Well I was very honoured to be nominated today for two of the prestigious and coveted Okie Blog Awards.
These awards are the highlight of the Okieland blogging community year and have been going strong since 2005. The organiser does a wonderful and very tough job counting all the nominations and then the votes. This year Jenx67 took over this daunting task and is to be thanked for all her hard work.
I am nominated for two:
Best Representation of Oklahoma
Best Rural Blog
After looking around my site, I do think my blog accurately reflects these nominations, although I had never thought of it categorised in this way before. I have some stiff competition, including that blogging world super power known as Pioneer Woman in both. Hence the reason I expect to be a bridesmaid!
But if you're an Okie blogger yourself and are feeling generous, I would greatly appreciate your vote for my blog far far out here in the wilds of NW Okieland.
Voting closes at midnight on Valentines Day, good luck to all the worthy nominees.
You go girl! Then you will have to change your name to Brit Girl in Okieland.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you. :D
Can non-Okie citizens vote, too? If so, I'll vote for ya.
ReplyDeleteRots o Ruck!
Congratulations! I was thrilled to see you among the nominees.
ReplyDeleteThank you ladies, sadly Gigi no only Okie bloggers can vote. But then again if anyone could, the PW would walk away with every award!
ReplyDeleteCongrats my friend, well deserved.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't surprise me in the least that you are nominated twice! I'm sure you will walk away a winner...you already are one as far as I'm concerned!

Hey, PW is a great blog, and so is YOURS!!
ReplyDeleteOf course I'll go vote for you. Would you vote for me too? I wish they were open to all Oklahomans to vote, because I really don't know that many Okie bloggers. Do you? I think I'm under single topic.~~Dee

ReplyDeleteGood luck girl! You do a great job of representing Oakieland.
