I am delighted to receive the Mystery Blogger Award for This Family Blog! This is the second award I’ve been honored with since starting a blog in fall and it feels amazing to be honored again.
The first word of thanks needs to go to Cindi of Journey With Healthy Me for it is she that nominated me. Her goal is to show people we can be healthy and live a fun, full life, at any age. She has overcome multiple health issues just by changing her diet. (Something we all should probably do but I have zero will power so there’s that) Her journey is very interesting and I hope you’ll check her out!
What is this Award
The Mystery Blogger Award, created by Okoto Enigma, brings attention and recognition to blogs that may not otherwise be discovered. According to Enigma, the Mystery Blogger Award is an award for amazing bloggers with ingenious posts. Their blogs not only captivate, they inspire and motivate. They are among the best out there and they deserve every recognition. This award is also for bloggers who find fun and inspiration in blogging and do so with love and passion. I would like to think this description captures This Family Blog‘s essence!

My Travel Life Story
My Answers to Cindi’s Questions
How did you come up with the name for your blog? When I started the blog I wasn’t sure what it would be exactly but I knew what the heart of it was and it was my family. ThisFamily.com was taken so ThisFamilyBlog.com it was!
What do you love most about blogging? My favorite part of blogging is the messages I get where people learn something new or are inspired to travel or explore. I like to see inspiration in action.

Five years down the road, what accomplishment do you hope to celebrate? In five years I hope to celebrate this blog not only as a successful business but as a means to donate charitably to causes. I also would like to celebrate losing 10 pounds but I really hope it doesn’t take 5 years to do that.
What’s your favorite comfort food? Does coffee count? NO? Boo. OK well mac and cheese, bacon, pop corn, mashed potatoes… (the 10 pounds may actually take 5 years)
