Another Liebster!

This is awesome!!  It was less than a month ago that I received my first Liebster and now I was nominated for another.  I figured, heck, why not?  I can think of 11 more bloggers I'd like to share with you, so I can muster up a bit more about myself.

This time, I was nominated by Kaeley at My Mind's Lens.  Thanks so much, Kaeley!!

Here are the rules, in case you forgot:

The award is given to new or up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers and then the award is then passed along to other bloggers in the same category to help spread the word and support one another.

*Each blogger nominated must post 11 things about themselves
*Then answer the 11 questions the tagger has asked
*Blogger must then create 11 questions of their own to ask the bloggers they decide to nominate
*They must choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers to nominate and link them on their blog post
*Bloggers must be notified of their award!
*No tag backs!

These are going to be completely random since I used the good ones last time around.
