it was an honour just to be nominated

haha, just kidding. I was awarded my first blogger award from the lovely Gracie!

So I must say 7 things about myself and pass it on to 7 other lovely ladies.

1. My parents eloped to get married
2. I drink a glass of skim milk with one tablespoon of ovaltine before bed time, every night.
   
3. My name is the combination of my parents names: Jo (from Jose) Zen (from Zenaida) Jo+Zen=Jozen
4. I have known my husband since we were 14 years old, we started to date at 17, got engaged at 23 and married at 25
5. I was in labour with my first baby for 36 hours
6. I was in labour the entire duration of my 27th birthday
7. I don't go a day without talking to my mom or either of my 2 sisters

Now I pass this lovely award onto these lovely ladies:

Alely

Sandy

Elizabeth

Sharon

Flora

Leslie

Lita

Thank goodness I won because I haven't had time to practice my ''you-beat-me-but-I-am-a gracious-loser-face''.

Thanks Gracie!

On another note, it's my cousin's 18th birthday tomorrow. It's a pretty big deal in my culture...we celebrate with a big birthday party called a cotillion. It's kind of a mini wedding (minus the groom!).

My aunt asked me to be the MC. I hate public speaking! Actually, I just don't hate it, I am terrified by it, please wish me luck!

I will be back Monday with some photos.

Have a great weekend everyone!
