Wednesday, November 21, 2007 - HSBA Nominations Are In
There are so many wonderful blogs to choose from in each category. We are going to have to choose who to pick for what!! I have already gone to a few friends' blogs today and saw the HSBA Nominee Icon. Looks great.
I was going to list those whom I already read or am friends with, but instead, I think I will do it category by category, because I would like to look at those I do not know too. I know I haven't met all of my favorite bloggers from the Awards last year, but I did meet some, and it will be fun (if I get the chance) to meet other like-minded homeschool mommas, etc.!
Here are 2 categories:
Best Homeschool Mom Blog
Along the Narrow Path
A Path Made Straight
By Sun and Candlelight
Cottage Blessings
Eclectic Education
Especially Heather
Here in the Bonny Glen
Higher Up and Further In
HsKubes’ Haven at Home
Janne’s Jabberwocky
Just Some Stuff
Large Family Mothering
Less of me ~ More of Him
On Our Journey Westward
Our Homeschool and Other Such Happenings
Preschoolers and Peace
Riverbend Prep
Robin’s Egg Blue
Sand Between My Toes
Seeking Rest in the Ancient Paths
SoCalVal – Just 4 Homeschool Families
Sprittibee
Studeo

Sometimes I’m Actually Coherent
The Mango Times
Walden’s Wits
CONGRATULATIONS!!! To all of you who were nominated! Really. I wish you the best. And, to Heather and the HSBA crew... you all did a lot of work, and dodged many bullets. Even Amanda had some mud slung at her.. (I probably have, too, by now! we just haven't found it yet.) But, thank you thank you thank you. You are a very special group of ladies and friends.
 Thank you for nominating my Homeschool blog! I have been nominated in these categories:
Best Homeschool Mom Blog
Best Unschooling or Eclectic Homeschooling Blog
Best Encourager Blog
Best Nitty-Gritty Homeschool Blog
I told the ladies on the HSBA team that had I not been nominated that would be fine. I mean, I blog for a couple of reasons: 1) to keep a journal of my thoughts and our lives, and 2) to encourage other homeschool moms. However, it *is* nice to be nominated. I do know that my girls nominated me, and I am not ungrateful. Of course. :)
My girls were also nominated in these categories:
Amanda:Best “Live What You Believe” Homeschool Blog; Best Teen Gal Blog
Jocelyn:Best Teen Gal Blog
Rachel:Best Cyber-Buddy Blog
LucyLillie: Best NEW Homeschool Blog
Also:
Eric Novak: Best Teen Guy Blog ... I think he is pretty much related... like an adopted nephew....
Home Where They Belong:
Best Current Events, Opinions, or Politics Blog
Best Curriculum or Business Blog
Best Family or Group Blog
Best Curriculum or Business Blog
HSB Company Porch:
Best Variety Blog
ALSO.... don't forget about The 25th Homesteading Carnival and the Carnival of Homeschooling at HomeschoolBuzz.com. They are also very good places to meet other bloggers and find some very interesting posts too.
blessings!

Your blog is wonderful, Amy. Truly, in so many ways. We love it. Unfortunately, at this late date... Amanda, Jocelyn and I have had to remove ourselves from the running... so, this is quite bittersweet.
