This is my first blog award nomination, how fun! I received The Liebster Blog Award nomination from my friend and Tri Chi sister Katherine of Love is in the Hair. What is the Liebster Blog Award? Liebster is a German word meaning dearest, and the award is given to up-and-coming bloggers with less than 200 followers who deserve some recognition and support to keep on blogging! Thank you for this nomination Katherine!
Here are the rules should you choose to accept:
- List 11 facts about yourself.
- Answer the 11 questions given to you.
- Create 11 new questions for the bloggers you nominate for the award.
- Choose 5 bloggers with 200 or less followers to nominate.
- Go to each bloggers page and let them know about the award.
- Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog.
Eleven facts about me:
1. I'm a graphic designer for a ministry.
2. I'm a Christ-Follower.
3. I love to shop online, maybe a little too much!
4. Photography is a big hobby of mine, but when people ask me to take pictures for them I freak out.
5. I'm obsessed with all things HGTV. The home renovation shows, House Hunters...
6. I have 3 Real Estate apps on my phone that I look at every night. Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com. I find it relaxing to look at homes for sale (and to see how people decorate). I get it from my dad, he does that kind of stuff for a living (real estate, not decorating ha!)
7. It took me 5.5 years to graduate college. Three years in community college (trying to figure out what I wanted to do) and 2.5 years at Ouachita Baptist University.
8. I met my husband at Ouachita, making those long 3 years in community college worth it!
9. I only drink water. No lemon, sometimes no ice. On occasions I will have a root beer, but it's not often.
10. I've lived with a cat since I was 9 years old, despite me being allergic to cats.
11. I used to want all girls, but now I would love for Caleb to have a little brother (in the far future!) because i've discovered how much fun and sweet boys are!
Katherine's questions:
Q: What do you want for Christmas?
A: Unrealistically, I want a Canon 7D camera. Realistically, new clothes!
Q: Who do you think will win the presidential election?
A: Good question! I think it's going to be really really close, but my hope is that Romney will ultimately win.
Q: How did you choose your pet or child's name?
A: Our first "child" is our cat Jade. I saw that name for another cat at Petsmart and wanted our cat to have that name, just because I liked the sound of it and it was kind of unique. Matt and I have had 1 girl name and 1 boy name picked out since we got married. Caleb was the boy's name, but we surprisingly didn't settle on it that easily ha! Caleb was almost an Aiden or Wyatt. I'm so glad we kept our first choice, he is definitely a Caleb!
Q: What food do you most look forward to eating on Thanksgiving?
A: broccoli, rice and cheese casserole (and rolls)
Q: What's your greatest accomplishment?
A: hmm...I guess I would say having my ad designs printed in newspapers and magazines. It's only happened twice but it's exciting to me.
Q: Where are you dreaming of taking your next vacation?
A: We haven't been to the beach in a while, so I dream of going to Wrightsville Beach, NC!
