Fried Marble Winner

I did yet another random drawing (this time Eliza picked the winner out of my shirt).

And the winner is...Raquel Harrison!

She is basically a Brazilian princess.

With an adorable family.

And the cutest little boy!

She has online store called Tropikalia Bazaar with beautiful, affordable, bohemian clothing and jewelry.

Raquel's response to "Who is someone who has inspired you and why" was...

 "Both my grandmas are great examples of selfless service, charity, faith, and good cheer!"

Thank you to the other participants and their responses as well!

Jenae Williamson said, "My mother! It wasn't until I had my own daughter that I realized all the things she tried to instill in me are things that I hope to teach my daughter. She is such a great example to me and has taught me a lot and lessons learned I hope my daughter learns."

Angela Kelley said, "My husband, Zach, is an inspiration to me. He puts up with me and helps me through all of my hard days, by helping me know he loves me and that I need to turn to the Lord. He is always there for me, especially when I need it most. He is a hard worker and is always trying to make sure that I am happy! I love him and am so grateful to have him and others in my life who have also inspired me!"

Makayla Wilber's response was, "My mother for her extreme patience with all family members and endless love and her mother for being able to laugh and smile through life and all the trials that came her way."

And I loved what Jennifer Wilson said, "Spencer W. Kimball is someone who has inspired me, because even though he was a prophet of God, (and obviously if God loves you life is easy and you prosper in all things) he suffered serious trials in his earthly life. He had throat cancer back when everyone considered it a death sentence, and that alone would have been so frightening to me, and yet he never faltered.... and when they told him that he needed to have all of his vocal cords removed to get rid of the cancer, he refused, saying, "not all of them. I need to be able to speak to the people." and speak he did. His counsel, given with a voice barely over a whisper, was such a strength to me... and knowing that this beloved son of God, a prophet, chosen by the most high God, could have such trials makes it so when trials come to me, I still know that God loves me. His life inspires me to try harder every day to lengthen my stride and work hard to build a strong Latter Day Saint Family."

Someone inspiring to me, and who I will probably talk more about later, is Stephanie Nielson.
She was burned badly in a plane crash and was able to heal and move on to be who she wants to be most, a mother and wife in God. There is a beautiful spirit of hope about her that I cannot explain. She is truly an amazing woman.
