Happy Hancock's: a lovely liebster award

kelli, from Team Gilbert, nominated me for this liebster award,

which basically is a thing of the blogging world.

I'm a total noobie on this whole blogging thing...

soooo i kinda looked it up...

so it's name, liebster, is german + means lovely, dearest, sweetest, you know all those nice words,

+ it's basically a chain letter, to be passed around. basically really fun of kelli
to send this to me!

+ i also really like the whole answering questions kinda thing,

so i'm joining in!

the way it works:

1.answer the questions of the person who nominated you

2.create 11 new questions

3.nominate 11 new bloggers

so here i go!

1. how would you describe your blog? (what do you blog about?)

i would like to think that my blog shares my happy moments + my good times. i've actually started i think 4 blogs now. every single one of them have maybe 5 posts on them. i've also deleted all but one. i started this one off as a goal. i wanted to keep track of good times with my pictures + video's with words. i'm a looker backer + i love the thought of going back over my good times here. this blog is about us, our families, our friends, pizza nights, sheila tales + whatever else good that comes into our lives!

2.where do you shop the most? why?

let's all be honest here. i'm a lover of target. who isn't? and their one dollar section...living closer than 20 mins from one would be a disaster to our wallets. why? is it the clothes, the shoes the jewelry? nooooway. i'm a sucker for home decor + cute little filler things. ever since i got married, i have an inner battle with how much decoration our home really needs...i mean, everything should be cute in a home. am i right or am i right?

3.what is your dream job?

i'm living my dream job as a videographer at inspire me video, a company i started just under a year ago. i get to film happy moments for a job. i mean, being the emotional person that i am, i edit the moments i capture + remember my happy times over + over again. life was meant to be captured. i'm just happy that i learned to do that. but secretly if i could i would love to be a videographer for red bull + capture some of the insanely amazing stuff they do.

4.what is your favorite all-time book?

if you haven't read, these is my words, drop whatever you are doing + find this book. i read it three times last year + am craving another read soon. it's amazing amazing amazing. you will fall in love with captain jake. promise.

5.what is your favorite way to work out?

coming from someone who thinks cleaning the house in a solid work out, i would say my favorite work out would be soccer, longboarding + taking bike rides. i love being active, so hikes + adventures are always a yes. i'm also really trying to find the love for running. i've been pretty good at going everyday, but it's a work in process.

6.knowing what you know now, what advice would you give your 13-year-old self?

you know, looking over my life, there really isn't anything i regret per say. sure, i wish i could tell awkward camilla about a few things to avoid, but for the most part, i believe that i was a pretty solid kid + turned out pretty good. i would just say, be a better daughter to my father. i regret not having the relationship that i share with him now, then.

7.what is one skill you want to master?

being more care-free.

8. where is your favorite place you have traveled?

jay + i's honeymoon was a blast. check it out here. it was just the funnest thing because we had just gotten married, we were crazy happy + had a week of no cares. a good one to remember.

9. what is your favorite blog?

that's definatly a hard one because there are a lot that i really love. like, i love blogs, but the blog that inspired me + i love reading is the flybird. her photography is amazing + i love how she writes.

10.what is your favorite blog post you have written?

that's a good question...a hard one too. i think right now my favorite is about my resolution, self-portrait.

11. what is your favorite childhood memory?

maybe it was the pancake mornings we always had. or maybe it was the bunnies i loved. maybe it was family reunions with all my cousins or the huge backyard i played pretend in. or the friends i've made or the projects my mom stayed up forever helping me finish. maybe the bike rides or the mormon parties. the lessons i learned, all those kids i've babysat for. being a lifeguard, being a flirt, being a stress-free girl. maybe when i first drove a car all by myself, without anyone in it. the walks every sunday night with ashley. the christmas mornings that always started with stockings + cinnamon bun wreaths. the parties i threw, the parties thrown for me. i have an awesome childhood. i love those memories.

now here are some awesome blogs you should check out that i nominated:
