An award ....for me and for others??

Happy Friday...I woke up this mornig to check my blog...and to my happy surprise, I have won my first "blogger's" award!! Being so new to this world, I am not exactly sure what that means but at least I have won. I think it is a "virtual pat on the back" and for that I am greatful. Check out  the award title...The Preppy Mafia..

My hubby will be excited hearing the word "mafia," sometimes I think he thinks he is a real John Gotti. Does the subtitle of my blog "Just try to break this family.." imply we have connections?? LOL! In all honesty I am truly flattered. I want to thank Shannon from Webbisodes ( http://www.ourgatorzone.blogspot.com/ ) for this great award. She was one of the first to come across my blog and become a follower. I am very glad to be meeting some great people in the blogging world and hope that this adventure takes me to a great place. Now..I think I am supposed to answer the questions below and pass this award on to a few of my favorite bloggers. I hope they will participate too. So, here goes..

Welcome to the Preppy Mafia! Now for a few questions, you cannot refuse.


1. Who is your style icon(s)?

I would have to go with Jennifer Lopez..she can looking amazingly beautiful on the red carpet and just as beautiful in her sweats hanging out with her twins.

2. What is your favorite Socialite lit book?

I don't think I have ever read a socilalite book...does the back of the Soprano's DVD cover count?

3. Favorite party theme?

I too am a lover of all parties....don't really have a specific theme.

4. Go in a Halloween costume?

I do love Halloween. Hubby and I have gone to many a party dressed up. Now that I have the kiddles, I get dressed to go Trick-or-Treating with them. This year I was a pirate.

5. Extravagance you cannot live without?

That would be my Coach diaper bag. It was a gift from my hubby when I had my first son and here I am, 4 years later, still using it.

6. Living person you admire?

My husband. He is the hardest worker I know. He will go to any measure to protect his family (did I tell you he thinks he is John Gotti?) and do whatever he has to do to make sure we are taken care of.

7. Greatest fear?

Getting stung by a bunch of bees......

8. Trait you deplore in yourself?

I dislike the fact that I sometimes can be too trusting. I try to always see the good in people, but that has lead me to get taken advantage of in the past.

9. Which talent would you most like to have?

I wish I were able to dance...and dance really good. I never had the opportunity to take dance lessons as I child. You see so many talented people who have done it since they were young and are amazing by like 16!!
10. Greatest Achievement?

Of course, that would be my two boys. Ask me that again in 18 years when I see how they have turned out!

My Preppy Mafia Award goes to.......drumrole please.....
