Day 1 of the 30 Day Blog Challenge!

Day 1 - Introduce, recent picture, 15 interesting facts...

I'm Bethany, 40 years old (but much younger in my own mind!) married for 18 years to my husband, Dwayne.  We have one sweet little girl, Gracyn who just turned 6!  I'm a stay at home Mom, homeschooling Gracyn which I completely love!  I am a Christian and so thankful for all the blessings God has given to me!


Fact #1:  My hubby and I tried for 12 years before I finally became pregnant with Gracyn!  She is for sure a miracle child!

Fact #2:  I was diagnosed with Diabetes about 10 years ago... it's a bit annoying.

Fact #3:  I am the baby in my family, 3 older brothers and 3 older sisters.

Fact #4:  I really enjoy chopping onions.

Fact #5:  I truly am my mom's baby... I can not handle being away from her.  So it's a good thing we live in their basement!

Fact #6:  My hubby, who is a carpenter, built a basement apartment at my parents house so that we can help them as they grow older.  However they do as much helping as we do!!!

Fact #7:  We attend a non-denominational church which simply teaches the word of God.  It is refreshing and we are as close to our church family as our blood family!

Fact #8:  I have to sleep with a fan running.  I like the noise and the air flow!

Fact #9:  I only get about 4 or 5 hours of sleep per night.  And yes, I am tired.  Most days I try to take a short nap.

Fact #10:  The dishes must be stacked neatly and the sink scrubbed clean before I can even consider doing the dishes!  (I am slightly anal retentive.)

Fact #11:  I wish there was a better term for being anal retentive.

Fact #12:  I love old things... old houses, old books... that sort of thing.

Fact #13:  I enjoy songwriting and singing.  This past summer I wrote 4 children's songs for our Vacation Bible School.  That was so much fun!

Fact #14:  My guilty pleasure is reality tv.

Fact #15:  My middle name is Lynn.

Yay!  I'm done... goodnight!

P.S.  Thank you Melissa for suggesting this!  :o)
