Blog Award.

Eckkkk, so excited about one of my newest followers, Leanne over at Simply Beautiful! She so sweetly nominated me for the Liebster Award!

This blog award is for up and coming blogs with 200 or less followers! I've been at blogging for quite some time now but am just now getting into the linking up and meeting new bloggers and such. It's so fun to meet such sweet girls through blogging! I especially love reading about girls that are newlyweds since we are in the same walk of life! Soooo, let's get to it!

Rules for the Award:

1. Choose five up and coming blogs to give the award to. Must have less than 200 followers!

2. Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award by linking back to them.

3. Post the award on your blog.

5. Auburn played a great game last weekend and beat Miss. State! They aren't very great so anytime we can squeeze in a W me and hubby are pumped!!

4. Last night I threw some fish together and stuck it in the oven. It was SO yum! I've been failing as of late on the cooking front so this was a needed uplift!!

3. Last weekend was GREAT! Surin on Friday night and catching up on some of our shows.

The Vow, Panera, and shopping on Saturday. And Mexican on Sunday. Blissful! Hubby is so good to me!

2. Monday night we went to go visit our friends Abbey and Lyle in the hospital to meet their sweet baby boy Parker!! Baby and Momma are doing great and he is as cute as can be :) It's so fun to have friends with babies! Hello baby feverrrrr....

1. GIC. This week at our church we are having our Global Impact Celebration. It's my first time ever to attend but I've always heard great things. Wednesday night was the kick-off and it was just as great as everyone had said. We all cheered as Pastor Danny introduced the missionaries and they ran down the isles! The kids/youth sang I Will Follow by Chris Tomlin. I've fallen in love with this song!

And now on to the blog award:

My sweet friend Kristen over at A Lovely Mist gave me my first blog award:

Here's how it works- upon receiving the award, you are to:

4. Award as many bloggers that you think are worthy of this award and make them aware of it

Questions:

What is your go to make up brand?

The truth is... that I don't have a go to brand. I buy what's on sale or cheapest. Pitiful and not very good for my skin, I know! I do love my Neutrogena face powder though- it's pretty much a staple!

What was your favorite fashion trend of 2011?

I'm no where close to being even a semi-fashionista. But I did love all the lacey additions to an outfit. For awhile I thought lace was just meant for wedding dresses but now a days its so great for a dress or a skirt!

What is your favorite dessert?

I loveeee petit fours. But not just any petit fours... Peggy Ann's! They are the most delicious dessert EVER. They melt in your mouth and they are just the perfect size! I had them at my bridesmaids luncheon for my wedding. YUM!

What is your favorite color?

Green!

What is your middle name?

Before I was married, it was Lin.

The last song you listened to?

Adele- Someone Like You.

We just caught up with the rest of the world and downloaded our first Adele song. I'm obsessed.

Dogs or cats?

You know me... can I pick fish?! If I had to pick I would says dogs.

Something you haven't told anyone (on your blog) yet?

Ecckk, I don't know. I've had this blog too long to keep secrets.
