Some time ago we received a lovely message notifying us that we had received an award which was created by our friends over at Just Ramblin’.

This was the message we received:

I just wanted to let you know that you are a Genuine Blogger. Celebrate your blog, as it is comes across to the reader as heartfelt and genuine. There are no rules with this honor. Accept it and relish in the thought that your blog is “award worthy” without having any strings attached. If you choose to give this award to a deserving fellow blogger, please do so with no “rules.” Award it to someone for his or her genuineness in blogging. Free and clear.

An explanation of the award is here.

We had meant post a big “Thank You” for this award and to share it with a deserving fellow blogger,  but somehow it slipped our minds.  It wasn’t until our friends at Just Ramblin’ reminded us that we had never picked up our badge that we realized that we had never shared the award either.  Yikes!  Thanks for the reminder and please forgive us for taking so long to snag our badge and share the award.  Guess we have been a bit scattered lately.

So without further adieu, we have proudly placed our badge where it belongs and we also wanted to share our award with Anna over at AKG Inspiration.  Anna is definitely a Genuine Blogger.  She has mad photo and cooking skillz which makes for fun reading, (but don’t go over there hungry ;)).  Also, Anna has another blog where she shares pictures of Luna, a Vizsla and  Wyatt, a Lab.  Link is here.  She also shares training tips and stories of the dogs she trains.  Well worth stopping by!

And thanks again to our friends at Just Ramblin’ for creating such a great award and for recognizing this blog!  So while you are clicking links, click on over to Just Ramblin’ to read about their adorable Newfie puppy, (who coincidentally was also dealing with stitches at the same time Thunder was dealing with his staples…different reasons, but no doubt just as uncomfortable!  :))

Have a great weekend!
