Liebster Award

Happy Weekend!!!  This post if kind of long overdue, my girl Sarah nominated me a while ago and I just kept putting it off.  Then Abby gave me another nomination and I figured I should get on the bandwagon and join the fun.  So first off thank you girls for the nomination!!

1. Write 11 random facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 11 questions given by the person who nominated you.
3. Create 11 new questions.
4. Nominate 11 bloggers and mention them in your post.
5. Thank the person that nominated you and tell the people you’ve nominated.

11 Random Facts About Myself:

1. I used to hate chocolate.  When I was younger I would pick the chocolate chips out of cookies.. Now, I love chocolate and eat it once a day.
2. Most of the time I prefer salty over sweet.  I’d rather have a bag of potato chips than a cookie for dessert.
3. Even though I prefer salty over sweets most of the time, cupcakes are still a major weakness- I prefer vanilla with vanilla frosting
4. I’ve already decided NOT to have a wedding cake, because I’m terrified of Jimmy smashing cake in my face.  So, easy fix no cake, no feeding ceremony thing, no cake in my face!
5. I enjoyed “planning” my wedding sooo much more before I actually had to start doing it for real… Can’t I just pin wedding things and it somehow magically all comes together on its own?
6. I hate making decisions- It doesn’t even matter the situation- even when planning this wedding, I interview one vendor then move on because I  hate having to decide on things
7. I love taking bubble baths and take one almost every night after work, sometimes twice in one night
8. When I was younger all of my friends got their belly buttons pierced, I felt the need to be different and got my eyebrow pierced.  It fell out and now I have a scar on my eyebrow
9. I absolutely HATE unloading the dishwasher.  I’d actually rather hand wash all of my dished before having to unload an entire dishwasher just to put the dirty dishes in
10. Speaking of unloading the dishwasher, I’ve now been waiting for Jimmy to unload it for two full days.  I’ve had to hand wash all of my dishes and it’s starting to annoy me
11. I don’t feel like I have any real talents, and I think it’s part to do with my ADD with hobbies- I get really into something just long enough to where I’m about to progress, then find something new that I love and move on.  Kind of the reason I’m only slightly good at rock climbing, kayaking, snowboarding, running, gymnastics… Although this summer I plan to be a professional flying trapeze artist.  I swear I will stick with this one!

Sarah’s Questions:

1. What was your favorite television show growing up? What is it now?

I was obsessed with Full House when I was really little and then Party of Five was my favorite show when I was a little older.  Now a days I don’t watch too much TV, but I still LOVE Friends and How I Met Your Mother

3. What movie could you watch over and over?  I used to love Almost Famous and would watch it all the time.  There isn’t really one movie that I watch over and over again nowadays, so we’ll just stick with that answer
