HOLY MOLY! 3 Awards?!?!

So I was sitting at the dealership getting my car serviced (ugh...) working on my super awesome TEKS packet (those TEKS are just so interesting, right. :)), and I get an email from sweet Maggie at First Grade and Fearless telling me she nominated me for the Versatile Blog award. I have seen those floating around blogdom, and had no idea how you got them! I kept thinking "man, I hope in a few months my blog can be as good as that!" Now I know how you get them! :) Sweet, supportive blogger friends! Head over to Maggie's blog here!

THEN, like 10 minutes later, I get another email saying that Tina at Laugh, Live, Love, Learn gave me the Liebster award! WOW! 2 in one day?!? I was shocked!!

THEN, Caralee at Confessions of a Teachanista sent me another Versatile Blogger Award!! HOLY MOLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Her blog is PRESH! I seriously might get the same people to design mine...it's just adorable. 

Thank you so much ladies, you made my day!!!!  And now, I will do my part with the awards. :)


Versatile Blogger Award:
  1. Thank the blogger who nominated you. 
  2. Include a link to their site.
  3. Include the award image in your post.
  4. Give 7 random facts about yourself.
  5. Nominate 5 - 10 other bloggers, include their link,  and let them know.

7 Random Facts about Me! 
1. I have 4 siblings. :) My older sister, Jesse, lives in Michigan and she just got engaged too, yea! I may have started a pinterest board for tat wedding! :) My brothers, Andy and Ben, are twins and they are awesome. :) They are two years younger than me. And then there is Liam. :) My precious little brother is going to be 4 in August! :) I was 21 when he was born, and he is definitely the center of our family. I've heard rumors that Keith might be dressing as Batman for his party...we shall see. :) 

2. Keith and I started dating exactly a week after Liam was born, so it's easy to know how long we've been together :) And Liam pretty much thinks we are one entity, haha


3. I love to Bake. I finally got my Kitchenaid mixer this Christmas...sometimes, I don't want to use it because it's just too pretty!! :)We got new neighbors this weekend, and I'm hoping to use that sparkly pink mixer to make THESE!




4. I have one requirement for when I have a baby. I'm pretty flexible about things, but my daughter will wear a tutu and giant bow on her head EVERY.DAY. every, single day. :) Keith doesn't totally get it, but that's okay. I saw these, and about died. I kinda want to make them now, and store them. :)

5. On that note, Keith is a big ol' computer geek, and I love it. :) He likes comic books, superheroes,  video games, and building computers. One day, I want to decorate our office in super heroes for him. The ONLY thing I can beat him at is Tetris...and I never let him forget it! 

6. I LOVE baseball. Shockingly, I haven't posted anything about it, but my facebook is usually a Texas Rangers newfeed, not Haley newsfeed. This year, when Yu Darvish had his first outing, Keith was working, so I went to the game by myself hahaha. I met some friends there, fortunately, but I still would have gone. I am obsessively committed to my boys. 

7. I have been able to travel alot internationally, but I'm a total home body now. :) I've been to Italy twice, Greece, Germany, Switzerland, Kenya, Chile, Romania, India, and Mexico like 5 times. We went to Hawaii too, and even though it's not international, I still count it. :) We want to go to Ireland, and I want to go back to Kenya and do an amazing safari, but I'd rather be at home on our couch with our puppy than traveling. I don't know why, I guess I just love being home. :)

It was hard for me to pick the blogs I wanted to nominate for each award! I decided not to do the 5 for each Versatile, and 5 for the Liebster. It was kinda overwhelming, haha. :) I decided to do 5 for the Liebster awards, because they are awesome new blogs that I want to support, and 1 for the Versatile blogger because she has been super supportive and her blog is amazing. So, here are the links to 6 super amazing blogs that I hope you'll check out! :)

Versatile

I hope that's okay! Have a super day! I will hopefully be posting about my teacher binder and TEKS checklist tonight or in the morning. Yeah!
