Now for random facts about me!

1. I hate daylight savings time. Its cruel to change the hours on someone - just LEAVE IT BE!

2. I love the Drawsomething app... Just so much fun - if anyone has the drawsomething, let me know what your username is! I love that game.

3. I wanted to be a dancer while I was growing up - I just love the gracefulness of it all.

4. I love the book Ella Enchanted. It's my go to book. If I'm mad, I just go upstairs and read it and I feel instantly better. My copy is so worn - I love that :)

5. I have a major pet peeve with people thinking they are photographers simply because they own a DSLR. I'm sorry, a big fancy camera does not make you a photographer. You can have a DSLR and be learning about being a photographer (me), but I'm sorry quit trying so hard to sound important with your nice camera. If your only ever going to use the auto settings then get a durn point and shoot and quit wasting all that money. Either really learn or admit you aren't a photographer!

(no offense to anyone, I'm not referring to any bloggers, I'm referring to a relative who is seriously annoying  me with this topic. I really wish this relative would just stop). 

6. I love Scooby Doo fruit snacks :) they are simply the best!

7. I adored the show Kim Possible when I was younger. I was obsessed! I had to watch every show and every movie. Boy, was I bummed when it went off air **sob**

8. I can't stand bad endings or slow middles in books, just can't.

9. I correct gammer and point out flaws in book **ehem** irises and crepe myrtles do not bloom at the same time, I don't care how lovely the weather has been.

10. Sleeping Beauty is my favorite disney princess ever, although Rapunzel is now a close second, or wait, maybe I just like Ryder :)

11. I always wanted Jo in Little Women to marry Laurie. Not Professor Bhaer. And no, thats not just because Christian Bale plays him... I really really wanted them to get together!

Lauren's 11 questions for us:

1. If you could spend one day with anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would you spend it with?

Fred Astaire!! I'd have him teach me to dance :)

Dance Me to the End of Love by The Civil Wars or Stronger by Kelly Clarkson

3. What's your favorite summer activity, big or small?

Reading while being warmed by the sun - that or mowing :)

6. Who is the scariest movie villain?

That rat from Lady and the Tramp. And I am completely serious, thank you very much!

7. Did you like Aurora's dress more when it was pink, or when it was blue?

Pink Pink Pink - when I was little Mom and Daddy took me to the Disney store and I saw this Penny bank that was Aurora and they had it in both her pink dress and her blue and I wanted the pink one so bad. So I told Mom I wanted the pink one for my birthday - I got it too. I wonder what happened to that?

8. Who inspires you most, whether they be famous or non-famous?

I'm not easily inspired, but perhaps it's Alex and Brett Harris...

9. Would you rather sit down with a good book, or sit down all comfy cozy with the laptop and read blogs, pin stuff, Facebook creep, etc...?

Book - although I do both. Books are much better, except the book I'm reading right now. It is so slow.

10. Absolute favorite Disney character? (See, everything comes back to Disney with me ;))

Aurora - I have a little pewter charm for a necklace that is her. I'll have to take a picture of it one day. The skirt twirls!

11. What is one of your favorite quotes?

"Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!" — Charlotte Brontë (Jane Eyre)
