So excited that Savahanna at http://svioratomora.blogspot.com/ has bestowed upon my humble blog the

So, here's how this works.  When you accept the award, you must:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award.
2. Share 8 things about yourself.
3. Pay it forward to 8 bloggers that you have recently discovered.

So 8 things about myself:

3.  I am the wedding coordinator at my church.

5.   Besides scrapbooking and cardmaking I love to decorate cakes and read.  

6.  I don't really like to cook.  Luckily my husband is a great cook!!!!!! (He is Sicilian and a retired fireman so of course he cooks)
