Cindy over at On Our Journey Westward has bestowed upon me the honor of receiving You Make Me Smile award.  Cindy you make me smile too.  I really enjoy reading what your up to and the information you share. 

This is what the person that created this award says about it:  "The thing that I love most about blogging is that I learn so much about a person just by reading their blog. I have met MANY wonderful people with wonderful stories to tell,and I am grateful every day for each person that I have the pleasure of crossing paths in life with.I wanted to create something special for the top ten people who have inspired me through their blogging; the stories they tell, and the lives that they lead with grace and dignity. I visit their blogs for inspiration and encouragement. Please grab your badge and wear it(with a smile) proudly, and pass it on because you inspire and encourage me, thank you."
