awesome-r blogging bestie! ...and all my lovely readers, if you aren't following Lanaya's blog, you should. She rocks! After accepting her Gargie Award, she wrote, "I am honored by the friendships I have made through blogging. It's amazing how you can become close to people without ever having met them." I couldn't have said it better myself!
I have been actively blogging at Boys Oh Boys since June of last year, and I feel so blessed to have such "close" friends even though we are all "far" away. I don't know what I'd be doing right now if I hadn't started blogging again. I probably would have been committed by now! I kid. The relationships that I have developed with my amazing bloggy friends are priceless to me, and I am very grateful for each and everyone one of them! Hugs and kisses y'all!
If you aren't familiar with the Gargie Award you can find some information over at The Bookshelf Gargoyle, it's the home of the Gargie.
Alrighty, now on to the rules. There aren't many. I promise.
• Display the award badge on your site.
• Publish a post to inform the world of your great achievement.
• Nominate some fellow bloggers (who have been outstanding in their field or perhaps who you admire).
• Indicate to your nominees that they have received the award… provided you have completed step three.
Now the fun part, I get to give this award to the inspiring, fun, friendly and wonderful bloggers I have met along this journey...
The bloggers that are listed below (in no particular order) have in one way or another inspired me, embraced me, helped me or touched my life in one way shape or form during my blogging journey. I don't want to offend anyone who is not listed, because trust me, I appreciate all of you!! (...and yes Lanaya you are one of them, but I can't give the award back to you...at least I don't think I can. Can I? Ha ha!)
Anywho, so here goes it...
1. Monica at Marino Bambinos
2. Haley at Team Ibrahim
