Ms Bright Side Award!

My wonderful friend, Bonnie, gave me this awesome award the other day! Her blog is so amazing, which matches her personality to a T! She updates daily with great projects, so I always have something to read. I love getting these things! It reminds me that there are people out there actually looking at my work, and getting to know me! I do have to say though...the picture reminded me of one of the characters in that creepy movie, Coraline :)

Now it's my turn to share 10 things that make me happy, 5 pieces of trivia about myself, and pass this on to 5 other bloggers!

10 things that make me happy:

1. My husband
2. My Mom and Dad
3. My dog, Rose
4. My Macbook Pro :)
5. Inky Fingers and a finished project
6. Shopping, not necessarily spending money though
7. All 7 of my jobs
8. Coffee
9. A good song on the radio
10. Living life - I am so blessed to wake up each day to the life I have!

5 facts about me:

1. I've only been paper crafting for about 10 months.
2. I have a condition called Gilbert's Syndrome that makes it difficult to consume spicy foods or beer - which I can't stand any way. My real dad's name is Gilbert.
3. I am, and always will be, a musician. I was a drum line captain in high school.
4. During my entire 21st year, including a honeymoon in Vegas, I can count on one hand how many times I've been carded for alcohol/gambling.
5. There is a news reporter in my town with the same first and last name. Since my wedding last year, I've been asked if I had heard of her about two hundred times.

5 Blogger friends - I don't know many bloggers personally, but I'm going to award this to bloggers that brighten my day when I read their posts!
