Liebster Award

What is a Liebster Award you ask? Well this is an award given to up and coming bloggers with less than 200 followers.. its another way to get your name out there and such. I was nominated by my fellow blogger, Lisa, at Simple Kind of Wonderful. She is a hoot!! Check her out. We went to high school together and also worked together at Snyder Drug. AKA most boring but entertaining place to work at.

Part of this nomination is that I have to answer questions about myself. I ams suppose to nominate 11 more people but I have to be honest. I don't know that many people who blog! Lisa is the only friend I got who blogs. I am pretty sad... So put the word out there folks!!

If you are new here, Welcome! If you are not new, then you dont get a welcome. Your Welcome has been over stayed...

Well here are the burning questions I must answer ever so honestly. 

What is your dream vacation?
Well... Since I never took a honeymoon, and im a mother of toddler, ANYWHERE without Toy Story and an Xbox is a vacation. BUT if someone twisted my arm to leave my house, than I would like to take one of those all-inclusive vacations to the bahahamas. Not only do they have the coolest accents that just put you in a good mood, the weather and beaches are to die for. Not litereally, otherwise you wouldnt be able to enjoy the beach....

What is your biggest pet peeve?
I have to admit, alot irritates the hell out of me. But maybe thats the hormones? Or lack of sleep? Did I mention I have a toddler? I have to say lately my biggest pet peeve is a tie between when my husband says the word "assume" (long story), and when wives where their husbands rank... ugh irritating.

What is my five year plan?
Man I feel like im in a business meeting... or high school counseling session... Hmm.. In five years I plan on being In Colorado Springs buying my first home, settled into a nice career or starting my nursing career, and Yes folks, have had another baby. I live an exciting life- its ok to be jealous.

What makes me feel like a kid again?
Puppy chow... I dont know why cause I didnt eat it as a kid. Any music from the 90s since my mother listened to it ALL the time. And just being in my original home town, Battle Lake. There are so many memories there. I grew up on my grandmas resort- Old Town Resort. As a kid I was ALWAYS outside getting burnt. Us gingers dont get the joy of a nice golden tan. We get pain, blisters, and pealing skin. Thanks genetics. I was no Little Mermaid either. Though I thought I could swim like a mermaid of the ocean- I COULD NOT.

What is my favorite movie?
Id like to be classy and say "Breakfast at Tiffanys" but no.... I dont think I have a favorite movie. But my guilty pleasures of TV are Keeping Up With the Kardashians (Scott makes that show and Khloe really could be related to me) and Duck Dynasty. Even though Im SO a yuppy, Id LOVE to hang out with them for a day. However! The show and I can watch over and over again and it NEVER gets old is... Drum roll................ F.R.I.E.N.D.S...... I can quote anyone under the bus. If we played at trivia, you all would lose. And Jennifer Aniston is my girl crush. Most beautiful woman.

What is my jam? 
Haha. This made me laugh... cause I thought of my friend Lisa... She would use this word, Jam. And sadly the first thing that popped in my mind was, Strawberry. Not that kind of Jam, Dani. My favorite song currently is between Hell on Heels by Pistol Annies and that Scream and Shout by Will.I.Am and Brittney Spears- as much as I dont want to admit that. When I work out I listen to Pitbull and Marylin Manson. They mix so well. But I listen to just about everything. From Celtic, to 90s, to Marylin Manson, to Miranda Lambert. What does Sexy Beast listen to? Avenged Sevenfold... Avenged Sevenfold and Avenged Sevenfold. He is mildly obsessed. He suggested to me when I was in labor that we should listen to them cause its calming. I about punched him in the face. I already had his balls ripped out in my hands. If you havent heard of them, Youtube them and tell me if thats something you want to listen to when you have something the size of a watermelon coming out 10cm. Let that picture settle in your head for bit

What is my current ringtone?
Ok seriously, you are all going to think im so lame haha. But its a good old fashion telephone ring. Yes, I have an IPhone and its a shame..... BUT on my old phone it was Some Nights and Everybody Talks. So hey I can be cool! When my husband calls its a dog barking.. and when he texts its a cat call whistle. When my mother calls its a nuclear plan alarm system........... enough said.

What inspired me to write a blog?
Well I have been told a time or two that I have alot to say. I do... you'd think my family has Kardashian jeans genes... yes I kept that word crossed out 'cause I REALLY wrote that. Iv joked plenty of times that our family should have a show. My mother has 7 brothers and sisters and everyone one has completely different personalities. Needless to say it makes for an awesome family reunion. I wanted to blog about my life and the crazy things that happen in life. I got married at 20 (husband was 18- let that soak in), got pregnant after a month of being married with twins but lost one of the babies. And so much more... I love reading about others journeys so maybe someone would benefit from what I have to say? That could be getting ahead of myself.

What is my favorite memory?
Wow thats a tough one. Of course getting married was the first step in this great life I have... And without my husband I wouldnt have all the things I have. I like to think Im the wind in his back and not the spit in his face though... Can you guess what thats from? My favorite memory before Sexy Beast would be going to a concert with my best friend, Mandy. She just gets me. I guess spending my 18 birthday with her tops that. We got matching tattoos :)    However, my favorite current memory (oxymoron at its best) is the birth of my son. AWWWW... sweet I know..  I remember everything from the morning before when I begged the doctor to just light and fire and smoke him out, so she swept my cervix instead- less invasive she said.. that bitch doctor lied... Then 24 hours later I started my labor. I texted my husband in the morning that I didnt feel good so his leaders sent him home to bring me to the hospital. Was 39 weeks and triage nurse said that I was 3 cm and I wouldnt be back til the weekend. More lies....You would think they were lawyers.. So I bounced on my couch all day and watching "Analyze This" and "Analyze That". I laughed all through my labor. It didnt hurt at all, even with my contractions being 7mins apart.. thats no lie. After Sexy Beast came home from work, we went to the gym so I could walk on the treadmill... I remember the stares I got from people. They were just waiting for me to blow up so they could catch all the confetti and candy that flies out. I remember having to stop and breath through my walking and then telling the ball and chain that we need to head home. So we made my favorite meal inspired by the one and only restaurant, Shoreline (father in laws business)- Some eggs over medium, hashbrowns with ketchup, and toast. I was so excited for it.. We put on a movie- The Resident, and two bites into it my water broke. I screamed and ran to the bathroom. "Damn it, Its my favorite dinner tonight.."       to be continued

Who is my celebrity free pass?
LMAO. This made me laugh out loud for real... I never really thought about it. My angel on my shoulder would kick the devils ass anyday so I dont think he would even let me have a free pass. But if he was sleeping one time, I think Id say Jennifer Aniston. Yes... Id cross the line for her.
