Awards

I have now calmed down a bit from yesterday's trainer ordeal. I am taking my camera and video camera with me to the barn today. So, I am looking forward to 12 noon when my babysitter gets here and I can be off to see my horse, no matter where he is.

I also have been neglecting to post some awards that I have been given. I have not forgotten about them. The first one I received was from Cowboys, Kids, and Sunsets. Thank you so much!! Train Wreck, you are too kind!

This award has made its round through blogging world, so I hope I am not re gifting when I give it out to these five. Here are the details about this award.

1. You have to pick 5 blogs that you think deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also for contributing to the blogging community, no matter what language.

2. Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone.

1. Karen over at The Rocking Pony. She has a lot going on over at her place. Between 6, or is it 9, dogs, four kids, some horses and ponies, and a really nice store where she sells handmade kids' clothing, there is always a great story to tell. Plus I love her sense of humor.
