The Liebster Award

Yesterday I was awarded the Liebster Award! 

 

 Thank you Beth @ Far From Camelot  - your write-up about my blog was such a sweet encouragement to me, I feel very honored! :)

"Jennifer @ a Fine romance - Jennifer is a Faithful mom of three who just started homeschooling.  She writes about her passions, family and now her homeschooling adventures!  A VoiceBoks member, she has fabulous style and creativity, just check out the school room she designed and remodeled!"   

The Liebster is awarded to spotlight up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers.

Here are the guidelines a recipient should follow:

1. Thank the giver and link back to the blogger who gave it to you.
2. Reveal your top 5 picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog.
3. Copy and paste the award on your blog. 
4. Have faith that your followers will spread the love to other bloggers. 
5. And most of all - have fun!

Here are my top 5 bloggers who I believe are well-deserving of the Liebster Award:

Kelly @ The Billhime Clan

Julie @ The Hopple Family

Crystal @ A Simple Heart For Home

Cassandra @ Unplug Your Family

 

Lauren @ Enchanting

Go check them out!  

Each of these girls are super inspiring and award worthy in their own right and I've learned so much from reading their blogs. :)

So, thanks again, Beth! I'm happy to share the love.

Have an AWESOME day, girls!

And The Award Goes To.....

...A Fine Romance! 

THE CROWD GOES WILD...

...okay, maybe just me.

A great big THANK YOU to Kelly from The Billhime Clan for nominating me for The Versatile Blogger Award. 

Along with this award come a few rules of course. First I need to share 7 tidbits about myself:

1. I've got interest in Pinterest.We're pretty much an item at this point.
2. I HATE painting but LOVE spray painting...neither of which I am any good at.
3. I am both a night owl and a morning person. I get very little sleep in between.
4. I love buying produce at the farmer's market and milk at the dairy. No more one stop shopping for me.
5. I wonder when I am ever going to FEEL like a grown up. 
6. I have far too many irrational fears. With that being said, the very best things in my life have come from stepping outside of my comfort zone.
7. I am currently really loving the color white.

Now it is time to pass along this award...

I give this award to:

• Crystal at  A Simple Heart For Home
• Megan at Feathering This Nest

Thanks again, Kel! :)

And This Award Goes To...

A Fine Romance!
:)

Just wanted to extend my great big THANK YOU to Kelly from Billhime, Party of Four for honoring me with this award. I'm excited...I never got an award here on blogger before!

Whoo hoo! :)

Here are some rules that go along with this award. First I need to share 7 facts about myself that you may not know, and then I will pass the award to 5 fellow bloggers.

So...here we go!

7 facts about me:

1. I am deathly afraid of heights.
2. I cannot watch horror movies. I can't even watch a preview/trailer without being haunted by the evil images. There have been instances when I have "had" to watch a horror movie and I literally sit through the whole thing with my hands either over my ears or over my eyes and I have to repeatedly remind myself that it's JUST a movie. Kinda pointless! ;)
3. Beauty in nature moves me to tears.
4. I like being alone. Not permanently alone but I do legitimately enjoy my own company.
5. I can't understand why more adults aren't friends/friendly. It's weird...so often, we are side by side with people that we don't know but are too afraid to even say hello. I wish that we could all be like little children...they see another child and say, "Hi. I'm so and so. Wanna play?" The other kid smiles and says, "Ok!" and off they go (cut to them being "best friends" 10 minutes later). I don't think that I ever grew out of that thinking...but try to do that when you're older and people will just think you're an odd duck! :) "Strangers are just friends that you haven't met yet."
6. I'm a deep thinker. That bothers some people. People get nervous when you ask too many questions. I hate that.
7. I LOVE watching beauty guru videos on youtube. Especially the "What's in My Purse?" ones...talk about going from one extreme to another - can't get more superficial than that! :)

I now pass this award on to:
