Ask Away Friday with April from 100lb Countdown
Hey guys and welcome to another addition of #AskAwayFriday!
What is this thing I speak of, you ask? It’s an awesome link-up where bloggers partner up, ask each other ten questions, and then each blogger answers those questions in a post. It’s a great way for everyone to get to know each other and make new friends!
This week I partnered up with April of 100lb Countdown! April’s blog is full of tips and support for people who want to pursue a healthier lifestyle, as well as various posts about parenting, life, and family. She’s got a ton of great stuff to read; pay her a visit!
1. When I checked out your site and I ended up spending quite a bit of time reading the Weekly Blessings series. What inspired you to start this series?
~ Thanks for reading! I was sitting one day watching Jack Van Impe, when all of a sudden it came to me! Ha. I wanted to do something to help people who may not have a church home or just doesn’t really go to church for whatever reason to have a form a church in some way, and I thought my blog would be a good way to do it.
2. What do you feel is your biggest blessing? The blessing that has helped you in your life the most?
~ Every since I was little my family has told me I’ve had “the midas touch,” meaning that if there was ever something I wanted/needed I always managed to get it, which is highly due to the faith I have that God will see me through. I believe that that has helped me get through a lot in my life, and still is!
3. What inspired you to start blogging?
~My curiosity about the blog world is what inspired me. Initially, I was completely against blogging, but something kept nagging at me to try it, so I just decided to give it a go. Glad I did,too.
4. Where do you see your blog in 5 years?
~Good question! I see my blog bigger and better than ever in 5 years! By that time I want to be able to start really earning income from my blog and having a really solid following.
5. I noticed in your first #AAF, you mentioned you like the name Noelle. That’s my middle name! What’s yours?
~ Really? That’s awesome! I think Noelle is such a pretty name. My middle name is Deanna, after my mother’s oldest sister, who is a pretty fantastic woman, I might add.
6. Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
~ In 10 years I see myself married with a family of my own(hopefully), a good career, and just a happy life!
7. What’s your favorite bible verse and why?
~ I like so many Bible verses, but one I do like is Isaiah 41:10- Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand. I love this verse because it basically sums up the year I’ve had ha. Although I went through a number of trials and tribulations, I thank God for seeing me through it all and keeping me, because things could have been MUCH worse.

8. What’s your favorite part about college?
~My favorite part about college is the freedom without responsibility. I get to live on my own and take care of myself, yet I don’t have to worry about bills and other stresses of adult life LOL.
9. Do you have any talents? Let us know!
~Uh…..LOL. I don’t think I have any talents. I’m just average, I guess ha.
10. Describe your dream home… include colors, location, size, type… paint us a picture or show us one!
My dream home may look a little something like this:
