I am so excited to have been recently nominated for The Versatile Blogger Award

and The Very Inspiring Blogger Award

I was nominated for these awards by Tonya from Forth Generation Farmgirl .  Tonya’s blog is about her adventures growing up on a family farm in Virginia and her life now taking care of the same farm that has been in her family for over 100 years.  If you share a passion for old family recipes, a love for animals, and an appreciation for the simple things in life, Forth Generation Farmgirl is a must read blog.

Thank you Tonya for nominating me for these awards.

With accepting these awards there are a few rules to follow…..

1. Show the Award(s) on your blog.
2. Thank the person who nominated you.
3. Share seven facts about yourself.
