Liebster Award

Thank you so much to Paige @ Sunday Best and All the Rest for nominating Becca and I for the Liebster Award!

Liebster Award Rules:

Acknowledge the blog that nominated you.

Answer the 11 questions the nominating blogger created.

List 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers that deserve some recognition.

Write 11 questions for them to answer.

Notify them they've been nominated.

Since there are two of us answering the questions, we'll have Becca's answers be blue, and Bethany's shall be purple.

1) Are you a morning person or a night owl?

Hmmm…. I can be both when necessary.

I'd say morning person.

2) Do you prefer dogs, cats, both or neither?

Both favorites!

Cats!

3) Where did you get your name?

It was a birthday present from my Dad :)

Ditto!

4) Do you have an unusual talent?

I don't think so...

I am very good at opening jars with tight lids. 

Just ask my mom or Becca; I have Vulcan strength. :)

5) Would you rather show up at an event over-dressed or under-dressed?

Over-dressed, though I've done both before :P

Overdressed.

6) If given a choice, would you rather perform singing, dancing, or playing an instrument?

Singing!

Playing an instrument.

7) What kind of job do you have (to me, this means anything from a career to getting paid to do chores around the house or babysit your siblings)? 

I work part time at our local greenhouse.

I am a Librarian's Assistant, and I love it!

8) What was the song you last heard? 

I'm listening to music right now! 

The last song that played was "Mood Rings" by Reliant K, it's a cute song :)

Violin Concerto by Johannes Brahms.

I was on my way home from work tonight and it was playing on the radio.

9)  Food you last ate?

Leftover beef and broccoli.

Spagetti and cheese. It's like macaroni and cheese, except we didn't have macaroni noodles. :) 

10) Part of the Bible you last read? 

Philippians

What a coincidence, me too! 

11) Is there any quality you think the Lord is growing in you right now (e.g., patience, love, trust)? 

I think the Lord has been teaching me perspective and priorities.

The things of earth will pass away, 

but the things of God and human souls will last forever.

Keeping that always in mind changes the way my time and thoughts are spent.

Hmmm, I think the Lord has been growing me in the way I use my words. 

What I say, and even how I say things needs to be kind and encouraging, and that isn't always the first thing I think about before I speak.

Ok, I don't know if we can come up with 11 other bloggers to nominate, but we'll do as many as we can.

1) Abbey at Dolls, Books, And Things That Matter

2) Libs at If You Give a Girl a Pen

3) Jack at However Improbable

4) Lauren at Musings of a Flower Child

Hmmm, I think anyone else we could do has already been nominated!

And our questions are…

1) Do you prefer coffee, or tea?

2) What was your first pet?

3) If you could go back in time, what century would you most like to visit?

4) What is your favorite hymn?

5) Who is your favorite Christian hero, and why? (e.g. Missionary, Bible character, etc.)

6) Would you rather live in a victorian mansion, or a log cabin?

7) How did you decide that you wanted to start a blog?

9) What mode of transportation do you prefer: planes, trains, or automobiles?

10) Do you think bow ties are cool?

11) What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?
