Well thank you very much ladies!! Amy of cloudcoucoucrafts and Jessica of abushelandapeck surprised me with the nominations. I really appreciate it :) And what is a Liebster Award? Don't feel bad--I didn't know either. After some google searching I found that it means "dearest" in German. Made to help new bloggers with under 200 followers get some more traffic to their site. I always wondered if anyone read my blog!
Rules are the following:
- Post eleven facts about yourself.
- Answer the questions the nominee has set for you and create eleven questions for people you’ve nominated.
- Choose eleven people (with fewer than 200 followers) to give this award to and link them in your post.
- Go to their page and let them know.
- No tag backs!
About Me:
- I have lived in the same small town my whole life.
- I am an only child.
- Before I had kids, I use to be a dog groomer.
- I am an avid trail rider.
- I use to scrapbook but lost interest.
- I read almost every night in bed.
- My last Birthday present was a pink camo shotgun :)
- I'm scared to death to go to the dentist.
- I never ever wash my truck. I wait for my man to do it or I go to the car wash.
- I don't care what they say--I'm a Twilight fan!!
- I love scary movies.
