I received a blog award from Sweet, Sassy, Southern, and Classy. She is one of my favorite daily reads! She is so cute and super sweet! I am positive if we met IRL we would be the best of friends. It has been a little while since I participated from one of these, so I am very excited to do so! Thanks so much!
So here are the rules: I have to do is post 10 random facts about me and pass it on to 10 bloggers. Here we go:
1. I am addicted to shows that most girls would never watch. Stormchasers on Discovery is my favorite right now. I have watched all the episodes about 3 times each! I also love to watch Mythbusters, Survivorman, Man vs. Food, No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain, and just about any wildlife documentary, especially the snake ones. Yes, I know these are weird shows to watch and most girls leave the room when their guys turn it on. I just can't get enough of these shows. Don't worry too much though...I still get my girl tv in too!
2. I hate vegetables! Seriously HATE! Just thinking about vegetable soup makes my skin crawl. I have never liked them and the hatred has only gotten worse with age. The weird thing about it is that I can tolerate looking at them when they are raw, but if they are cooked I will feel sick. I despise when I go to Cracker Barrel and someone with me gets a veggie plate because I don't want to eat my food because looking at their plate makes my stomach turn. I seriously have to pretend it isn't there. I will eat the veggies that are used as seasoning like celery, peppers, and onions and I like salad as long as their isn't broccoli and stuff in it and I love potatoes and corn, but if you would cook it as a side dish, I probably wouldn't eat it.
3. I am probably the most organized person you have ever met. I actually really enjoy organizing. I have a secret dream of becoming a professional organizer for people who are cluttered like on Clean House. I think it would be really fun! I like seeing things go from messy to organized and beautiful!
4. Ever since I got engaged I have been having NIGHTMARES that something is going to go wrong on my wedding day. I am serious! I have at least one a week! They are always something like the flowers didn't get here, the cake fell out of the truck and was smashed, I walk down the aisle and my train gets ripped off my dress, I look down at my ring and all the diamonds are gone, or the mother of all dreams was the one I had last week when we decided to move the wedding date up and I had to plan the entire thing in 3 days! I was running around buying flowers and trying to find a dress and a wedding present for Thomas, but when I walked into the backyard of our house (um, don't know why it was going to be held there) it was all decorated in pink and looked so gorgeous. I am going to be a complete wreck on the wedding day about all the things that could go wrong. In daily life, I am not stressed at all about any of this, but I guess the stress is coming out in my dreams!
5. I drink Coca-Cola more than should be allowed. I hate Diet Coke! Full calories and sugar for me! I really have to make sure I don't buy it for our house or office because I will drink can after can. I bought some for work and I drank 3 yesterday!!! Terrible! I remembered why I don't bring it to work now!
6. I eat like a bird. I can make a meal from a restaurant last for 3 meals and be completely stuffed!
7. I love animal prints and plan to buy some zebra and cheetah print things for Thomas and my first home.
8. I am a total girly girl now, but when I was little I had a love/hate relationship with being a girly girl. I was obsessed with the color blue and got my mom to buy me a blue plaid comforter for my bed. We once had to evacuate for a hurricane and I took the comforter with me because I was scared it wouldn't be there when we got back! I wouldn't wear anything with a rosette on it, I would cut it off! I got in trouble for this once. I also hated dresses and wanted to wear jeans and smiley face t-shirts and stuff like that. I think I probably broke my momma's heart about that! BUT, I was so girly in other ways. I had a unicorn and princess themed room (with an ugly blue plaid comforter!) and played American Girl dolls and Barbies and house all the time. I hated going outside and would rather stay inside and play dress-up all day. I loved dance and cheerleading and never wanted to play soccer or anything. I think I was a confused little girl, don't you!
9. I have recently really started loving Christian music. Chris Tomlin is my favorite. I always loved singing it at church, but now I listen to it most of the time in the car. Truthfully, my whole life has really changed since I joined my church last November. I have become so much closer to God. I have been saved for years, but through high school I didn't really challenge myself to a closer relationship with God. I prayed, yes, but I didn't work on growing my relationship. I imagine that is pretty normal for teens. This church has made me realize that I desire to become a strong woman of God and that I want to be his hands and feet. My relationship has grown by leaps and bounds and I feel like I could burst with joy just thinking about it! God really is my joy and I would have nothing without him! I wish everyone on earth could experience the way I feel about God because it is so amazing! I am not the same person I was a year ago!
10. I am searching for a biblical life verse. There are quite a few I really like, but I don't feel like I have one specific one that is my life verse yet. Do any of y'all have a life verse? I think there might just be different verses that are good for different times in your life. I have this verse hanging up on my bulletin board in my office and I really like it. It is a really good verse for where I am in my life and walk with Christ.
For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10
I will pass this on to all of my new followers. Thanks for following and welcome to my blog!
I wear this dress with these plaid shoes from Payless. They are very cute and comfortable. 
I hope y'all have enjoyed my first "What's In Jennifer's Closet?" 
Kassidy Dress! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Glaston Tunic - I have wanted this top ever since Hopsy showed it on her blog! I ran into my Lilly store and admired how pretty the beading was! Again, I could not think of one place to wear it besides wanting it so badly. Now, I think I will wear it to one of my bridal showers and/or on my honeymoon with a pair of white pants and a fun strappy pink heel!
Paley Cardigan in Dill Green and Lilly's Pink - I have loved this cardigan for a while too and am trying to build my cardigan collection. I don't have very many colors and I don't know why! I adore them, but never seem to buy them when I am shopping! I have a little collection going now with my Land's End and now my Lillys! I am now really wanting the dresses they have these paired with! Ha! Shopaholic! I will have to browse Ebay come spring and see if I ever find them!
