Friends Like You Bless Me



Hey Ya'll. I'm so excited and so honored. My darlin' friend Cindi from Tally's Place has given me my very 1st Blog award. The Happy Blog award. And believe me I am!!!

Now to accept this award I must tell you 10 things that make me happy and then I will pass this on to 10 more blogs that make me happy too. You know the old saying Pay It Forward - So here we go.


10 wonderful things that make me happy:

  1. The Father, Son and Holy Ghost
  2. My Family ~ Neil, my son Ty & wife Christal & Grandchildren Zack, Ki'a & Tristan
  3. Chocolate, particularly Godiva & Lindtz
  4. Giving others something that's just what they wanted or never expected & seeing them smile
  5. Shopping though I've slowed down to null. I love a great bargain. Whether through sale or coupon or better yet both. Love to walk out with it free.
  6. A freshly manicured lawn ~ Oh' that smell & just for that short while it looks magnificent
  7. Traveling anywhere
  8. My Pets
  9. Creativity whether doing it or viewing it
  10. I have to say it......I love contest and sweepstakes or better yet when someone lets me know they think about me. I can't help it, it makes me feel loved and like I make a difference to someone. (Like Cindi).
Now...the 10 blogs I send this award to (in alphabetical order):
  1. Beneath My Heart
  2. Carol Anne's Boutique
  3. Cherry Kingdom
  4. Common Ground
  5. Creative Breathing
  6. Deb's Country Crafts
  7. Fiona and Twig
  8. GypsyMermaidLife
  9. Living Beautifully
  10. The Feathered Nest
I hope everyone will take a moment and visit the blogs I've listed that may be new to you. Thank you Cindi for showing me the Love! Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Hugs....Tracy :)

  1. There are some people God chooses to bless us with, even though we don't deserve it. We don't know why, but He does. I'm so glad He blessed me with you.

  2. Hello Tracy~I wanted to stop by to reconnect. I've had a few absences from blogging and have lost touch with some of my friends.

    Congratulations on your first award.
    I agree chocolate in any form can bring a smile to me too.
    I hope you can stop by so we can get reacquainted.

    Sweet wishes,
    Sara

  3. Thank you sweet Tracy, you're just the best!
    Oh I love your list of things that make you happy! It's good to think about the things we are thankful for, and to remember to tell those close to us that we care. Thank you for always being a friend!
    Lots of love, dear Tracy,
    Debra

  4. Dear Sweet Friend,
    Oh how you do bless me. Thank you for all of the encouragement of late...I've always told the babies that you never know the exponential value of a kind word spoken to someone. It may just be a God moment, it may be the darkest moment of some ones heart and that kind word rescues and sets a different course for the direction that heart will go. You do that for me and the word thank you just seems to fall so short of what I want to say to you. I hope your having a blessed weekend. XO May angels fly with you and carry you on rainbows. Keke

  15. Hi Tracy,
    Firstly congratulations on your blog award!!
    and secondly thank you for stopping by again and your lovely words!
    It would be great if you could visit England there really are some beautiful places over here and I think a lot of English people don't appreciate them enough.
    I live in Yorkshire which is a place of great extremes..heavy industry..beautiful countryside..big cities and tiny picturesque villages! and of course we are famous in yorkshire for of our delicious eatables!

    You mentioned a 'one on one' swap..I'm not entirely sure what that means but I think it sounds interesting and I'm definitley up for it!
    Take care

    You are so sweet!! I can't tell you what your kind words meant to me. There is nothing I desire more that for people to see Christ through me and my blog. Traci and I are always blessed by your visits and we feel the same way about you.
    Blessings,
    Cyndi

  19. I just want to thank my friends for stopping by and leaving such loving comments. It always thrills my heart to see and read such kindness. I've been kind of lax for the past couple of weeks about getting to visit. I've always tried to leave a comment when I do visit but as of late that hasn't always been the case. But never doubt how much you comments and the time you take to visit me means. I hope your all well and blessed beyond measure.

    xxoo's....Tracy :)
