The Reader Appreciation Award, presented to me by Reene at CRAVESADVENTURE is an opportunity for me to thank some of the kindest bloggers that I’ve met. With their generous comments and faithful readership, their following keeps me motivated to keep blogging. It is such an honor to know that there are people out there that actually like my “stuff.” So thank you from the bottom of my heart, and I appreciate you, as well as those who are not nominated here for following Hoofbeats & Footprints.
My nominees for the Reader Appreciation Award are:
1. Phil Lanoue Photography
2. Bente Haarstad Photography
3. Le Drake Noir
4. Fey Girl at Serenity Spell
5. Sylvia at Another Day in Paradise
6. Madhu at the Urge to Wander
7. Maggie Moose Tracks
And a special honor to Renee at Craves Adventure who extended this award to me.

The next award to be presented is the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. This award was generously awarded to me by Joanne at Wood & Rope. Although her blog isn’t up-to-date, her creativity is very much alive. This award is for those bloggers who I find their content inspirational, through both the eyes and the spirit. Truly, we are all artists here of some form of another. Whether it be photography, poetry, or motivational words, we all have something worthy to share.
My nominees for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award are:
1. Rebecca the Clan Mother.
2. Corinne at Soulsnet
3. Ian Spagnolo Photography
4. Leanne Cole Photography
5. Will Meneke
The final award being presented tonight is the Super Sweet Blogging Award. Awarded by Corinne at Soulsnet, she defines what a sweet blogger is. A very kind spirit who helps us find meaning in life. All of the bloggers I have met here are special people, and we are fortunate to have a wonderful blogging community. This was really evident during Hurricane Sandy when many readers showed their caring and concern for our well being. So thank you all for being awesome.
With no further ado, my nominees for the Super Sweet Blogging Award are:
1. Judy at Petit 4 Chocolatier (enter at own risk)
2. The Wanderlust Gene
3. Nuts for Treasure
4. Sharon at a Leaf in Springtime
5. Lisa at “I write what I like”
6. Lizzie Joys Photo Suite
For the nominees of these three awards, I would love for you to pay these forward. As you can tell, this time of year causes me to pause and give thanks to those in my life. To all of my readers, Thank you so much for being here !
