Blog Award: Stylish Blogger

 

Yeah, I have been awarded the Stylish Blogger award by: Julie . She deserves this award more than I do. She is definitely a stylish blogger full of wisdom and humor. I get stuck in her blog way too much. So thank you, Julie from Hesses Madhouse, and Mother of the year in Oregon.

So here are the rules

1. Link back to the person who awarded you. (see above)
2. Tell us 7 things about yourself (see below)
3. Award 15 more deserving blogers
4. And the time consuming part: tell the people you have awarded.

So here I go: 7 things about me

1. This came on the very day I decided that I have been spending too much time reading blogs, and not enough time reading scriptures.  I put up blogs and I want to read and get in snatches sometimes long through out the day. I decided I better  start doing that with scriptures more. So, I am going to spend less time on blogs. But, I learn so much from all the good people out there in the blog world that I am still going to be popping in and out of your blogs. 
2. Everyday, I am grateful for my big family. I truly love being a mother of many.
3. I am addicted to chocolate, especially dark very expensive chocolate. 
4. I have always had the problem of wanting to be like everyone else. This may not be noticeable anymore because with 8 children I am definitely different.
5. Even though I have always wanted to be like everyone else and really cool and fun. I am really just a boring, nerdy girl. Now I am too busy to worry about that anymore.
6. I am ever the pessimist except when it comes to having children and marriage and all. I think families are the absolute best thing and it makes me sad for people who chose things over family. I am trying not to be so pessimistic.
7. Seven things is a lot. I am pretty boring.
