Recently I was given a couple of blog awards by the lovely Cari @ Cari Homemaker Deserves a Cocktail.   Thank you so much!!  It's a good feeling to know that others are out there reading along. *blushing*  Make sure to go take a look at the leopard print skirt Cari just made.  It has a very retro vibe going on that I just love!

The first of the awards is the Premio Primavera award.

This  award is given as a thank you for your comments.  The rules are to acknowledge the last nine commenters on your blog and link their blogs as well (if they have one). So to the next nine peeps, thank you so much for reading and all your comments. I heart you guys!!
