{oh now, just stop it}

my good roommate Ashleigh has a mom. her mom (check: here) has a blog. i have a blog. someone besides my mom reads my blog (read: ashleighs mom). are you still with me?
anyway, Ashlieghs mom who is named LeAnne just so happened to be reading my blog one day when she decided to give me this:

isnt it so so pretty? know im just not sure what to do with it. should i print it out on some cardstock and wear it around my neck? ooooh! i could add sparkles! that would be cool. no, but seriously. if you know what im supposed to do with it you let me know. thanks.

now on to more important things: giving this pretty little thing to other people. 7 is the rule. i dont know if i know 7 people but i will try.

1. have you met my mama? she is the best in the west. and the north, south, east, and everywhere! she just makes me so dang happy. she is very optomistic about everything and is always has such nice things to say about everyone! and i love her. that is why she gets numero uno.

2. her name is Katie. i used to call her Brenda. i may be a little biased but she has the cutest kid i have ever seen. and she is terribly funny. she lets me come crash at her pad for two weeks every summer and entertains me while im there. and she married my brother. anyone who would marry him after meeting us deserves a blog award.

3. Miss Tristan currently resides in Espana and appears to be having the time of her life. her blog is full of great Spain-ish things and love. always so full of love. i love all things Spain and all things love, therefore i love her.

4. My neighbor Rachel totally gets one. she has the cutest kids and is an awesome mom. she has such a superb outlook on life. she always keeps me up to date on the little kiddos while im away (because we all know she blogs for me). she is very kind and very generous. she will always let you (if you name is Lauren) hold her babies during church, mostly to keep you entertained. Rachel is too rad to go unnoticed.

5. Brenda/Katie's sister Shannon deserves one too. she is so funny and has a great outlook on life. i love her SPT's. she is always doing such fun things with her kidd-o's and if i was had my own i would totally copy her and take them to have tea.

6. the frog killer formerly known as Meeeegan is so rad she should get something pretty and sparkly too. when she does blog she makes me so happy with her funny wit and charm. i wish i was half as cool as her. i wish my blog as half as cool as hers. i wish i was half her.

7. And i shant forget Katherine. she is like, woah. she takes cool pictures, embraces singledom, and she is so smart is kills me. she only anger-blogs every once in a while, but when she does it makes me feel less bad for my anger-blogs. did i mention i love her? because i do.

and there you have it. hope you enjoyed it as much as i did. because i totally did!



ps. ONLY TWO MORE SLEEPS!!
