Some of My Favorite Things.....

I was thinking about the song from The Sound of Music, My Favorite Things and I thought it would be fun to write down some of my favorite things. Starting with 10 to 1 mean my all time favorite thing. So here it goes.







10. Clothes. But the thing is I have a hard time finding clothes I like but when I find a item of clothing that I totally like that is so great! My favorite outfit is jeans, western shirt, and fatbabys (cowgirl boots, they are awesome!)









9. Movies. I really like watching movies. A few of my favorite movies are: High School Musical 1 and 2 ( I haven't seen the 3rd one yet) The Man from Snowy River and Return to Snowy River, All three Pirate movies, and old disney movies like That Darn Cat and The Love Bug. Grab a bowl of popcorn, some Dots, and sit down to a good movie and that is a real good time.








8.Swimming. I really enjoy it! The water feels so good on a hot day and when I glide through the water I feel like a dolphin. It is so much fun!







7.Dancing. I enjoy letting the music guiding me and I sometimes can't help it to starting dancing a little when I hear a song I like. Dancing is awesome!







6.Music. I really like music. My favorite is country . Music can say things that words can't and it can help me feel better.





5.Food. I enjoy food a lot! Eating, making it and sharing it with others. In some ways when I cook it is very relaxing. I can remember the food that was part of the special times of my life. Food is great!



4.Traveling. I enjoy going on trips. So far I have been to: Venice, Florence, and Pisa Italy and Salzburg, Austria, a number of states, and Canada. I really enjoy traveling . My next place I would like to go is Australia. I always wanted to go there since I was a young girl. I hope I'll get to see more of the world someday.

3.Horses and horseback riding. I love everything about horses! The way they smell so rich and clean, saddles and bridles, all the different breeds, the way I feel when I am riding high on a horse and nothing can touch me. When I am riding a horse my mind is clear and nothing else matters. Horses and riding them is my little piece of heaven.

2. Books. I so much love books! Ever since I can remember I loved reading books. My whole family does too and I am glad that my parents started us kids at a young age of taking us to the library and introducing us to the wonderful world of books. I think one of the best way to have an adventure is to read a book. Books are the best!

1.Animals are my number 1 favorite thing. They bring so much joy to my life. As long as I can remember I have always loved animals.As a child I grow up with dogs and cats, in New Mexico we had a little farm and we had two pigs, a goat, and chickens. While we were living in Iowa City we bottle fed some lambs and I really enjoyed that and I hope I get another chance to do it again. Animals are so part of who I am and I am so happy when I am with them. We can all learn a lot from animals, they love you unconditionally and they understand when you need a little extra love. Heavenly Father must surely love us all to have created animals. They are a blessing in my life and I look forward when I will be able to have a dog, a cat, etc.
