For Madge

Madge at I-Madge-ine the Twaddle tagged me in this post over on her blog.

It sounded like fun to dig through the ole blog again, so I'm going to give it a shot!

Here are the rules:
1| The blogger who is nominated (me) must publish 7 links of his/her own blog for the categories below. (1 link per category).

2| The blogger then nominates 5-7 bloggers to take part, and (hopefully) it goes on.

7| The Post that I'm most proud of:
 "Something New" | This post I'm proud of less for the blogging part, but more because I accomplished so much in a year, and this is my record of that.

6| The post that didn't get the attention it deserved:
"Christmas Memories" | I even called out my sister and cousin in this post to help me reminisce, and no one said a word. It's still one of my favorites!

5| The most surprising successful post:
 "Mr & Mrs. Jonathan Knight" | again, this is because of what I did, not necessarily the quality of the post. My first wedding I photographed. I am so proud of some of the images I got!

4| The most helpful post:
"Be Still : Treasures" | A little faith insight I still struggle with. But someone had hyperlinked me on her blog because she liked it, so I call it helpful (Hi Margaret!).

3| The most Controversial Post:
"Thoughts of American Pride Persuasion" | This one was really hard for me to write, because I don't normally get up on my political soap box.

2| The Most Popular Post:
 "Chicken Never Stood a Chance" | I don't get a ton of comments on my blog, So I just chose one of Aquaman that made me giggle, since he's my most popular subject on this blog!

1| The most Beautiful Post:
"Surprise for Mothers Day" | Fair warning, if you tear easy - DON'T click that link. It was the day I flew home to surprise my Mom for Mothers Day. I ♥ you Momma.

Now here are the ones who get to play along!
1| Mary at "Letting our Light Shine"
She's a "hang out at home Mom" with her little boy Owen, her posts are very well written and make me smile! we miss you here in Washington Lady!
2| Shelley at "The Sprouffskes - Life on the Farm"
I only met Shelley once in person, but I stop by her blog from time to time to check in on her, she's super nice, and has some great recipes!
3| Margaret at "Go Team Skinny"
This blog makes me laugh out loud quite a bit - she's a busy lady in LA who looks to be having the time of her life !

And those are the only three bloggers I know personally - the rest are photographers or friends of friends, and putting them on here would just kind of be creepy.
Thanks for reminiscing with me!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

 8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
