The lovely Mary-Keith tagged me for a Liebster award, and I am more than happy to oblige 🙂
You can find my previous Liebster award post here.
First — The Rules:
1. Post 11 random facts about yourself.
2. Answer 11 questions asked by the person who nominated you, and create 11 questions for your nominees to answer, too.
3. Nominate bloggers (with less than 200 followers) to do the same.
4. Let the bloggers know you have nominated know they have been nominated.
11 facts about me:::
1 // I am a chapstick fiend. I must have one at arms reach in all times. If not, I feel like I’m going to die from chapped lips. That is not an exaggeration.
2 // I don’t usually jump into popular books or book series. I just barely read The Fault in Our Stars, and I haven’t even started Divergent yet. This has to do with the hype that surrounds them, and also that it’s harder to get them from the library when they’re so popular 🙂
3 // My favorite holidays are tied between Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter.
4 // Right now I’m wearing a life guard hoodie from my days of employment at Seven Peaks. I was never a life guard and I hate the water, so people get confused when they see me wearing it.
5 // I always look up the menu before I try out a new restaurant. Is this strange? I have to know what’s on the menu and what I would like… And if there are prices online it’s a bonus, because I know approximately how much I’ll be spending!
6 // If I could pick the gender, order, and number of kids we’re going to have it would be boy, girl, boy, twin girls. Strange? Yes. And I may or may not have them all named…
7 // I’ve been to England 4 times.
8 // Last winter when I was pregnant I lived in my fleece lined maternity leggings.
9 // I have a really big obsession with books and reading and I fear I will never be able to read all the books I want. It’s scary.
10 // I’ve been off Dr. Pepper for 20 months. ALMOST 2 YEARS.
11 // This was really really hard to do.
My answers to Mary-Keith’s questions:::
Do you like Christmas music?
I do like Christmas music! But… Only after Thanksgiving 🙂
Do you like to cook?
This is a loaded question… Haha. I like to cook. I guess. Sometimes. If it’s easy. I don’t enjoy making a huge elaborate and hard meal. But I do like the satisfaction of making something home made and saying, “I made that”. I hate the cleaning up part though 🙂 I also really enjoy baking.
Do you watch Gilmore Girls?
I have been, yes! I am currently on season 2. I haven’t watched it before — other than the odd episode every once in a while. I might get shuned for this next phrase, but I don’t love it. But it’s not terrible, and it’s clean, so I’m still watching it. I’ll let you know what I think when I finish 🙂
What is your favorite hobby?
Reading. Reading, reading, reading. Followed by blogging and scrapbooking. And then baking.
What are 3 goals you have in the next 10 years?
Buy a house, become the wife and mother I want to be, grow in my relationship with Christ.
Buy a house, become the wife and mother I want to be, grow in my relationship with Christ.
Do you watch Reality TV?
Not really. It’s not something I’m into. Although Kyle and I will occasionally sit through an episode of The Bachelor or The Amazing Race or The Biggest Loser when we’re flipping through the channels.
How do you feel about your current job?
I love it 🙂 I’m a stay-at-home-mom, freelance writer, Thirty-One consultant, and blogger. It’s the best.
What is your most embarrassing moment?
Honestly… I don’t know! I don’t get embarrassed easily. Or I should say, I don’t stay embarrassed. So, it’s hard for me to remember a time I was! …. Oh, here’s on. One time in elementary school I went down a slide and it had a puddle at the bottom so I looked like I wet my pants. That was bad.
Any hidden talents?
I can lick my elbow. Is that a talent?
How do you feel about flying?
I love flying!
What did you want to be when you were little?
A teacher and a mommy.
