Blog Award

My sweet friend Trish gave me a blog award! I am so grateful for my friendship with Trish. She is the type of mother that I hope I will become! She not only loves her children unconditionally, but teaches them how to be better people! She is also an inspiration to me on balancing her family/church/service/community activities/and taking care of herself. She give us unconditionally, and does things that I would never think to do, to make someone elses life easier. Thank you Trish for not only your friendship but for being an inspiration.

I want to pass this blog award on to a couple special ladies.

Renna
Renna is my sister. Soon after Renna was married, she moved up to Wyoming. So we don't get to see each other as often as we would like. Renna has to be one of the funnest moms in the world. Her kiddos are right by her side "helping" her with everything. I'm sure she could get more done, with less of a mess, and in a shorter time, but instead she allows her kids to spend time with her and learn. Ever since we got back from Wyoming, Kyra asks each day, when we are going back to see Aunt Renna. I'm so glad she decided to start a blog, so that I can see pictures of her cute little kiddos. Renna has also saved me a many a times, with her Family Recipe blog. Thanks Renna, love you!

Racheal Bishop
Rachael and I met, here in Tucson, when Kyra and and her little Thatcher were barely 2! She recently moved back East, so her husband could attend MIT. I miss her funny sense of humor, her example, and simply hanging out with her! I can't wait (hopefully) for her to move back! I love checking out her blogs. I am always in a good mood when I finish reading her blog. I love reading all of the fun adventures her cute family goes on! She also has a craft/idea blog. She has such great taste and style!

Sandra Nixon
I just smile every time I read her blog. Sandra is such a beautiful person, with such a wonderful personality. Her husband has deployed more times than anyone I have ever met, and I have never heard her complain, not even once! She is so humble, sweet and friendly. She has a smile, and a ear to listen with for whoever needs one. Thank you for your friendship, and I can't wait for you to come back!

Last but not least, Angela from the Craft Closet. Angela NEVER ceases to amaze me with her beautiful cards and scrapbook pages. Angela is a perfect mother. She has 3 of the most well manered boys I have ever seen! She is so creative, a hard worker, and a fantastic listener. In addition to those things she is a fantastic teacher. She is so willing to share her talents, and tools with everyone! I'm so grateful for everything you have taught me. Thanks!

I want to thank all of these woman for being such a postive influence in my life. Thanks!
