award time: a little overdue

Thanks to Stephanie @ How Sweet it is!, Beth @ Laugh Until You Cry, and Erin @ Yes, Our Hands Are Full for this award:


I'll admit it. I'm a stickler for the rules. In fact, I even google the rules of the award if the person who sent it to me didn't follow them, {ahem} Shell. ;)

But since I've already received and given this award I'm not gonna go through the motions again. To see 7 things about me and the 7 blogs that received the award, go here.
