LOVE

I got the Liebster Award from sweet Stephany a few days ago. Since I have gotten this award a few times I am going to do things a little differently..

Rules:
- Each person must post 11 things about themselves.
- Answer the 11 questions the tagger has set for you.
- Choose some friends and tag them in this post.
- Go to their page and tell them.

11 Things about Me:
1)I always say this one, but it's because people always meet me and they're like "Wow, you're really tiny!" I am 4 foot 11.
2) I didn't know how to cook until I met Mr. H. He made me learn to cook. First meal I made for him was tuna helper, which was a first for me, with green beans and corn for sides.
3) I am a Investigation Discovery Channel junkie. Rarely do I watch any other channel. I have seen so many of the stories that when they air the story in a different show on that channel I'm like "oh, I know about this one.." Thankfully Mr. H really likes it too so there isn't much fuss about what we watch.
4)I have 2 siblings. Meghann and Kaleb. Kaleb is 18, fixing to be 19 and works in Florida. He's a construction foreman, he makes bank and hangs out at the beach all the time. Hard life! Megahnn is 21 and has two of my favorite little babies in this world that call me Auntie Manda.
5)I lived with my Grandparents growing up. They are seriously the best people ever.
6) I wish I could drive a Mini Cooper again. The first car I ever bought myself was a Mini Cooper and it was amaze. The S edition. I had to practice for 3 days learning how to drive a manual, but I did and I was so proud of myself for buying that thing at the age of 19. Now I couldn't have one on the ranch, that'd be a sight though.
7)I love roller coasters. They're retiring one of my favorites at Six Flags in Arlington, Texas this year so I am hoping to get over there before the new year and ride it one last time.
8) I love Miranda Lambert.
9) I used to live ON the beach.
10) A year ago Mr. H and I had decided we weren't having children. Yeah, 2 weeks later we found out I was pregnant.
11) I record Teen Mom while it's on and wait until the next day while Mr. H is at work to watch it. He doesn't know that. He would make SO much fun of me if he caught me. Thank God he doesn't know how to work the remote very well.
