An Award is Given


July 2nd, 2008

My really cool friend Nicole nominated me for an award. ME! Ok so it’s not like I wrote out a thank you speech or anything….so I’ll just get to it.  But for someone who has only won a crappy t-shirt from a radio station, this feels pretty good.  I was nominated for the “Arte Y Pico” award

“Arte Y Pico” means “peak of art” and here are the rules/guidelines for the award:
1. Choose five blogs you consider deserving of this award based on creativity, design, interesting material, and overall contribution to the blogger community, regardless of the language.
2. Post the name of the author and a link to his/her blog so everyone can view it.
3. Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given him/her the award.
4. The award-winner and the presenter should post the link of the “Arte Y Pico” blog so everyone will know the origin of this award.
5. Please post these rules.

So here they are, the next 5 winners of this award.  They are in no particular order and have all had a profound effect on my life.  Whether I’ve known them for 15 years or 15 minutes, I love them all the same.

1.  Angie –  Our friendship began fall of 1997 in Dorm 6 of Ricks College.  We sang together in Women’s Choir and have been good friends ever since.  Even though we’re thousands of miles apart, I can still hear her sweet voice and remember the good times we’ve had.  I love her posts about emotionally honesty reminding me it’s ok to cry (which i do a lot) but not losing focus on being happy and living a great life which she does so well! :)

2.  Greta – My sister in law of almost 11 years!!! She is the mother the 3 little kiddos that have made me the proudest auntie ever known.  Now that we are close (as in less than 5 min. from each other!) I look forward to our ’sister-ship’ growing.  Her blog is so funny with all the pictures of the kiddos and the musings of being a stay at home mom.  Someday, I hope to have fun posts like her!

3.  K to the J — We were BFF’s before we even knew each other existed.  She exhilarates life and it’s finer things (like Sonic’s limeade!).  Being that she is an English Teacher, reading her blog is like reading a series of hilarious short stories.  Keep bloggin’ girl, keep bloggin’.

4.  Kim — A new friend in my new ward, I stumbled upon her blog by blog stalking (yes, I am a blog stalker).  We haven’t gotten to hangout just yet…but I have a feeling we will be in the future.  One of my favorite things about her blog is the name of it “Hot Diggity Blog” it’s so fun and creative.  Something I hope to aspire to be someday!

5.  Tony – Last but not least, my brother.  We’ve known each other for about 29 years…and have liked each other for about 5 or 6.  It’s safe to say we even love each other now. :)  Tony is actually the reason why I have become a blogger, he’s been doing it for almost 6 years now.  His blog is not updated as much as it should be (ahem) but it’s random assortment of posts keeps me checking it everyday.

    “Arte y Pico” does not mean peak of art, it means Art and Stuff.
