Pay it forward!

I'm participating in a Pay It Forward Exchange. I will send a small handmade gift to the first three people who leave a comment on my blog. The only thing you have to do in return is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog. Apparently this has been going on for over a year. I hope you comment so you can enjoy the fun too!

New kind of tag!

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty fun to see the responses.

If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. EVERYBODY PLAY!

I love you Daddy!

Today is the 14 year anniversary of my Dad's death. Instead of being sad I am celebrating his life today. Without him i would not exist. I am so grateful to have been his daughter and hope that I make him proud. You are the best daddy! I love you with all of my heart. I can not wait to see you again someday. Love your youngest daughter, Tina Marie Thorpe XOXOXO

I swear I am not copying Tammy's answers!

Your Ice Cream Personality:

You like to think of yourself as a fairly modest person. And it's true that you don't talk yourself up... but you're also pretty happy with who you are. You are incredibly cautious. You rather miss out on something than make a mistake. No one would ever call you wild... but they would call you responsible. You are a somewhat open minded person, but deep down you're fairly conservative. You don't like trying new things very much. And if you do find something new you like, you stick with it. You are a natural multitasker. You feel alive when you're doing more than one thing at a time. You are fun loving and sweet. You tend to enjoy joking around and teasing people.

The Ice Cream Personality Test

I BELONG IN ROME

You Belong in Rome

You're a big city soul with a small town heart Which is why you're attracted to the romance of Rome Strolling down picture perfect streets, cappuccino in hand And gorgeous Italian people - could life get any better?

What City Do You Belong In?

Tammy & I are way to much alike!

You Are Mulan!

Strong and spirited. You're no one's girly girl; actually you are very determined person with a strong sense of self. Never let go of that! The only thing that equals your sense of self is your family, but the traditions of society can always be bent to protect something or someone you love.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Big Change!

Hey everyone. I have not updated in a while so here you go. So as all of you know I am going to start a nursing program at the end of August. I recenlty went to my nursing orientation. It was a great experience and I got to meet everyone in my class for the next two years. The teachers are awesome and the program is going to be intense. So intense that I will not be able to work while in the program. So I am making a prayer request. We will probably struggle with me not making money anymore. What a change it will be. I have faith it will all work out but we could use all the prayers we can get. Thanks, Tina xoxoxo

MY HUSBAND IS THE BEST!

My husband is the best! He is just so considerate and constantly thinking of ways to make me happy. He cooks me dinner almost every single night and always keeps up with everything. I really did marry the perfect man. I love him so much. My life is so much better with him in it. He makes me a better person daily. I love you honey! You are the best!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After a long wait I finally received my letter of acceptance for the Colorado Mountain College Associates Degree Program in Glenwood Springs. I am so excited. I want to thank everyone who has been so supportive to me. I am so blessed to have this opportunity. I know this would not be possible without my lord and savior Jesus Christ. I am just grateful. Thanks to everyone.

Feeling Old!

Ok so as most of you know my niece Brianne is getting married this May. I just remember when she was born and looked like a porcelin doll. She had a full head of hair and the cutest little body. I can not beleive how fast time has flown by. She recently sent me a picture of her in her wedding dress and it brought tears to my eyes. I know I am still young but I feel so old. I wish I could make time stand still so i do not miss what is going on in all of my family members lives. I am so proud of Brianne and all that she has accomplished! What a great young woman she has turned out to be. I love you Brianne!!!!

About Brad & Tina

Finally we have a blog! I have been trying to create this for a while. Brad and I have been married for 4 months now. It really has been so much fun. We love being married. It has been a cold winter here so far. It has not been over 25 for a while. It hurts just to go out side sometimes. The snow has been great for riding and we have taken full advantage of the powder. We live right next to a new gondola so we can literally walk out our back door to get to the slopes. I just sent in my application for nursing school. I will be in suspense until the end of April. I hope I get in. Brad is working for Maximum Comfort Pool & Spa in sales. He is does a really good job. He will be starting to hunt soon since he just took his hunters safety class. He is really excited to start. I will leave that to him. I just could never kill an animal unless I had to. I work for Maximum also but at a different location than Brad. We are going on a honeymoon soon. We are leaving February 23rd through March 1st. We are going to Sarasota, FL. We have a little cottage right next to the beach. The beaches in Sarasota are perfect! The sand never gets hot so you can walk barefoot all day.
