This was an exciting surprise this morning, I was nominated by Stephanie over at Sweet Boutique for the Liebster Award. Perhaps you are asking "Why Michelle, what is the Liebster Award?" I will tell you.
The Liebster Award is given to bloggers, by bloggers. It is a way to
acknowledge each other and say, "You are doing a great job." It is for
blogs with 200 or less followers, so it is also a great way to spread
the word about smaller blogs and get them more readers and followers!
When you receive the award you post eleven random facts about yourself,
and answer eleven questions from the person who nominated you. You pass
the award onto eleven other blogs, (make sure you let them know they
were nominated.) and ask them eleven questions. You are not allowed to
nominate the blog that nominated you.

So first off, here are my 11 random questions to answer. I'm sure you are dying to know these things about me.
1. Where is your favorite place to eat? I have so many I couldn't even begin to narrow it down. Right now we are really into Sushi, so I will say the Sushi House in American Fork, Utah. It is amazing!
2. What was the last book you read? The Emerald Atlas. It is the first of a trilogy and I can't wait to read the next one!
3. Who is your "most desirable" celebrity? Matt Damon. I have loved him for years. It's his smile.
4. What C.D. is in your player right now? (do people still use those?...i pod?) I was recently complimented/mocked by my little sister for my preteen music tastes. Taylor Swift is my most played right now.
5. What color is your toothbrush? Blue
6. If you were a tree, what kind would you be? I don't really know much about trees. Maybe a Christmas tree that never gets cut down but is always decorated and loved for it's Christmas spirit. Does that count?
7. What time do you go to bed on a work night? 10:30 almost every night.
8. What is your favorite age you have been so far? I'm pretty happy with where I am now so I'll say 28. Although there are things I have loved about every age.
9.What is your favorite Disney movie? Up. I just think it is so sweet and I have yet to watch it without crying. He just loved his wife so much.
10. If you got a free plane ticket where would you go? Austria. I lived there for 14 months and I miss it so much. I want to take Husband there and show him all my favorite places.
11. What is your favorite expletive? I like to think I am not much of a potty mouth. To this day my mom still gets mad at me for saying "crap." She says it's not ladylike, and she's right, but sometimes I can't stop myself.
