10.  I played Eve in a church play.

11.  I had a pet Parakeet whose name was Precious.  I was younger and had no intention to do it after Lord of the Rings.  But looking back it is kind of funny that I picked out that name. XD

Questions from Mary

1. What is your favorite season?
Fall.  It is so beautiful and crispy and clean.  Time for sweat pants and sweaters.  And leaves changing color.  Ahhh...

2. If you could only eat one dessert for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Hmmm...probably pastries.  I love scones and éclairs...mmmm.  Pretty much any dessert that has something creamy inside.  I know that is more than one...what can I say...

S'more macrons....say what?
3. What superpower would you most like to possess?
Good question!  I honestly have no idea.  I think flying would be really cool, or...I got it!  A time-traveler.  Wouldn't that be cool!

4. Do you prefer chocolate or vanilla? (I'm apparently hungry right now.)
Chocolate!!  I have always been a chocolate girl.  Though I do like vanilla, too, I just like chocolate more.


5. What are some books that make you perfectly and incandescently happy?
The Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Mark of the Lion series, and I LOVED Counted with the Stars which you can read my review HERE.  


6. What is a movie that you enjoyed which you originally weren't expecting to like?
Ant-Man.  I wasn't really looking forward to it, but it was really good!  Super funny and original.  I liked that it was different from the other super hero movies.


7. Given the choice between leaving your family behind in order to move to a fictional world or staying where you lived for the rest of your life, which would you choose?
Well, I don't want to leave my family or stay where I am for the rest of my life so...I will bring my family with me to Middle Earth or Narnia.  :-D

And we can all live here!  In all honesty, it would be a tight fit.  XD
8. Which mythical creature would you adopt?
A dragon!!  NOT Smaug though, I am going for Toothless.  He's so cute!! 

9. What is one of your biggest pet peeves?
I don't like messes/things out of order.  I am definitely a neat freak and I like everything in its place.

Drool...
10. What fictional character would you most like to have as a friend?
At this moment (I am a girl and I change my mind frequently:)) probably Shira from Counted with the Stars.  I loved her!  She would be a great friend to have.  Or Lucy Pevensie and Samwise Gamgee.

11. Would you rather write with a pencil or pen?
I don't mind either.  Pencil is nice because if you mess up you can erase it, but I like pens, too.  I guess I am indecisive on this question. ;)


Questions from Abigail

1. What is your earliest memory of reading, or being read to?
Reading myself would have to be the Bob books.  One of the books my Mom would read to me was  "And the Dish Ran Away with the Spoon," by Janet Stevens and Susan Stevens Crummel.  I love that book!  It's so stinkin cute!


2. Why did you choose to start a blog?
I wish I had an awesome meaningful answer for this one, but the truth is I don't really know.  I just wanted to. :D

3. Since this is the Infinity Dreams Tag, what is your biggest dream, no matter how out there it may
seem?
I would love to be in movies, do voice-overs, or be a Christian music artist.


4. Favorite subject in school? (If you in school still. If not, what WAS your favorite subject?) 
I always liked History and my last year in school I did British Literature and that was fun, too.

5. Where would you live in the world, if you could live anywhere?
I think it would be cool to live in the Italian countryside, the English countryside or somewhere in New Zealand.


6. How would you describe your personal style?
Classic, old-fashioned, and vintage, when I go out that is.  When I am at home, sweat pants and a tee shirt.

Isn't this pretty?
7. Who has inspired you? It can be anyone, past, present, fictional, or no. 
My Parents are a HUGE inspiration to me.  Along with C. S. Lewis and Tolkien, I am sure there are others as well.

8. Do you prefer open plains, and sparkling beaches, or rugged mountains and wild forests?
Rugged mountains and wild forests all the way!!  I am definitely more of a mountain girl.  The Pine trees and fresh air.  One of my favorite places up in the mountains is Lake Tahoe.  It is incredibly beautiful!
My beautiful Tahoe, this picture is not mine, however.
9. If you could meet one celebrity, who would you choose?
At the moment I really like Chris Pratt.  He's so nice and down to earth, not pompous like some of the others.  I also think it would be cool to meet Tom Hiddleston, because he is also super nice.

10. Favorite Disney princess? (Or Disney character if you don't prefer princesses.) 
Cinderella!!  I have always loved her.  She is so sweet and kind, and I always thought I kind of looked like her. :)


11. Favorite quote? 
O goodness, I don't think I have just one...so I will give you one of the ones that are my favorite.  Of course, I love all of C. S. Lewis's quotes.  They're my favorite.

One of my favorites.

Thank you so much, ladies!!  What fun!  As for the tagging, I am going to leave it open for anyone!  They did some great questions, so please feel free to take any of them.  I would love to know though if you do it, so please leave me a comment letting me know!  Thank you everyone!

  1. EEEP, I LOVE YOUR ANSWERS! Thanks so much for doing the tag! You picked GORGEOUS pictures. ^_^

    WAIT WHAT. YOU SAW PETER JACKSON GET HIS STAR. :O :O :O
    Girl, I am SO jealous!!! I may have died a little of happiness when I saw that. OH, and you were in a commercial, too???? Sheesh, that is WAY cool. Do you happen to know if it's somewhere on YouTube so I can watch it?

    I have glasses, too! I'm nearsighted, and I have to wear them all the time. 'Course, I don't really mind because everyone always says they make me look smarter... ;)

    YES, ADOPT TOOTHLESS. But...share. I want him too, precious. *smiles*

    Will you drop by and take me to Narnia or Middle-earth when you go? We can all live in Hobbiton and visit Rivendell and just be chill. (Except for when we're running away from orcs...)

    I am SUCH a neat freak! Messes drives me crazy. >.<

    That C.S. Lewis quote is the best. <3

    Lovely answers, Morgan! Thanks so much for doing the tag. :D (I'm also still kinda drooling over that vintage dress. *wipes drool off screen* Hehe, no one saw that.)

      Yes, it was really cool!! Something I will never forget!! Sadly, my commercial isn't on YouTube. My mom had it saved on the computer and now I can't find it. I'll let you know when I do! :) And it was very cool! Another thing I won't forget. :)

      I really like glasses. I got a pair of fake ones, too. :) They are so much fun! Yes, they do make you look smarter. ;)

      Ok...if I have to precious...if we have to...*smiles* ;)

      Definitely! I'll swing by and pick you up on an eagle. We'll visit all the Wonders of Middle Earth and have a splendid time! (Except the orcs part...I better get practicing with my bow!) XD
