The Liebster Award

Thanks to my friend Sara for nominating me for the Liebster award. Sara is a high school friend. We rocked our 4 x 8 team in track.

For those of you who have never heard of the Liebster Award, it’s a fun way for small bloggers to give recognition to other small bloggers (with 200 followers or less) for the contributions they make to the blogosphere.
Here are the rules:
1) Thank the Liebster Blog presenter who nominated you and link back to their blog.
2) Post 11 facts about yourself, answering the 11 questions you were asked and create 11 questions for your nominees.
3) Nominate 11 blogs who you feel deserve to be noticed and leave a comment on their blog letting them know they have been chosen.
4) Display the Liebster Award logo.
5) No tag backs meaning you can’t just re nominate the person who nominated you.

1.) What is your favorite type of shoe?
I love super comfortable soft shoes (basically slippers), but whenever I put on a pair of heals I feel pretty amazing:) 

2.)What is one goal you have for yourself in the next 5 years?
I would like to teach some type of class at the gym, probably like boot camp. I want to coach track and cross country at a high school too. I will probably just choose one to start with. I just want to be home before and after school.

3.) Which type of candy is your favorite?
I pretty much love all candy, but Dove milk chocolate is my favorite. (milk chocolate, not dark chocolate. Drew won't make that mistake again:) 

4.) What is your favorite season?
Fall. I am SO excited to see what fall is like in Saint Louis, I have heard it's pretty great.

5.) What is your least favorite chore?
Laundry. I really like things clean. I am constantly cleaning, but I can let a load of laundry sit for days. I wish I could just put it away right away, but I guess I would rather iron or go with a wrinkled shirt than put it away immediately. (Let's be honest, I hardly iron, wrinkled isn't so bad)

6.) Why did you start blogging?
I'm not very good about journaling or scrapbooking, and I want to have something for my family and future generations to have. I have my blog made into a book from blurb.com so we can have it around to look at.

7.) What 3 words describe you best?
I am terrible about answering this question. I guess active, easy-going, some might call me funny.

8.) If you had an entire day to yourself, what would you do?
Oh man, that really sounds amazing. And also, if I had unlimited funds right? Well, I would sleep in, go to the gym or on a hike or a run, then take as long of a shower as I wanted. Then I would go shopping, and after that I would come home and read a book or magazine and take a nap. Then of course have food delivered to me, and probably watch a chick flick or a good show. (It's mostly just the little things, like not feeling rushed that sounds so great)

9.) What did you want to be when you were little?
I had really big dreams. All I can remember is wanting to be a waitress. I had my own pad of paper for taking orders and everything.

10,) What is your favorite TV show?
Modern Family

11.) What is an interesting fact about you
I guess I'm not that interesting since I can't think of anything. I really love cooking. But since I've had kids and barely have time my meals aren't all that spectacular. Or maybe it's because I can't stand watching my kids throw their food on the floor or just simply not eat it after spending so much time making it. Hopefully when they are older they will appreciate it right?

Here are my questions:
1.) What is something quirky about you?
2.) Where is your favorite place to shop?
3.) Where would your ideal place to live be?
4.) What is a pet peeve of yours?
5.) What's the first thing you want to do during the kids nap time or just when you have time to yourself?
6.) What junk food makes you the happiest?
7.) If you could choose any career (besides motherhood) what would it be?
8.) Who inspires you?
9.) What's your favorite movie?
10.) What are you best at?
11.) Where do you see yourself in 10 years?


People I tag:
