Tonight We're Gonna Party Like it's 1999.

Roll out the red carpet........


Freshen up your lipstick......


Because.......


It's the McMommy Bloggy Awards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Everyone grab a glass of bubbly and get to your seats!




Okkkkkkkkk.........here we go!





The ever amazing Kristen of Loving Our Simple Life gave me this lovely and fragrant award. And today, I would like to give this to award to The Snow Shoveler of Shovelin' Snow. Not only does The Snow Shoveler always stop by to comment and her blog always brightens my day, but she lives in Texas! And being that I am married to a Texan, I feel a special kinship with her! (Plus, she wrote a post about Taco Cabana. So now I REALLY REALLY love her!)





Jen of Cheaper than Therapy bestowed upon me this next award. Jen, if you love me that much, then extend that little girl's hands by 10 feet....because that's how much I love YOU!! I truly admire the way you blog.....it's not just a "mom blog". Jen always has something new, fresh, & fun...the topics are all over the board. And I love it!

So today, I would like to tell 3boys247 of the Testosterone Tales and Karen of Snakes, Snails, & Puppydog Tails that I really do love you this much. And not just because we are amazing baby namers...heh heh. (we all have Carters.) I love reading your blogs because I feel like I am getting a glimpse of what my future will be like raising boys. (Not THREE, mind you. I give you each a TON of credit for raising three boys and you are still alive and kickin'! It gives me hope!)



Ooohh...this next award brought tears to my eyes! Yes, the infamous Don Mills Diva....who's blog I almost feel I am not worthy of reading because she is so high up there in the order of mom blogs.....gave little ol' ME an award!!!!!!!




I would like to bestow the tiara to Rachel of American Mum.....who lives in London, lunches in Dublin, and has dinner in Paris. (or something like that!) I love to live vicariously through Rachel....and lucky for me, she is quite the talented photographer....so I really DO feel like I'm there with her!

I would also like to bestow the tiara award upon Bree of The Story of a Little Man Named Lincoln. Bree is a girl who's GOT.IT.TOGETHER and my day doesn't feel complete if I don't "talk" with her. Plus, I figured she might want a tiara to go along with her stripper shoes.






My BFF Kristen just recently passed this award onto me...is she the best and most generous or what?!

Would Lisa of Life With Our Little Ladies and Beth of Little Princess Chronicles please come up to the stage? I would love nothing more than to pass this to you both! I love reading your blogs because I get to see what raising a daughter would be like. And to see the sisterly bond between your girls....oh, it reminds me so much of McSister and I growing up!

Ooohh!!! This next award makes me feel like doing a tequila shot and dancing the salsa! It's the Arte y Pico award!I felt so CULTURED and of course, honored, when Jen of the Daily Mish Mash AND Heather of A Big Boy, A Baby Girl, And a Precious Pug awarded it to me! Apparently, this award has some qualifications: Choose 5 blogs that you consider deserving of this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also contribute to the blogging community

So would Mommy Learns to Blog, Mamasphere, The Good The Bad & The Ugly, Cheaper Than Therapy and Bubba Bubbles all cha-cha their way up to the stage? Arrrrriba! Arrrrribbbaaaa!! Your blogs have all contributed to my SEVERE blog addiction! And I truly thank you for it!

And for our final award this evening.......

Yes, the McMommy Be Frie award.

This is an award that I hold close to my heart....and around my neck. We are BFF's....Bloggy Friends Forever.....and we have this fake jewelry to prove it.

Heather of A Big Boy, A Baby Girl, And a Precious Pug: Wow. You know you have a true BFF when she promises to blog your funeral. It brought a tear to my eye, Heather! (Can you make sure to blog how fabu I look in my red POW superhero suit? ) You are a wonderful mom to Kyler and Ella and a wonderful friend to me! Thank you for ALWAYS commenting on my crazy posts. That means the world to me!

Mommy Pie: I have to declare my love for you to the world! I get all sorts of giddy and excited when I see you have a new post up. You make me LAUGH OUT LOUD...not just a little "ha ha" in my head....no, a true "spit my drink all over the computer screen it was that funny" kind of laugh. I would like to submit to the jury Exhibit A :this and Exhibit B: this.
(And if you all want to see how I *think* I look when I look in the mirror, check this out. I'm the one in the middle, bottom row, looking WAY mcHAWT. HA!)



Jen of the Daily Mish Mash: I think I might adopt you as my second McSister! (why do my sisters love Tequila Boom Booms so much?) I love your organizational quests, your love of Ryan Gosling, and the fact that you admit that you don't love playing cars. (me either!) I love the mish....I love the mash. I love how you mix it all up and I never know what topic you are going to blog about next.



Book Mama of Hot Wheel Hacienda: I swear I did not bestow this fake jewelry upon you because I won your giveaway (Matty LOVES the book by the way!!!). The truth of the matter is that I LOVE YOUR BLOG! You have a killer combination of smarts & funny....and this phrase that you have under your header "Where every day is adventure, all the milk is chocolate, and there are miniature metal cars within a three foot radius of any spot you stand." DESCRIBES MY HOUSE EXACTLY!!! I swear you and I will make the best of friends!




Wear your fake jewelry with pride, ladies.
I will keep the St Nds half....because as I've said before....everyone knows the Be Frie is the better half!



Congrats to ALL the award winners!!!!!!
Go forth and spread the bloggy bling love!




I'm off to all the after-parties!

Love ya,
