Overdue Blog Awards!

Within the past two weeks I have received three blog awards and have yet to pass them on.. I feel terrible. Things have been crazy and I've been focusing on creating cards and finishing up my huge thank you note project that I just haven't had the time to pass on all the awards, so I'm going to do it all in one large post.


The first award I received was The Irresistibly Sweet Blog Award, given to me by Angela at Binge Crafter.  

I originally posted about receiving my first award but did not pass it on within that post. I'm supposed to pass it on to seven other bloggers and say seven things about myself.

1.) I just started college and plan on majoring in Elementary Education with a Spanish endorsement so that I can teach elementary school, something I have wanted to do my entire life.

2.) I work at the local public library and could not ask for a better job, seeing that I love to read and I work with some truly amazing people.

3.) I love to learn and take pride in my academic achievements.

4.) I am really indecisive and have a hard time choosing favorites or picking what to do. 

5.) I'm scared of frogs.

6.) One thing I want to do before I die is go to Alaska and see the Northern Lights. 

7.) I love the rain.

Here are seven great bloggers not in any particular order that you should check out:
