I just love blog parties! They are a fun way to "meet" other bloggers, and possibly win some awesome prizes!! Lynnette @ Dancing Barefoot on Weathered Ground is hosting the "Thoughts of Spring Blog Party" this week. To all of you hopping over from her site, WELCOME!
My name is Bethany, and this blog is an attempt to share my life experiences, the MANY lessons that God is teaching me along the way, and to brag (just a little) on my three amazing blessings, ages two and under. I have been married to my husband for three and a half years, and love him more than any person on this earth. He has been serving in different areas of ministry since we got married, and we have learned a LOT in that short time. Ministry is not easy, but we are confident of God's call. I stay at home with the babies, and am learning each and everyday the definition of love and patience. :)
Just a few more random facts about me (because I know you're dying to know...):
How would people describe your personality? (If they could only use ONE word.) Are they right? My husband said Faithfulness. I hope he's right. :)
What is your comfort food/drink? Anything chocolate, and a cherry coke.
Do you have a strong desire to do something you’ve never done? What is it? Well, right now I have a strong desire to learn how to sew, but we'll see how it goes! :)
Movies: Action, Drama, Romantic Comedy, Documentary, Comedy? What are your favorite genres? There are some great action movies that I love, but if I have a choice, I almost always prefer something light-hearted and funny.
Books: Fiction, Non-Fiction, Romance, Biographies, True Stories, Self-Help, Devotional/Study? What are your favorite types of reading material? When I have time to read, I love historical fiction!
Name one weakness of yours (confession is good for the soul). Trying to please everyone.
If you could live anywhere at all (and take all your loved ones with you), where would you go? I would like to be back on the east coast, or with my friends in Nicaragua. :)
Strange Talent? Can you juggle basketballs, put your legs behind your head or some perform some other strange feat? I really have no crazy, hidden talents. I wish I did, I would be much more interesting! Haha!
What’s something you consider yourself to be good at? (Don’t worry, it’s not bragging, it’s acknowledging a God given gift). Well, I guess I'm pretty good at math.
When you leave a social gathering, do you wish: You would have talked more or You would have talked less? Talked more. Always.
If money wasn’t a factor, what stores would you shop in? I would probably still bargain shop at Target.
What movie or book character can you most relate to? The main character from The Measure of a Lady by DeeAnne Gist.
Please leave a comment and let me know you stopped by, I'd love to "meet" you! :)
So very nice to meet you! You have a lovely family!

ReplyDeleteSo glad you joined the party! Chocolate and Cherry Coke are two things I love as well. And even if I did win millions, Target would still be a place I shop at weekly. Have a wonderful day.
