My First Blog Award!

While I was having a wonderful vacation with my family this past two weeks... My good friend, Diana, nominated me for a Kreativ Blogger Award! I haven't had the opportunity share this with all of you and to go through rules for this award, but now I do...

About Me:

2. Married at 18 to my wonderful hubby, Jon. We've been married 6 years and have two wonderful, noisy girls :o)
3. Lived in Baja California, Mexico for two years at a free deaf school with Jon and now live in Costa Rica.
4. I am part Swedish, Norwegian and German.
5. Rode and showed hunter/jumper horses for several years (professionally in the last few years). Still love and ride horses.
6. I learned to love cooking and baking by being in the kitchen alone. I didn't really have anybody to show me the ropes, but it came so naturally to me.
