DeNae is hands down, the bomb.com!

Heatherlady is not only a fantastic writer, she chooses subjects with substance and value. I love her posts on womanhood, especially her highly researched posts spotlighting each woman mentioned in the scriptures. If you haven’t read Women in the Scriptures you are missing a real treat.

IntheDoghouse, I’m also very impressed with her content. There are so many great bloggers nominated. ๐

I love DeNae!!! She’s the best EVER!! Ever and ever.
The Motherload is awesome! I love her one-liners (usually attached to some picture – kinda like “Here’s your sign”) and especially the awesome and stupid products. Sarah always makes me laugh!
So glad I can vote for more than one! Sarah and DeNae both make me chuckle on a regular basis. We all need that. Vote for MotherLoad!!!
The Mother Load with Sarah is the best ever! She’ll make you laugh whether it’s at her own expense or not. She’s a terrific writer and I love keeping up with her blog! Check out her blog and then vote for her!!! http://themotherloadhome.blogspot.com/
Shelley recently posted…Vote for The Mother Load!
Sarah with The Mother Load blog is the best ever! Makes you laugh even when it’s at her own expense sometimes! A little cheer to any day! Check out her blog and then vote for her!!!
Shelley recently posted…Vote for The Mother Load!
I love Sarah’s blog, it never fails to make me smile!
I am a man blogger and I think DeNae rules!
Man blogger? I think you mean boy blogger. ๐
My daughter Zina’s blog is awesome, even if it is imaginary.
No nepotism here! ๐
Big Red EP has just broken 100. But From Silence to Song has been surging the past two days to challenge he.
The Mother Load and My Real Life Was Backordered are pulling up strongly in third and fourth positions.
Who will triumph? ๐
Alison Moore Smith recently posted…Help to Sleep
I love the Mother Load! I am quite partial since she is my sister!!! ๐
Yes, we value nepotism over at The Mother Load. ๐
Sarah Clark recently posted…Outrageous News- Happy parents are delusional So says science
Oh, DeNae kicks trash and then some! Seriously. I think I’ve seen her kick a can and kick it again. But on a not-so-serious note, DeNae is THE BEST!
L.T. Elliot recently posted…Stitches
Ellen–what a girl!
Go, Ellen, GO!!! Big Red EP has the best pictures and is a consistent blogger–what an inspiration!
Here is a little shout-out to Jenna at Cranberry Corner!
Although she is a complete stranger to me, I defintely look forward to reading her posts. She is so incredibly thoughtful about the decisions she makes. She is earnest and well-meaning and I cheer for her with every new obstacle she overcomes!
I’m voting for Montserrat at Chocolate on my Cranium! Fantastic and inspirational!
The current top two nominees are tied at the moment, and I’ve seen them go back and forth on the lead the past couple of days! We have a great race going! ๐
Alison Moore Smith recently posted…Easy Lunchboxes Save Money On Trips
After a breakaway this afternoon, tied again. The competition is fierce! ๐
Alison Moore Smith recently posted…How to Clean a Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink
Montse is an amazing blogger and woman. She is very talented with her photography and her entries are informative and inspirational. Coming from her “unbiased” sister in law!
We have a surge!
Alison Moore Smith recently posted…Easy Lunchboxes Save Money On Trips
Aimee’s blog is not only one of the most inspirational I’ve read, it’s honest, it’s raw, and it’s real. She deserves to be recognized for inspiring all parents out there with deaf children.
~V~ recently posted…An Interrupted CallandThe F Word
I follow Sarah Clark’s blog regularly, and Aimee is a great online friend. I’m rooting for them!
FYI – Did you know your advertisment on the right side has a lady in only her underwear….not very good for a blog promoting Mormon women. Just thought you should know.
Wah! I’m trying to vet the new advertisers, but It’s different for everyone! I can’t see the advertisers, so I don’t know who to block. :/ And I can’t click on them to find out as it violates the advertising rules.
If any of you see an inappropriate advertiser, please email who the advertiser is so I can block them. Sorry! New system!
Seriously that add is awful. Of course, it doesn’t say who the advertiser is–it’s a mock facebook invite– but obviously not a real one–I’d go back to the “old” system.
Jeanette recently posted…Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas
I can’t, Jeanette. I got click-bombed. I’m doing the best I can to get the site costs paid for. If you’d like to donate to the cause I’m happy to accept!
Whoa! Chocolate has made a late rush!

One more day! Voting ends March 15th at midnight. Get your votes in!
Alison Moore Smith recently posted…Mormon Wedding
midnight in utar???
Is that a Utah joke??? ๐ Honestly, Ellen, I don’t know. I use a plugin for the polls. I assume it’s pulling the timezone from my WordPress general settings (which is set to UTC-6), which would be in Mountain Daylight Time. But there’s an off chance that it’s doing something else.
If I notice that it’s gone past midnight MDT, I’ll stop it manually.
Good luck!
Thanks so much for the nomination. Win or no win, your site has generated more traffic to my blog and helped connect other families who have children with hearing loss or other special needs.
-AimeeTheSuperMom
Aime, so glad to hear it. Your blog is an amazing service to others!
The voting will close in a few minutes. Good luck to you all.
There will be an official announcement post in a day or two to recognize the winners!
Alison Moore Smith recently posted…Backyard Perk Up
So, Montse won!!!?
Yup. The announcement post will be made as soon as we get feedback from the winner and runners up. ๐
