One Lovely blog Award

I was recently surprised, pleasantly I might add, to see my blog listed by Heather Wilkinson Rojo for a Lovely Blog Award.  I am still amazed that people actually read what I write, never mind other fantastic bloggers.  So there are rules for this award, as follows.

1. Thank the person who nominated you and link to that blog

2. Share seven things about yourself

3. Nominated 15 bloggers you admire (or as many as you can think of)

4. Contact your bloggers to let them know that you've tagged them

Thank you Heather at Nutfield Genealogy for my Lovely Blog Award!


Seven things about me:

1. I was born in Boston, Massachusetts, well Chelsea really, but Boston is where my parents lived.

2. I was an Air Force Brat and lived in Holland, Spain, Texas and New York

3. I was an Air Force Nurse, and am mother to one Air Force Brat who was born in England

4. I live in Texas, so far away from my New England ancestors!

5. I love books!

6. I love to cook!

7. If I could stay home all day and write my blog I would, jobs are so annoying.
