A Bittersweet Award Post

This is a bittersweet post for me.  I have been awarded the Liebster award again by 3 lovely ladies.  As I have stated the previous times I love getting the award and I think it is a great way for "y'all" to get to know me.  Now it is bittersweet because this will most likely be the last time I post on this award but only because since their nominations I have reached to 200 followers friends mark.  I want to also thank all my friends for being awesome and welcome my new friends too {you are awesome as well}.

So anyways.... These THREE lovely ladies have honored me with this award : Chelsea, Courtney, and Jamie!!  Thank you again for the award.  I truly appreciate it and love answering your questions.  Now if you are reading this and do not know these ladies, well I highly recommend you check them out as well :)

So are you ready for 11 more Random things about me?

1. I am still scared of the dark (thank goodness for my hubby to keep me safe, lol)
2.  I have this thing for tractors...yes I said tractors ...especially when my hubby is on it..{ok, so maybe 
that is TMI???!!!  Sorry }
3.  I am a procrastinator. 
4.  I get excited very easily :)
5. I love music even though I cannot sing :) and Christian and country are my favorite but I enjoy all types of must from bluegrass to rock

9. I am terrified of storms.
10. While Pink is my favorite color I tend to accent the house with reds.
11. I tend to over think everything.



1. If you could be any animal what would you be?  I would a dog (ha, kinda funny from the girl named "Cat") I picked a dog because they are always loyal, love attention and want to be by your side all the time.  They are a real companion. 
2. What was your first job?  Well I worked at an after-school program for a few weeks when I was in high school until it interfered with my dance classes/competition team etc. HA But my first job I would say would be when I was a hair stylist and worked in a salon. 
3. What is your favorite childhood memory?  I think I answered this one before??  I have trouble pinpointing just one..but this time  I am going to say visiting France.
4. If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?  I would have to say my self esteem/my looks {i guess they go hand in hand}
5. What is your dream car?  Uh, lets see either a Shelby Mustang,  a jacked up truck (bet you did't see that one coming...but I have always wanted one..ha), or an Aston Martin. I could probably keep going ha but for now I don't care as long as it is paid for!!  I hope to never go in debt over a car again!
6.  What is the best stress reliever for you?  listening to music
7.  What is the bravest thing you have ever done?  Does giving birth count?  If not how about traveling to Europe alone :)  ok technically only the flying parts were alone, then I met my "french sister/bff" once I was there..but still!
8.  What is you best quality?  I am very caring and love helping others.
9. Are you a spontaneous person or scheduled?  Well that depends I can be both.  But I will say if I do have something scheduled I like to keep it that way and if something happens I can freak out ha.  BUt on the other hand I enjoy doing things spontaneous as well!
10. If you could be on a TV show, which one would it be?  I am pretty sure not any on TV today!  OK well maybe extreme makeover ??  IDK

1.Why did you start blogging?  I know I have probably answered this but really I just wanted to have that personal documentation of my "story."  I hoped to be inspired as well as encourage others myself.
2.  What is your favorite & least favorite about the city you live in?  Well I love it is a small town and it is pretty "country" but on the other hand we do not have the best economy/job market {who does} and we don't have any really good restaurants.
3. Would you ever consider living in a different country? if so where?  Well I had always said I was going to live in Europe but that didnt happen.  But yes I would if my family ever needed to relocate or if God ever called us to move etc I would hope I would be able to maintain full faith and go for it! 
4. Do you have any hidden talents?  I have no clue??  I guess they are hidden well, huh! ;)

6. What is your favorite post on your own blog? My testimony
7. Finish the sentence..if you want to spoil me rotten buy me... well right now I would say a nice camera.  Or how about all the things I pin on pinterest haha...but really just about anything! I get excited whenever I get anything!
8. Who can make you laugh the most and why?  My hubby...he has always made me laugh (even when I want to be mad at him), my son...he is a mess..the way he dances especially, and my daughter...you NEVER know what she is going to say!
9. What have you laughed at today?  Well that would be the hubby pointing out my "blondness"
10. Who would you want to play you in a movie about your life?  Reese Witherspoon
11. Who is the most interesting person you have ever met?  My moms dad.  He is in heaven now but he was such an amazing person!  He helped SOOO many people all over the world. Helped with the USSNC and was friends with JFK and Ronald Reagan.  This is just the beginning. In all honestly he would need his own post.

  2. I love decorating with red accents. Of course, I also have a few red appliances. Like my microwave. :) And crockpot--I agree with you, cooking in the crockpot is awesome!!
    And I hope I never have to get a car loan--I'm not too proud to drive an old car, that's for sure! My baby car is 17 years old and I hope to drive her for years to come!
