I have been awarded the Kreativ Blogger Award by Marsha Robinett www.marsharobinett.com/, a watercolorist and pencil artist of the highest caliber. Now it is my turn to pass it on, but first I am supposed to write seven things about myself.

1. I love Jack Russell terriers and have had several over the years. Currently, I have a mother and daughter pair. They are very layed back Jack Russells with very sweet dispositions.
2. My husband, Ken, and I have been married 28+ years and truly enjoy each other's company. He is a nature photographer and one of our favorite things to do is travel around taking photographs of birds and animals.
3. I have three children and eight grandchildren.
4. I have a passion for cowboys and horses but have never lived or worked on a ranch. I have done some horseback riding, but am far from being a horse woman. I just love them.
5. I am a freelance writer as well as artist. I write an art column and feature articles for my local paper and write feature articles for a local magazine. I'm writing a historical fiction novel too.
6. My great, great grandfather was one of the original wild west Texas Rangers. Cool, huh.
7. I love ice cream and popcorn, but not in the same bowl.

I am passing the Kreativ Blogger Award on to:
WR Jones http://onpainting.wordpress.com/. Bill is not only an exquisite painter, but he's funny too. His blogs are hilarious most of the time, but his paintings and drawings are seriously divine.
