And here's the last 6 things about me:
#5 - One of the best vacations I ever took was with my daughter, Emily, to Hawaii. We had a ton of fun hiking, snorkeling and kayaking. I guess I have vacation on my mind and today was humid and grey...it reminded me of Hawaii.
#6 - My favorite restaurant right now is a local Chinese restaurant called "Mandarin Chef." Very yummy Chinese food...and they make the best Chow Fun!
#7 - When I'm not papercrafting I love to sew. Adriel and I started a quilt last year, which we've yet to finish...maybe someday we'll do that when we aren't having so much fun with paper.
#8 - I love camping and would rather go to all the work of setting up the tent, etc., etc., than spend a week in a hotel.
#9 - I have homeschooled all my children... Daniel is the last one, just another year and he'll be graduated. I will miss teaching him, he's been a very enthusiastic learner.
#10 - And lastly...hmmm, My husband and I will be celebrating our 30th anniversary this year. He's a great friend and companion and I'm so glad that he's the one I'm journeying through life with. He's probably the most honest and truthful person I know and that's one of the things I appreciate the most about him.

Thanks for taking the time to read through this list. Have a great day!

More Blog Award Recipients

Today we're naming two more blog award recipients.

Our second blog award goes to Susan (aka peebsmama). Her cards express fun and cheeriness, and I love that! If you want a pick-me-up today, go visit her site and it will put a smile on your face.

Okay... onto our list of 10 things about ourselves. Since Adriel's out of town this week, I guess this list is all about ME!...Wouldn't it be funny to make a list of 10 things all about Adriel? Since I'm her mom I have a lot of things I could list about her...things I'm sure she'd be absolutely embarrassed to have the whole world know. But, I won't do that, I'll just list things about myself :-)

#2 - I have an old Yellow Lab that's on her last legs (very sad!)...but the upside is that she still thinks she's a puppy, even though her body doesn't cooperate. She's a good old dog!

#3 - I'm in Romans 5 of my Precept Upon Precept Bible Study.

#4 - My son takes weekly guitar lessons about 1-1/2 hours away from our home...we estimate that we've made over 390 guitar lesson trips over the last 8 years. Today is just 1 more trip to add to our total.

I hope you all have a great Thursday!

A Surprise Award

Thank you, Paula, for choosing us as one of the recipients of the Honest Scrap Award...fun! Paula is a scrapbooker who sells some of her fun paper items on Etsy. You can visit her site at:

http://lifeasweknowitbypaula.blogspot.com

So, the rules of the award are that we choose 7 blogs to pass this award onto and tell why we love their blog, we also list 10 things about ourselves, and then we're to leave a comment on the recipient's blog to let them know they were chosen. I like Paula's idea of choosing 7 over several days, as it does take a bit of time. So, that's what we'll be doing. Be sure and check back throughout the week to see who we've chosen and why we love their blogs.

Our first blog award goes to...Deb Rymer!
I love her style...clean and colorful, and she has a wonderful eye for layout. I'm always inspired by her cards. You can view her lovely cards here: www.debrymer.typepad.com

#1 - About us (Heidi)...I'll choose to live in the hot desert over anyplace that's cold and damp.

Thanks for visiting us and we hope you have a great day! - Heidi
