Time of Gratitude

My blog, Dirty Footprints Studio, is a complete labor of LOVE. So when a fellow blogger acknowledges and honors my work with a blog award it deeply touches my heart. This week I had the honor to receive two blog awards and one nomination, and I am truly grateful.

I would like to thank Alex, who is a very Creative Juicy homeschool’n Mama who writes two very lovely blogs: Serendipity and My Create Corner for passing this award on to me. She is also an Art Every Day Month co-hort and I’m loving every thing she’s doing!!!

Now, these awards always have a catch…..this one requires me to share seven things you may not know about myself. Ok….here I go…..

1. I have been terribly, horribly sick all week.
2. My middle name is Pauline.
3. My toe nails are painted a deep burgundy.
4. I love getting pedicures!
5. My bathroom is a mess.
6. Last night I had a dream that I took a train to get my hair cut, and when I got to the salon it was filled with my seventh grade class that I teach art–and they were all trying on jeans. Yeah–what the?!?!

For this next award I would like to thank Paula- Buenos Aires from the super cool blog Happysnappy In the Jungle—-a chica after my own heart!!! Muah!

Luckily I don’t have to do anything for this one…except wait and see what the judges decide! Ha!

Last, I know this is the time I am suppose to pass these wonderful awards on to other fabulous bloggys…..but, I hate to single out just a few….so instead I would like to take this opportunity to point out the link on my navbar above that says “cool chicas“…if you brush your cursor over it, you will get juicy creatives, soulful yogis, and past interviews. There is where I keep a list of very inspiring bloggys and each of those Lovelies are deserving of these awards and a trip to Hawaii. Unfortunately I can not provide the latter.

Thank you so much to EVERYONE for supporting Dirty Footprints Studio and for help making my Creative Juicy Life so much fun!!!

Peace & Love.
