Can you believe I Was Nominated for the Liebster Award?!
I want to say a huge THANK YOU to Julie at The Path To An Organized Tomorrow for the nomination! Not only did I get to take part in this awesome award I am also able to meet some amazing bloggers through the experience!
What is the Liebster Award?
I'm glad you asked. The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say “You’re doing a great job”. It is for blogs with 200 or fewer followers, so it’s also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs and get them more readers and followers! I'm thrilled to be nominated for the Liebster Award and share the same kindness with others.
Now What Do I Do with this Award?
When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person(s) who nominated you. You pass the Award on to 11 other blogs (make sure you tell them you nominated them!) and ask them 11 questions. You’re not allowed to nominate the blog(s) who nominated you! (To get the button, right-click the picture on my page and save the picture to your computer. You can then upload to your blog.)

Nomination Questions I Was Asked
- Why do you blog? It is something I enjoy a way to hold myself accountable and help others out there who might be in the same spot in life that I am – a busy Mom who needs to find more time and be more organized – I think we can all relate!
- Does the scope of subject matter and target audience of your blog today match what you envisioned when you started? It sure does! I started sharing weekly goals and my journey of accomplishing them and shared stories of life along the way, not it is that but so much more!
- What was your favorite book as a child? That's a tough one, I LOVED the Boxcar Children series
- What is your favorite season? If I had to pick I would say summer, seems more relaxed and so much more to do.
- Is form or function more important to you? Form follows function so the function would be the most important because knowing what you want first then creating it from there!
- If you could have one day to do anything, what would it be? Right now I would say sleep but I would love to have one day with no cares filled with fun, food, and friends! Preferably fun as some kind of adrenaline activity like skydiving or rollercoaster theme park!
- If you use a smartphone, what app can you not live without? I was thinking email first off but thinking of it I would have to say picture apps that I can share with friends and family!
- What is your favorite board game? There is nothing more fun than a good old game of Stock Ticker, Monopoly, or Scrabble!
- Would you rather have a maid, a personal chef, or a gardener? Maid, hands down.
- What is the most organized room in your house? The kitchen by far
- What qualities of you do you see in your children? Independence is the main one I see in both of my kids!

Dear Real Momma,
#1. Congratulations! Couldn’t have happened to a better gal (and I’m not just saying that because of #2).
#2. Thank you so much for nominating me!
#3. Your #8. “Look up current events before going to any social event so I have things to talk about” is brilliant! Must implement.
#4. Did you have to make my questions so difficult!? I mean “Rain or Snow”!? I guess I could publish my Master’s Thesis on “The Dilemma: Rain versus Snow”.
#5. Off to check out all the other blogs mentioned.
Besos, Sarah
