Sunshine Award Assignment Complete!

Sunshine award? I can hear my principal friends laughing out loud at the idea that I would receive any type of award with the word "sunshine" attached. But it's not really an "award" but a challenge. My new found good friend Amber Teaman over at Technically Teamann tagged me in this challenge. She is so smart so I better follow her lead:)

Here is my assignment:
  1. Acknowledge the nominating blogger. (Done:)
  2. Share 11 random facts about yourself.
  3. Answer the 11 questions the nominating blogger has created for you.
  4. List 11 bloggers. They should be bloggers you believe deserve some recognition and a little blogging love!
  5. Post 11 questions for the bloggers you nominate to answer and let all the bloggers know they have been nominated. (You cannot nominate the blogger who nominated you.)
11 Random Facts about me........
