A Little Late to the Party

I've seen a bunch of bloggers that have participated and I'm definitely a little late to the party, but better late than never! And what better way to let you know a bit more about me than a blogger 411!


1. How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed?
Wow, I hadn't realized it, but I started this blog over two years ago. I can't claim that I have been a faithful blogger, but I started it on a whim so making it this long is amazing! It has changed a bit as I have found more focus, but it's still a bit all over the place {because that's who I am}


2. Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study?
Yuppers. I went to a small liberal arts school up in Tacoma, Washington and I double majored in Art History and French Literature

Gotta love the Pacific Northwest

3. Where have you traveled?
I have been very lucky to have had the opportunity to travel. I've been to over half the contiguous fifty states and 8 different countries including summers in England as a kid and an amazing trip to Peru my senior year of high school. 


4. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would buy?
Hmm, technically it's not a thing, but I plan a fabulous vow renewal ceremony so I could finally have my dream wedding. And then I'd buy a house :-)


5. What are your 3 biggest pet peeves?
So hard to pick three. I'll go with some of my recent irritations: people who say "liberry" I'm never sure if they think it's cute or if they are just dumb.  Chronic oversharers. In this world of burgeoning social media, oversharers have a plethora of options to hurt my soul.


6. What is your favorite movie?
I have to pick just one? What Dreams May Come is definitely one of my top choices.


7. What is your drink of choice; wine, beer, or liquor. Or Water, Soda, Tea?
Diet Coke and Wine {depending on the occasion}

8. What is something you enjoy to do when you have me time?
I love a good pedicure or getting my hair done. Makes me feel all pretty and girly :-)


9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, which store would it be?
Probably Nordstrom, because they have everything I could want.... or maybe Target lol 


10. Share with us an embarrassing moment of your past? Or present.
Oh dear, I have plenty of embarrassing moments. One that comes to mind right away is a night I had one two many drinks and face planted in front of an entire bar worth of people {blood everywhere... no recollection the next day, just pain and blood lol}

11. What day would you love to relive again?
I think I'd have to go with the day my husband proposed. I was taken by such surprise that day and I wish I could remember every moment with more detail.


12. If your life was turned into a movie... what actor would play you?
Emma Stone... although I would hate to have her play me and then when people saw the real me they thought, oh man, Emma Stone is way too pretty to play that girl {lets face it, we've probably all said it about some actor that played a real person}


13. What are the jobs you had in high school/college/the early years?
I haven't had many paying jobs, but I was a camp counselor, dance teacher's assistant, babysitter etc.


14. Show us a picture from high school or college.

When you're a picture-holic like me, it's hard to pick just one

15. If you could travel anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go?
Australia! I think it would be an amazing adventure, but quite frankly way out of the budget right now.


16. Show us the most current picture of you or you, or your family, or anything of meaning to you. 

We're goofy, but I love it

17. Where do you see your life 5 years from now?
Hubs will have finished with school and perhaps we will find ourselves with another munchkin and even maybe a puppy friend for Bear too. Geographically? Who knows!
