Jessica at "What's Cooking?" questions to me... I thought I would answer in pictures to make it more exciting!

1. If you could meet anyone (dead or alive) who would it be?

I think I've decided on Ellen. I just love that lady. I've put it on my bucket list to go to her show! I find myself watching clips from her show ALL the time. Coming in close second would probably be Tim McGraw. I mean just look at the guy. And his voice... ahhh.

or Taylor Swift. Mitt Romney would be cool too. I also love Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston. And George Bush. And Garth Brooks. Too many options!!

2. What would you do if you had a free day all to yourself?

Productive Idea: Be crafty. All day long.
Unproductive Idea: Nothing. Be lazy. All day long. ahhh...

Favorite place to eat out?

Goodwood BBQ. I worked there all through high school and never got sick of the food. And they catered our wedding dinner - now that's saying something! Go there, ASAP. 

4. What are you most passionate about? 

Clearly, this handsome man, my hubby. Also humanitarian work. 

5. Favorite vacation spot?

So far, Hawaii!! Although coming in close second is Lake Powell, Guatemala, Virgin Islands, Bermuda, and Puerto Vallarta. And I LOVE cruises.

Oh man that opened up a can of worms. I just spent an hour looking through all my vacation pictures reminiscing on all the fun adventures I've been on. Words can't even describe all the fun & happiness contained in all these pictures!

6. What are you afraid of?
SPIDERS!!! AHh! Probably more than being kidnapped, if you could believe it. And i REFUSE to post a picture of one on my blog. Seriously. Trent and I had a lot of spiders in our house when we first moved in, and we prayed every night that they would go away. Mostly for my peace of mind and sanity :) and since then, we haven't had any! Aw, God must really love me! 

7. What would you do with a million dollars? 

TRAVEL. Do humanitarian work. Give. And then go shopping :)

8. Best tip/advice you've ever received?
Hmmm... I think it would be don't do anything once that you don't want to do forever (like mow the lawn!) haha

9. Who/what inspires you?

Gosh these are good questions. Trent. My grandparents. My cute aunts Summer and Tami, just to name a few. Gosh now I feel like I'm leaving people out! My family basically entails most of them :)

10. Something you can't live without?

LOTION!!! I would die without it. Seriously, I could not handle it. My life would fall apart in shambles. 

11. Favorite Gummy bear flavor?
There are different flavors??? All i know is i always get gummy bears in my cake batter ice cream at Cold Stone! mmm...

Aw I'm sad that's over! That was fun! Anybody else wanna ask me any more questions that I could answer with a fun pictures that makes me happy and brings back fun memories?
