My first Blog Award!

What a day full of surprises!!! I checked out my blog tonight and my dear blog friend- Jenn at http://imanolagirl.blogspot.com/ sent me the BFF Blog Award! I am so honored. I never thought I would get an award for my blog and me just being me! :) Thank you so much Jenn! You are such an inspiration and love getting to know you through this world we call blogging ;)

Here are the rules - see below:

1. Blog about your award and the person who sent it to you including their link.

2. Tell 7 things no one knows about yourself

3. Pass the award onto 6 new blogs that make you smile and give you inspiration.

Don't forget to let them know about their new award! Then sit back and know you just made someones day:)

1). I am 100 % Portuguese (parents and family are from Portugal).

2). First generation born in the US.

3) I speak 3 languages fluently- Portuguese, English and Spanish. Trying to learn Italian as my 4th.

4). I have a fear of drowning/water. Perhaps thats why I never learned how to swim? lol

5). I was a band geek and orchestra geek-- but in my school all the popular kids were in band and music. Go figuere

6). I can't stand the sound that nail clippers make, it is equivalent to nails on a chalk board. Ugh.

7). I want to retire in Europe :) Plain and simple.. Europe is where I belong for retirement ;)
