I'm in Love and it's a Sunny Day

We're still enjoying some gorgeous weather in these parts. I am a little afraid of what this means for our summer though... Record breaking heat in January might mean record breaking heat in July, which I'm not too thrilled about. In other news, the lovely Melissa over at Wear Something Bold Today has given us an awesome little award:

Thank you Melissa! We just love receiving awards, and this one is particulary awesome. It's meant for bloggers who are newer to the scene and have a following of fewer than 200. I see it as kind of a way to get our name out there a little more and hopefully attract new readers :) If you like what you see here, and want to see more, please feel free to follow us on Google friend connect and Bloglovin. If you haven't tried Bloglovin already, we highly recommend it! It's the best way to keep up with all your favorites without constantly having to check their page for a new post (guilty). Bloglovin does it for you! I think it's a blog lovers necessity :)

The rules are:
1. Copy and paste the award on you blog.
2. Thank the giver and link back to them.
3. Reveal your top 5 picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog.

Here are the 5 blogs we're passing the award on to:

Kym of Bitty and Bunny
Belinda and Elishia of b and e
Josie of Fine and Feathered
Hello Friday
Lizzie of Place Clever Title Here...

Enjoy ladies <3
