Stork Award

Before I took my little techno-fast, I got another award nomination from Kristin 

at Bringing Home Baby Franz. Third time's the charm! I find it a little ironic that it's called the stork award though. Haha! 

Here are the rules:

Link the person(s) who nominated you.

Answer the 10 questions about yourself.

Nominate as many bloggers as you want to receive the award.

Ask your nominees 10 new questions.

Link your nominees and let them know they have been nominated.

Post the Stork Award icon on your blog side bar if you are so inclined.

Kristin's questions for me:

1. What is your dream job?

Easy, stay at home mom. The best, hardest, and most rewarding job in the world, in my opinion. I'm sure I've idealized it over the years cause I want it so badly.

2. If you could have any super power, what would it be?

I wouldn't call it a "super power" per say, but we just read about Christ giving the apostles the authority to heal people.

"And as you go, preach, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand.' Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give." Matthew 10:7-8

Yep, I would put that to some good use.

3. Favorite season?

Souther California doesn't really have seasons, and that just fine by me. I do like when everything blooms in spring though.

4. If you could go back in time and give yourself advice from when you were in high school, what would you say?

Don't waist time planning your life out so extensively. God has a plan and it is NOTHING like yours. Although He will stretch you farther than you think you can go, He will also bless you more than you could imagine.

5 Have you ever had major surgery?

Had to have a few surgeries to repair some things after my car accident seven years ago. At the time they felt "major", but they have faded after seven years and, looking back now, I would call the surgeries themselves uncomfortable but minor.

6. How did you meet your significant other?

A friend in high school pointed Josh out to me across the quad one day because she thought he was cute. He was cute. My friend never made a move, so....I was never good at flirting though so another friend had to step in for me and let Josh know I thought he was cute. *sigh* High school... That was almost 14 years ago now!!

7. Favorite school subject?

Math. I've always enjoyed the predictability and structure of math. I have my AA in accounting. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) I also have a very creative personality that kind of conflicts with that much structure. I'll never be an accountant for that reason. My math skills have come in handy though. They've helped with our personal budget and I also volunteer at a local pro-life pregnancy center helping with their bookkeeping.

8. Soda or Pop or Coke?

None. I very rarely drink any soda. Too sweet. Every once in a while I take a sip of Josh's, but I just don't like it much.

9. Did you play any sports in high school?

Josh and I were both on the tennis team. Go tennis!

10. What was your first car?

Oh man. I inherited my grandmothers Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera. It was maroon with velour interior, also maroon. The radio didn't ever work and there was no CD player. It was the best.

Ok, now I'm suppose to nominate as many other bloggers as I want. Well, seeing as how I have only been blogging for a little over three months and have already listed almost all the blogs I follow, there is only one left. Gingi (Domestic Geek Girl)!!! Since she nominated me for my other two awards, she's the only one I haven't gotten to nominate back. 

Enjoy your nomination Gingi, and since you also have recently had a run of these blog nominations, I will leave it to you to do what you will. You are welcome to ask yourself ten questions if you feel like the rules need to be followed. However, if you feel led to do something completely different, do it! I leave it to your more than capable imagination.
