The Love Ya Award

The Love Ya AwardThe Love Ya Award

It seems lately I have been the lucky recipient of several awards from some terrific blogging friends. Lola D, from Wicked, Wild, Words- writings from the wild side, whose work I admire tremendously, presented Sunflower Ranch with the extremely delightful "Love Ya Award" and I happily and graciously accept!! Thank you so much Lola!!

"The Love Ya Award" rules are as follows:
These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to other bloggers who must choose to pass it on and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award!
Wouldn't you say that the rules are exceedingly charming, too? I do, and in that spirit, I have chosen the following bloggers whose work I find not only exceedingly charming, but spirited, informative, and very upbeat. I always find something of interest everytime I visit these fabulous blogs. I encourage you to visit, too, especially if you love art, photography, or good writing.

Lola had chosen six when she awarded me, so, in turn, I am presenting this award to six bloggers. My nominees for "The Love Ya Award" are: *drum roll please*

Dear, dear Sunflower, you never cease to warm my heart!! I am truly honored to receive this award from you. Ya gotta know that the feeling is mutual a trillion times over ;~D

I'm a bit behind with my blogging and I have some guest bloggers in line for the upcoming week. But as soon as the dust settles, I will be blogging about this and paying it forward!

Milli!! I'm so glad you're happy to accept the award!! And thank you so much for your sweet comments, too!!

It will be fun to see the blogs you in turn award -- it's such a fun way to honor those blogs where you know you can always find something interesting and learn something about the blogger in the process.

I'm looking forward to all your upcoming posts. I know you've been a bit behind -- who isn't? It's summer, lots of places to go and people to see -- I know things around here have been hectic. ;)

But it's back to blogging for at least part of this morning -- and it's good to get back into the rhythm -- lots of fun! :D
