Styleaward

Thanks Wendy
weebeestampin4fun

Upon receiving this award blogger is requested to list eight things describing oneself.  So here goes...
   (1)  I'm Mom to one daughter and two sons.
   (2)  Grandma to two girls and two boys.
   (3) Great-grandma to four boys and three girls.
   (4)  As you can see by my blog I am new to blogging and techie challenged...just blundering along
          and learning as I go.
          Some of you have wonderful colorful blogs...I'm envious!!! 
          But my love of cardmaking and crafts drives me onward.
   (5)  Enjoy reading mysteries and listening to classic rock.
   (6)  Live in a great area of PA... Gettysburg Battlefield is to the west.  Lancaster county
         ( land of the amish, all sorts of crafts, great PA Dutch food) to the east. 
         Have to mention TMI to the north - not so good.
   (7)  I am so fascinated with those beautiful tiny creatures, the hummingbirds.  They are amazing!!
         They entertain in our area from May 'til middle of Sept.  Alas, we have only one species -
         Ruby-Throated hummer!
   (8)  To end...my grandparents dated by horse and buggy...I grew up in the industrial era and am
          now living in the information age...what amazing transitions.
