Part of accepting this award is answering the questions asked by us from the Nominator. So with out further ado….

Nominator questions and my answers:

1.What made you start your blog?

It started as a fun way to write about my kids and started growing from there.

2. What’s your most favorite post you’ve written?

For sure The #beautifulontheinside Challenge. It was truly written from the heart wanting all woman to know that they are beautiful regardless of what society says they look like on the outside.

3. What are your top 3 hobbies?

I enjoy spending time writing for my BLOG, spending time with my kids and family, and garage sales!

4. If you were to name one person as your favorite person, who would they be AND WHY?

My Mother! She is so wise and I learned over time, she always KNEW! Perhaps the inspiration of my Blog for real! (Did you ask that question..lol)

5. What’s your favorite color?

Aqua for sure!

6. Do you believe in love at first sight?

No, lust at first sight, sure, but love; no. True love only can exist between 2 people who both know and love Jesus first and equally, then each other. Read the The Love Dare if you need help with that one.

7. If you were to eat one food item for the rest of your life, what would that be?

Well food group would be chocolate but if I had to pick one food item….hmmm…that is tough…Dr. Pepper? I guess that’s a drink…let’s see… I pick, PB&J. Protein and Fruit, I’d live. LOL

8. Who did you look up to growing up, and why?

I was always a big fan of Oprah growing up. She was really a pioneer back in the 90’s before the internet and social media. We didn’t have all that when I was growing up and she was for sure the only woman talk show host and advocate on back in the day!

9. What’s your biggest wish in life?

My only wish in life is actually a prayer, I don’t wish really. I rely on faith to get me by. I pray that my girls grow up happy and healthy. I could really elaborate on that but happy and healthy is the just of it.

10. What are you most proud of in your life?

I am most proud of thus far: My awesome marriage (it takes work), my 2 beautiful daughters, my Graduate degree.

11. What’s been your favorite vacation destination so far?

Going to Orlando and doing Disney last year with my family and parents was Awesome! We went out to the beach also while we were there and had a great vacation!
