25 Things you don't know about me tag!

Hey everyone! I hope y'all are having a wonderful Tuesday morning! It is supposed to be 110 degrees today where I live, so I hope everyone else is staying cool :)


Anyways, I was reading my friend Emily's (emilynoel83) latest blog post  "Tips for starting a blog!" yesterday and I noticed she was going to do a new vlog on the "25 things you don't know about me" tag. I thought that might be fun for my readers, so I thought I would do it too! Lets get started:
