Rules for the award:
1. Provide a link and thank the blogger who nominated you for this award.
2. Answer 10 questions.
3. Nominate 10-12 blogs that you find a joy to read.
4. Provide links to these nominated blogs and kindly let the recipients know that they have been nominated.
5. Include the award logo within your blog post

Here are the 10 questions:  (Here are Mommy's answers...)

What is your favorite color?  Purple

Your favorite animal? Sheltie, Collie, Golden Retriever  (Mommy's first dog was part Collie her name was "Mushka" its a Ukrainian name.  Mommy brother's dog was a Golden Retriever it left a big hole in Mommy's heart when that dog went over rainbow bridge. Of course Mommy loves us Shelties the most.)

Your favorite non-alcoholic drinks? Mommy's favorite is Wild Cherry Pepsi.

Facebook or Twitter? Facebook kinda.  Doesn't use it much.

Your favorite pattern? Mommy likes stuff that's pawprint pattern -- but she doesn't have any clothes in a pawprint pattern.  She wears weird socks though.  The louder and brighter the pattern the better!

Do you prefer getting or giving presents?  Giving. She loves to buy us dogs stuff and see our reaction.

Your favorite number? 3 is a magic number (singing it like in the School House Rock songs)

Your favorite day of the week? Saturday.  Mommy gets to spend more time with us on Saturday than any other day.

Your favorite flower? Gerber Daisy  (You saw our daisy shower curtain in one of our posts before...do you remember when our shower head broke before....)


What is your passion? Music!!! Singing in the church choir and playing the trombone and baritone horn for fun at home.  

Here is a video of Mommy singing in her church choir last week at a Festival of Ukrainian Christmas Carols.  Mommy is standing in the center so the director blocks her at times -- but that's ok.  Mommy sister and Mommy's niece also are in the choir in the video. The Christmas songs are translated to "Tam oo sviti -- There in the World" and "Po Vshomu Svitu -- Throughout the World".
