Liebster Award

Hello! Almost the weekend, we are planning to spend time with friends and a little staycation in Kansas City so make sure to follow along on instagram. It is going to be crazy fun, and I am bursting at the seams. I am currently trying to keep it a surprise from the husband but I do not know how much longer I can go

So one of my favorite bloggers Karen, nominated me for the Liebster Award! Honestly I only saw it once on a blog, and that has been recent. I didn’t start this blog particularly until September in 2013 so everything tends to be new to me though.

So the Liebster seems pretty cool, get to know the blogger, and maybe show you 10 new bloggers.  This is my interpretation anyways.haha!

Here’s the Liebster Award guidelines:

• Link back to the person who nominated you
• Answer the 10 Liebster questions given to you
• Pick 10 bloggers to be nominated for the award
• Create 10 questions for your nominees
• Go to their blogs and notify them of their nomination

Here were my questions from Karen:

1.) What’s your dream job?

I think I am still looking! I did love mental health, but emotionally it was too hard on me. I am currently looking for my dream job. I mean besides working on Main Street in Walt Disney World, baking goodies. That is my retirement plan  PS. the amounts of PUMPED that I took the above photo with my phone? I might have done a little dance. I didnt even edit it besides putting the font on it! *Dances on to next question*

2.) What’s your favorite type of workout and why?

I really love strength training, but not alone. I was a rower for Michigan State and strength training was something I excelled at. I could leg press over 400lbs on one leg, and I loved seeing my body grow stronger each session. I need to find someone to get into it down here in Missouri now. I am in a walking cast right now, so running is not the answer. I am day to day like that. 

3.) Name one random thing about you.

I am pretty random person overall. I mean that truly, I have ADD style/interests and try everything once. I will choose fruit flavored anything over chocolate. Fruit flavored ice cream, candy, gummies, etc. I just am not driven by chocolate at all. Hand over that Mango Hagaan Das Sorbet! Or! I had a tongue ring for my last semester of college..

4.) Is the glass half empty or half full?

Half Full, with sparkles and fairy dust. I am pretty positive, until I am not. It takes a lot to make me look on a the pessimistic side of the glass.

5.) Favorite travel destination?

AH! I love to travel, wherever that may be. I love airports, hotels, and seeing new cultures. I have been around Europe, and love Disney to pieces but—- Italy is my favorite. I spent a wonderful vacation with my parents and brother after graduating college and it was a dream come true. Venice, Rome, Florence, Assi, and more.

6.) If you could be a Disney character, which one would you be and why?

Cinderella. Ariel was always a tight 2nd growing up because I took swim classes and loved her too. Cinderella was my favorite literally because I loved the dress, the tiara, and the castle.

7.) Who is your biggest inspiration?

My Husband. He works so hard everyday for the USAF, working shifts that are long, change every 6 weeks, and just overall stressful job. He has deployed 2 times over the past two years, only being home for about 9 months between. I am inspired by his work ethic, commitment, and just ability to be amazing. He inspires me to be a better person.

8.) What is your favorite relaxing activity?

I enjoy reading a book in a bubble bath. I used  to only like showers but with a glass of wine, and a book- bubble bath is the perfect place.

9.) Name one goal you would like to accomplish in life.

This is such a loaded question! One?! My mind just started buzzing with ideas, but one that I have been focused on once I am not broken injured is to run a full marathon. I am looking at you runDisney!
