Old School Tag

Back when I began blogging, over four years ago now, it was quite popular and quite common to get tagged; whether it be with a blogging award or with a getting to know you meme... and well they are back!

Both Mimi of Living in France and Janette of the Johanson Journey tagged me so I figured I would play along.

So the rules

1. Display the award logo on your blog: Check!
2. Link back to the person(s) who nominated you: Mimi From Living in France
   and
   Janette of the Johnason Journey 
3. Nominate 15 bloggers for this award: yea I am doing 7
4. State 7 things about yourself.
5. Notify those bloggers of the nomination by linking to one of their specific posts so that they get notified by pingback. (huh?)

1. I have 5 brothers and sisters all of whom live all over the country and sadly we rarely ever see each other.  It's not that we don't get along, we just all live our own lives I guess.

2. I really don't like showering.  I don't mind it once I am in and probably even like it-- but half of the time it just seems like such a hassle. 

3. I spend way too much time zoned out and only half listening-- especially when my son talks non-stop about legos/roller coasters/cars.  I do feel guilty about it.

4.  I love taking pictures professionally but have hardly taken any since we last moved-- I think I don't fully pursue getting new clients as I still doubt myself a lot.

5. I don't fear public speaking and actually enjoy speaking in church-- and would say I am actually pretty good at it and I would much rather speak then teach a lesson at church, easier not to have to worry about comments and getting people to participate. 

6. I never used to really believe PMS was real- then I hit my 30's and my body thinks it's funny letting me know how real it is.

7. My favorite time of the day is often bedtime-- not my own but my children.  Not only am I so ready for the quiet by the end of the day but I actually really like spending time with my husband, we watch a movie or show together almost every night.  

Now for the tagging-- though I may or may not notify, see how lazy I get-- and just doing 7 because it's a lucky number

1. CA Girl-- so the punk will actually blog again

2. Natalie from Cooperate to Domestic-- love her blog

3. Kmama-- My Proud Mommy Moment partner in crime 
4. Jen Buried with Children-- Mom of 4 (including triplets) been blogging longer than me! 

5. Barbara from Foot Prints in the Sand-- American mama raising her kids in France!
6. Kim From Paper Pieces by Kim-- a brand new blogger so go show her some love! 
7. Julie from Momspective-- a lay it all out there totally honest blogger


So there ya go ladies- tag you are it!

And I had two giveaways end over the weekend!

The first is the Gerber Life giveaway

Congrats Lisa! 

The second giveaway was for a copy of the book Gaze Into Heaven.   

Congrats Mary!

Both winners have been notified.

I will be around this week but a little hit and miss as it is my kids spring break!  Wish me luck.
