This week we are featuring the FABULOUS
Julie Carson
of
Greetings,
I'm Julie and it sure is nice to meet you.
Thank you so much for taking time out of your day
to read my ramblings and nonsense.
I hope my words are more than just noise
and as you click away, you have been encouraged,
humored or perhaps thought about trying something new.
Who am I?
A follower of Christ.
A wife to a fabulous man.
A mom to a house full of noise, chaos, pink and love.
A loyal friend.
A nerd.
I big puffy heart:
flip flops,
my flat iron,
Burt's Bees chapstick
coffee,
sugar,
driving alone,
Gap curvy jeans,
bleach,
rainy days,
sea otters,
English literature,
Apple,
Spray and Wash,
Toyota Siennas,
rabbit pellet ice
heart shaped rocks.
I have no puffy hearts for
Clowns.
Sharks.
Popsicle sticks.
Ketchup.
Bananas.
Food coloring.
Twilight.
Purple.
Selfishness.
In real life I am awkward and shy.
While the little ones sleep
I love to sit in silence at my sewing machine
and see how many bobbins I can empty.
But as soon as they wake up
I live for the sound of their noisy little voices.
Enough about me…
tell me about you.

I love the heart way to tell us about yourself… i think I will use that as a way to scrapbook my likes and dislikes… and Twilight will go on the ‘like’ side! haha
I loved reading about you, Julie and seeing your beautiful family, such sweet girls (you two make beautiful children). Isn’t it interesting how our shyness goes away at the keyboard. May God continue to bless you richly, HE is the BEST!!!! Now to visit your blog, I hope you will come by mine, too. Hugs in Christ.
