My friend Tonya over at Live the Adventure has made my year by honoring me with my first blog award!
Very cool. Now part of the deal with the blog award is that I have to answer these 35 (!) questions, so here goes:

2. Your hair: is dark brown with more and more gray streaks showing up each day
3. Your mother: is fun to talk to.
4. Your father: always has interesting advice.
5. Your favorite food: Fresh Fruit – satsuma, oranges, apples, plums (right off the tree!), strawberries, blueberries, blackberries (right off the vine!), grapes, oh Yum!
6. Your dream from last night: haven’t the faintest clue, but I could tell you my 5yo daughter’s 
7. Your favorite drink: Caribou Coffee Mint Condition Mocha, but when all else fails – hot peppermint tea
8. Your dream/goal: to be a good mommy and wife, and to fulfill my vision of success
9. What room are you in: Office/Living Room

14. Something you are not: a lot of things.
15. Muffins: Chocolate Chocolate Chip (Yum!)
16. Wish List items: happiness for my husband, a ranch and horses for my younger daughter, a trip to Europe with and for my oldest daughter, Robotics for my 10 yo son, and the world for my 7 yo son who wants to be President.
17. Where did you grow up: The Redwood Forest, Humboldt County, CA
18. Last thing you did: Talked to my 12 yo daughter
19. What are you wearing: jeans and a colorful (and comfy) top
20. Your TV: is OFF

22. Your friends: are wonderful.
23. Your life: is amazing.
24. Your mood: varies.
25. Missing someone: my youngest brother Cove
26. Vehicle: a mini-van that is dead. (My husband is graciously allowing me to use his mini-van on the days I need it)
27. Something you’re not wearing: socks
28. Your favorite store: any bookstore!
29. Your favorite color: Blue
30. When’s the last time you laughed: a few minutes ago
31. When’s the last time you cried: last weekend
32. Your best friend: is gracious and forgiving.
33. One place you go over and over: the grocery store
34. One person who emails me regularly: my friend Melissa
35. Favorite place to eat? Out – take your pick (Mongolian grill, Italian, TGIFridays, Fuddruckers, as long as it’s NOT fast food and has flavor!)
Now the second part of this is that I have to pass this award on to 6 other blogs. Oh that’s hard – especially since the first blog that I would choose and can’t is Tonya’s!
If you haven’t met Tonya, well, I recommend checking out her site. She and her family are a homeschooling family on the move – literally!
They are fullfilling one of my dreams, traveling around, homeschooling, in an RV. She blogs about their adventures regularly over on her Live the Adventure blog.
But since I can’t give her back the award, I do have a 6 blogs that I love that I will be passing this on to over the next couple days. So be sure to come back and check out who I choose.
