I am honored to have been awarded the Honest Scrap award by my friend and fellow Make Mine Pinker Dianne at Mama's pocketbook. To accept this award I must thank Dianne and link to her blog (which I have done, just click her name!) and list 10 honest things about myself along with a copy of the honest scrap image also award 7 other bloggers with the links.

1. I am a sucker for any vintage china with pretty pink roses.
2. In my head I am a chic city girl. In real life I live on a big piece of property with a barn, a dozen chickens and numerous other animals.
   
3. I get a serious rush from finding treasures at flea markets, tag sales, (trash on the side of the road), etc.
4. When the nurse told me my second baby was a boy I thought she and my husband conspired a big joke because I couldn't imagine being the mother of one boy, never mind two. I had always pictured myself as a mother to daughters. Of course, I love my boys to death.
5. I always have paint on my arms.
   
6. I have a hard time falling asleep because my brain is always going 90 miles an hour.
7. I keep a pad and pen next to my bed to keep reminder notes, often writing in the dark. Then the scribble has to be deciphered in the morning.
8. I love to decorate. My house is very shabby chic, floral and girly. Thankfully, my husband lets me indulge my creativity and doesn't care that our bedroom is pink.
9. I am a beer drinker, hold the glass. No wine or fancy drinks for this lady!
10. I am terrified of amusement park rides.

Now I get to tag seven ladies with this fun award. (And just now, 110 posts and a year later, I figured out how to link their names!)

2. Lynette - Misty Moonlight Creations
3. Teresa - Eclectic Pink Rose
   
4. Nancy - Couer d'Alene
