    1. Hi Taci...it's nice to know more little things about you! It's funny we both thought of each other, for I received an award from another blogging friend with the same award but it looks a little different and I nominate you to receive this award also! Thanks so much for thinking of me. I will not participate in this one but will gladly accept the award for I just went through all those questions already once today....it was a lot! but fun!
      Hugs, Shari

    2. Hello my friend! Thank you for this very sweet award. Shari also nominated me today! How blessed I am to have such wonderful friends. I will answer the questions you asked on my blog, but probably not participate because most of the blogs I know have shown up on these two lists!

      I also received the package from you this morning! Our mail carrier delivered it to the neighbor on Saturday and she just brought it over today. Thank you SO much! I love the crochet hook holder. It was so sweet of you.

      I'm planning to be in Portland March 7. Lunch with the girls???? Oh I hope so.
      Blessings,
      Betsy
