Blog Hop '09!




Hi! My name is Amanda. I love this idea of a Blog Hop! I would sure love to be at BlogHer so this is a nice idea for those of us who can't go. Thanks to Robin from Pensieve and Musings of a Housewife for starting this!

I'll tell you a bit about myself. I'm a 30 year old stay at home mom in Tennessee. I've been married to my husband, Mike for 10 years. We have three sweet children. Princess is 9, Rocket Boy is 6 and Monkey is 4.

I love the Lord and want to grow closer to Him and for Him to guide me in all I do. Cooking is a big love of mine as well as my family and friends.

I haven't been blogging for long but I am really loving it! Please come back and see me again! Thanks!

God bless,
Amanda

My husband and I honeymooned in Tennessee in 1998. We were there Feb 09 again for Blissdom and a family vacation. We love Tennessee; it's a beautiful state.
Have a great weekend!

Howdy! I'm in TN too - near Nashville. I'm not a native so I'm still adjust to life in the south but I've met some wonderful bloggers (in real life) here in Nashville.
