The Liebster Award


Imogene over at Little and Big Moments has nominated me for this award. I've been nominated before but never got around to doing it. Imogene has been reading my blog and told me how much she loved reading it (much to my surprise. Wasn't sure who read it. Ha) so I just had to answer her questions.
Be sure to head on over and have a look around her blog. Thanks for the nomination and thanks for reading my blog.


WHAT IS THE LIEBSTER AWARD?
The Liebster Award helps bloggers with fewer than 1,000 followers to get their names out there and helps us promote our blogs better. My lovely readers get to learn 22 random facts about me, and I get to ask questions to the bloggers I nominate.

THE RULES OF THE COMPETITION 
1. Thank the person who nominated you, posting a link back to their blog on your blog. (This goes without saying! :))

2. Display the award logo on your blog post or as a widget or gadget. (It’s best to save the image to your desktop and then upload it to your post.)

3. Answer 11 questions about yourself, which the person who nominated you has asked.

4. Provide 11 random facts about yourself.

5. Nominate five – 11 blogs that you think are deserving of the award, and who have less than 1000 followers. (You can always ask the blog owner this since not all blogs display a widget that lets the readers know this information.)

6. Create a new list of questions for the nominated bloggers to answer.

7. List these rules in your post (you can copy and paste from here.)

8. Once you have written and published it, you then have to Inform the people/blogs that you nominated for the Liebster Award that you've actually done so! Provide a link for them to your post so that they can learn about it (they might not have ever heard of it!)


The 11 questions I had to answer were...

Where's your favourite place to eat out?
The hotel where I had my wedding reception. The Devon Inn Hotel. Such great memories and great food.
If you had to give yourself a new name, what would you pick?
This is tough. I was given my name and don't know what else I would be but me. For some reason I always liked the name Jessica.
What is the worst film/movie you've ever seen?
Dumb and dumber.
What is something new you've learnt this week?
That I can make pretty much anything if I have my glue gun.
When you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be a groom and work with horses. I kind of came true as I have my own horses now. I just don't get paid to do it. 
If you were given 3 wishes, what would they be?
For my kids to be set up for life.
To be in my dream home with no mortgage.
To be debt free.
What quality about yourself do you value most?
My creativity. It's brought so much joy to my life and it's how I express myself. I can turn my hand to pretty much anything.
What do you like to do on a rainy day?
Two things. Go for a ride on my horse and sit by the fire, in my pj's watching Christmas movies.
What was the last book you read?
I'm not a big book reader. Never really liked it and always found it hard to do. The last book I read from cover to cover was when I was a teenager can't remember the name. Do cookbooks count? I've read loads of those.
If you knew you only had 24 hours left to live, what would you do in that time?
Spend it with my family. 
If you could be any celebrity, who would you be?
Sarah Jessica Parker because she got to marry Mr. Big and has amazing shoes. 

11 random facts about me

I hate cheese and onions taytos. They make me want to vomit.

I'm the eldest of 3 in my family but I'm the shortest. I'm scraping 5'4". Barely scraping.
I met my husband in a field while hunting and told him to "F" off and mind his own business. Clearly it was love at first sight for him. :)
