You Are Now Reading an Award Nominated Blog

That's right, folks,

Laura from Navigating the Mothership sweetly nominated me for a "Beautiful Blogger" award. This, of course, is based on my supermodel good looks and cover-worthy face. Just kidding. Thanks, Laura! (check out her blog. Her notes on motherhood have me in stitches everytime I read a post. Seriously. She is hilarious!)

So, my duties as a nominated "Beautiful Blogger" are to tell you seven interesting facts about me and then nominate 7 more beautiful bloggers. Here goes:

1) I have two middle names. They are Nichole and McKenzie. If you know my last name, you would understand why I never under any circumstances would have hyphenated my name when I got married.

2) When I was a 7th grader I played the role of Oliver Twist in a local college production. It would be the height of my acting career.

3) I am one of 8 lovely ladies in a group of high school friends. We attended the same dance studio. We still take a mostly-annual trip together after all these years. Our name is Fatmess.

4) I studied the cello in college, and play in the Central Wisconsin Symphony Orchestra. We have a concert this weekend!

5) I listened to Adagio for Strings by Samuel Barber every single night for a whole summer.

6) I climbed Long's Peak, a 14,000-er outside of Estes Park, Colorado.

Aaaaand,

7a) I hate red paint on walls. Not YOUR walls! If you have red paint on your walls, it is lovely.

7b) I am a people pleaser. See 7a.

There you have it. Now to nominate. I don't think I even know 7 bloggers, but I'll do my best.
