People's Choice Award

1. Which celebrity do you think you look like?
Hands down my family. From my husband and kids to my siblings, parents and in laws. They have stood behind me in every decision I have ever made. I could not be more proud of them or more grateful for them! They truly are my rock.

2. Which do your prefer? Talking on the phone or texting?
My mother. I've never known a stronger individual in my life. She lost both of her parents & her only sibling young. With each loss, she never became bitter. She is the glue in our family & always reminds us that blessings and life is our gift from God!

3. What’s something you only do when you get bored?
My faith. Its the one thing that cannot be taken from me. Although I thoroughly enjoy my earthly possessions, I know that it is only through God that I have what I have and He has so much more in store for us!

4. Are you overly loyal to any clothing brands?
"Hollywood" I will admit that the bigger the hat, sunglasses and shoes the better. I love all that is flashy! A girlfriend of mine referred to me as "Hollywood" at a bar-b-que because I was in 6 inch heels. The nickname stuck and I admit, it fits me well!

5. What is the biggest risk you have ever taken?
Summer! I hate the snow and the cold, and I don't enjoy fall or spring as they simply remind me that the snow is either coming or going. In South Dakota, our summer weather is short and I soak it up every chance I get!
