{1} 11 Random Facts about Me

• I was in the Army for six years.
• I have 5 tattoos, 6 if you count the one that I had covered.
• I love all things Louisiana...cajun food, the Saints, Mardi Gras, etc. Born & raised in Shreveport, LA!
• My husband and I were married on the same day we started dating a year prior...started dating 2/12/09...married 2/12/10.
• I usually get car sick when I ride in the back seat...and lately, when I ride in the passenger seat too, so I prefer to drive rather than ride!
• My favorite number is 21, my line number when I pledged Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Oo-oop!!!
• I have an almost two year old labrador retriever named Maci! She's the best dog I've ever had.
• I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist...at certain things.
• My maiden name is Wagner. I miss it some times! My dad had so much pride in his last name. My brother is definitely keeping the family name going with three boys!
• I absolutely love my three nephews!

{2} Okay, I figured you didn't want to know 33 more things about me, 
so I chose a few questions from each blogger, for a total of 11!

Angela's Questions

1. Your fave movie?
• Sister Act 2, but Imitation of Life is a close second. I used to watch Sister Act 2 every night in my dorm room before I started being a party animal!
2. Your fave candy bar?
• Do Reese's Peanut Butter Cups count as a candy bar?
3. What's your middle name?
• Dionne...but growing up, I convinced some classmates that my first name was Kim and my middle name was Berly. Get it?! Kim Berly Wagner
4. Name 1 person in your life that has influenced you the most.
• It's so hard to choose between my mom and my dad...they've both influenced my life so much! If I had to pick one, I guess I would say my mom. She has modeled for me what a Godly woman looks like and it has been amazing to see her faith and positive attitude as she fights breast cancer.

Gayle's Questions

1. What one item in your house {not person or pet} would you rescue from a fire?
• My Macbook, or iPad, or iPhone...one of those! Probably the Macbook!
2.  Do you have any phobias/irrational fears?
• I have a phobia of balloons. Well, phobia may be a bit extreme, but I seriously hate balloons. Blame it on childhood experiences at field day.
3. Favorite TV show: right now? of all time?
• Right now: Scandal / All time: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
4. Who is your favorite superhero?
• Storm from X-Men. I liked her in the comic book, the cartoon, and the movie!

Summer's Questions

1. How many pillows do you currently have on your bed? (you can include throw pillows)
• 9 when the bed is made up, which is rare...so I guess the answer is 2!
2. If you had to eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
• My mom's cornbread dressing...I have to clarify that not just any cornbread dressing will do...it has to be my mom's! I know there are some people who agree that all cornbread dressing is not created equal.
3. What is your earliest childhood memory?
• I have a horrible memory. I think the earliest I can remember is first grade. I remember it snowing and my teacher, Mrs. Welch, took us outside. I made a snowball and put it in my pocket. I was so disappointed when I got home and it wasn't there.
