One of my favorite bloggers, Jessica @
The Newly wrote
a post a few weeks ago titled "20 Things You Might Now Know About Me" and I loved it! Personally, my favorite posts to read are posts that help me get to know my favorite bloggers more. It's so fun to learn more about blog friends so I figured I'd steal this idea and do one of my own! I hope you learn something new about me!
1. I have a tattoo on my hip that says "Believe". I got it on my 18th birthday. I was in a phase of dealing with my parents' divorce, dealing with a hard breakup, all the while believing that the Lord had the perfect plan for my life. It's hidden by my underwear/bathing suit bottoms but whenever I see it I am reminded to always Believe in His promises and goodness!
2. I have a German short-haired pointer. Yes, we have a bird dog and no, we do not hunt. My husband fell in love with the breed while I was in the corner pouting, "I do not want a dog with spots!". Needless to say, my husband won. She is my spoiled baby and I will have a GSP until the day I die! Best breed ever!
3. My hair is naturally super curly but I
hate it. It takes forever to straighten, hence why I am always wearing it up or in a sock bun.
4. Champagne is my drink of choice. Prosecco to be exact.
5. My dad is an orthodontist. And I had braces 3 times because I never wore my retainers. Terrible daughter.
6. I was the captain of my 4A State Championship volleyball team in high school. We won the state championship my senior year, and it was my high school's first ever female team to win a championship.
7. I require a ton of sleep to function. Like,
>9 hours. Which makes me absolutely terrified to have kids. I am going to be an unpleasant human being due to the lack of sleep.
8. I'm blind as a bat. Almost legally blind to be exact. When I take my contacts out I can't even text because I can't see my phone. My husband makes fun of me for holding objects 1 inch from my face to see them.
9. I
haaaate raw tomatoes. They taste like metal to me and the texture… just no. It kills me because they look so yummy on a BLT in the summer but I just can't.
10. I have an older and a younger sister. People always think my older sister and I are twins, but she's 3 years older than me. My younger sister has red hair, and she's the only person in our entire family with red hair.
11. I LOVE to read. Give me a good mystery or love story and I will be content for hours.
12. My biggest fear is infertility. Silly, considering we haven't even tried to get pregnant yet. But so many people I love have suffered through it and it is my worst nightmare!
13. My day doesn't start until coffee. Husband says my "feet hit the floor and head straight to the coffee maker"… true story
14. I heart candles. All kinds, but especially the ones from Anthropologie
15. My niece and nephew are my life [which I'm sure you already knew if you even somewhat keep up with my blog]
16. My favorite house "chores" are laundry and vacuuming
17. I absolutely despise sweeping and unloading the dishwasher
18. Fresh flowers= happy heart. Pink peonies, yes please!
19. I have wanted to work in medicine my entire life. I would walk around at 5 years old saying I wanted to be a "doctor that delivered babies". Can't wait to finally be a PA in 6 short months!
20. I am a terrible cook. It's embarrassing. Luckily my husband is a great cook and loves doing it. Otherwise, we'd starve.
