The Friday Five Faves Edition - Vol. 1

This blogging world is so fun. It's like a social mixer that I've been missing out on for at least the last year. I have to give a proper shout out to my dear friend Jamie. She started me on this trend and I'm happy to report I'm riding that blogging train like Cole Trickle road that track.


Pretty soon everyone will be posting comments like "let me out of the car Cole, let me out of the car."

They won't be able to handle this kind of action.

Onto the topic at hand. I met Dena, a fellow blogger and more importantly fellow scraper. Not the boxing kind, the paper and picture kind. She's fabulous. If you haven't checked out her blog, you need to!

Every Friday she posts a Five Faves list of the week. She asked that I post one too. Well if you can call being called "young lady" asking. It was more of a challenge really. Since I don't back down from a challenge (which I learned from Cole Trickle), here is my Five Faves.

Five Fave Blogs that I read religiously:

1) Dena Coe - she is a talented scrapbooker and talked me off a scrapbooking cliff recently. Plus she gives previews of products and papers. If you're a scrapbooker you know you can never have enough paper! Dena is an inspiration to scrapbookers. You will want to go home and whip out your pictures and supplies after seeing her creations.

2) Angie Smith - she is the wife of Todd Smith, member of Selah. Her blog is dedicated to her daughter Audrey Caroline, who is awaiting her and Todd (and her sisters) in Heaven. Angie is a very talented writer and I promise you will be moved by her posts. I must warn, bring Kleenex.

3) Big Mama - she lives in Texas with her husband and daughter. She is a child of the 80's (a woman after my own heart) and an Aggie. You will love her wit and insight. Plus she's got her hand on the pulse of women's fashion. That's a friend everyone should have.



4) Jody Ferlaak - She is mother of 5 (one in Heaven waiting and one on the way). God has taken her family on a journey no one could've imagined. She writes with hope, wit and honesty (her blog is titled Nitty.Gritty.)



5) April James Art - April James is an artist out of Nashville. I've seen several pieces of her art. I will own one piece after this weekend! To say I'm excited would be an understatement. If I were to describe her as talented, I wouldn't be doing her justice. She has a God-given gift. What's even better, she uses it to glorify God.

I know I'll have more blogs to mention after I spend more time in the blogging world, but this is a good start to the list.
