Face Behind the Blog


Misty_Dawn from Dreams of border collies tagged me for this meme. It's called Face behind the Blog. The idea is, I tell you a little something about myself and show you a picture of me...I then get added to a blog roll......I pick some bloggers to participate there it goes. Please check out Dreams of border collies for more information as to how to play along.

Most of my regular visitors know what I look like and a lot of the things I do.

Skittles from Skittle's Place says I am one of the most daring women she knows, I don't know about that but I do like to have fun and push my limits.
My first skydiving experience.....Going Parasailing.....that's me waving...Quadding with my daughter on the back.....I love to downhill ski....this is me and my youngest daughter... This is my baby....I love to drive fast....I have been known to do 220km/hr in this car.....

I love to do all kinds of sports.....softball, waterskiing, knee boarding, fishing,swimming...you name it....even miniature golf

Me youngest daughter and son.....I try to be crafty....I have started to make cards.....These are my first attempts at making cards......I also like to bake.....That's my pumpkin cheesecake and pumpkin bread in the background......I'm a really "theme" gal...if there is a party there has to be a theme....this was for a parade we were in .....can you figure out what the theme would have been?I'm a mom to three wonderful girls....this picture is about 4 years old.....The picture below are the men in my life.....hubby and our boys....I am one of 12 children.....my youngest brother wasn't even born when this picture was taken....can you find me in the picture? This was taken last month....the boys and I had just finished swimming in the river.....oh yeah...I love to ride tubes down fast moving rivers and streams.....I REALLY want to go white water rafting.....that's after I learn how to surf...... So there you have it.....the face behind the blog.....

In a word... AWESOME! Wow-what a wonderful post! You truly live life to the fullest and I admire you for that! I bet you are one of the most fun moms ever!

If you have a chance, would you mind posting the recipe for the pumpkin bread? I really wanted to bake something like that around Thanksgiving but never got around to finding a recipe. I'd really appreciate it!

EA Monroe said...

This was great! I love getting to know the faces behind the blog. What an adventurous lady you are! Wow! Go for the gusto. I'm guessing the theme in the one picture was Flowerchild of the 60s!

Hi Smalltown,

I'm game just one or two photo's though is that ok? Give me a couple days, just got back from Denver a couple hours ago. Lot's of catching up to do.

Oh and thanks! I guess?

Susie said...

Great pictures and you are one adventurous and talented lady!

Abigail S said...

Love the pics!

Sorry for being absent for such a long time. :(

But now I'm back, and coming in full force! :)

Drew said...

Wow, all great pics, but I gotta say - PUMPKIN CHEESE CAKE! PUMPKIN CHEESE CAKE! True story - I get pumpkin pie instead of a b-day cake for every b-day. And now we have pumpkin cheese cake. I must make this!!!

Drew said...

PS - you are easily the most daring person I know.

I found my way here by way of Skittles Place. Perfect post for an introduction.

You have a lovely family.

Barb said...

See? I told you you were! Not to mention gorgeous and having a lovely family!

Please drop by and read about My Linky Love Dream. :)

Tammy said...

What a fun lovin' gal you are!
In the family photo I pick you as the second gal from the left on the back row??
:)

I'm thinking 2nd from left front row beside your mother. Cute smile. I'm envious of all your great activities. Check out my latest post to see why I can't participate in all those things anymore. :(

Jo said...

What a beautiful family, all of them past and present. I think you're second from the left in the back row. But my goodness, you all look alike.

I love your car, and your cards, and your cake. You're a busy gal...!

Cheers,
Josie

Smalltown RN said...

Ok seeing as a few of you tried to guess which one I was in the old family photo.....I am the one on my mom's lap......

whimsical brainpan said...

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

One of twelve children!!! Somehow that impresses me much more than the skydiving or parsailing. Wow!

Akelamalu said...

Those are great pictures but I love the last one - such a lovely family portrait! :)

Martie said...

I'll be playing along in a day or two....been busy with little ones! Almost constantly!

Hugs

Cathy said...

OK Mary Anne but only (1) picture will that work? First, I am no good with a camera and second I HATE having pictures taken. But, i will do this for you. Just give me a day or so.

I think you are in the back row far left. Am I right? These are all great pictures.

Heart of Rachel said...

It's nice to learn more about you through this post. You're blessed with such a lovely family. My mom had 10 siblings. :)
