Did I ever mention that I'm Mormon?

Well there's one way to just break into a topic! Yup - I'm a blogger......and I'm a Mormon. That may or may not be news to you. Maybe you've wondered but never asked, maybe it was just obvious to you or maybe you never gave it any thought at all! :)

There has been a lot of talk this year about Mormons with the upcoming election. There's been everyone's take on the good, the bad and the ugly - However the media or individuals want to portray it. I've been a member my whole life and it's a huge part of who I am today, how I live, conduct myself and raise my family.

In an effort to stand true to who we are and shed some light on the positive side of the LDS church, Mariel of  Or so she says  gathered a group of Mormon women bloggers together to share why they are Mormon.
There are 32 ladies who jumped to be part of it and have shared their testimony or feelings and Mariel put them all together in a packet. Maybe you know some of these ladies or already read their blogs too!

Here's who participated:

Myself, of course. Becky ~ The Crafting Chicks Camille ~ Six Sisters Stuff Leigh Anne ~ Your Homebased Mom Tausha ~ Sassy Style Redesign Mariel ~ One She Two She Reachel ~ Cardigan Empire Mandy ~ Sugar Bee Crafts Caroline ~ Armelle Blog Carrian ~ Sweet Basil Melissa ~ 320 Sycamore Shawn ~ I Wash...You Dry Becky ~ Babes in Hairland Shandra ~ Deals to Meals Kristyn ~ Lil' Luna Nikkala ~ The Crafting Chicks Krista ~ Budget Gourmet Mom Kelli ~ Lolly Jane Stephanie ~ Somewhat Simple Mel ~ Mel's Kitchen Cafe Becky ~ UCreate Arianne ~ Still Parenting Emily ~ Is This Really My Life?
