Things I Love

I must admit this list will be HARD to stop because I LOVE so many things.  The more things I do and see, the more things I love!  Yep, I guess I am pretty easy to please.

Most of all I love God.  He is my best Friend and I want to get to know Him more each day.
And then, after that,
I love...

1) My hubby and girls.  They are my world.
2) Horses, I have loved them ever since I can remember.  Some day I WILL have my dozen of them.
3) Monkeys.  I have a HUGE collection of stuffed ones.  I always wanted my own.  And I like to watch them in the zoo, especially the gorillas!
4) Cats.  I think it's their sweet independent ways.  I like to get them to like me.  It takes awhile, but it ALWAYS works. 
5) Mountains.  I can't think of ONE thing I don't like about them.  The beauty in the mountains is breathtaking.  I can't imagine life without them.
6) Hiking.  I used to complain about hiking, but now I miss those long energizing hikes my family used to take to those gorgeous mountain lakes.
7) Swimming.  This one is a little strange, but true.  I love to be in the water more than anything, but I am terrified of DEEP water.  I don't swim very well, but I love swimming!  Anyone that knows me very well, knows I always ask to stop by water so I can put my feet in! ;)
8) Learning.  I LOVE to learn.  About so many things I can't list them.  Learning expands the mind, and I LOVE that feeling of expansion.
9) MUSIC.  I can't even describe how much I love this one.  I love ALL kinds of music except for heavy metal and rap.  I love to play the piano.  And the flute and trumpet.  I want to learn my guitar someday soon. 
10) I love to WRITE music.  Ever since I was little I wrote songs.  I used to write them while I rode my horse.  I wrote songs for both of my girls' church dedications.  I want to publish music someday. 
11) I love everything to do with America and the fourth of July.  I am very patriotic.  I hate politics.  I love the British and England.  I have no idea why.  That was always my favorite unit in school. 
12) I love words.  Anything to do with words.  I used to sit for hours and read my vocabulary book.  (I know, don't laugh)  I love listening to people speak other languages.  I want to learn Finnish because my grandparents spoke it.  Language is so much fun!
13) Little House on the Prairie.  I spent HOURS reading the books.  I caught up on the shows later in life, actually just recently.  I was scared to watch them because they were different from the books.  Now I just love them both!  I'm addicted!!
14)  LOVE to make new friends. There's nothing more cool than meeting another friend and bonding with them.  I love my old time friends too.  Couldn't live without 'em.
15)  I love all of my family.  They are always there for me.  They are the best.
16)  I love a good discussion.  I like it when people will discuss stuff and not get mad at each other even if they don't agree.  It's fun to find out how people think.
17)  I love roses.  And all flowers.  But I hate gardening.  It's too discouraging.
18)  I love love love FOOD!  Especially sweet things.  I wish I could eat all I want and not gain a pound.  I like food because it makes people feel comfortable with each other.
19)  I LOVE the color TURQUOISE...and red, black, white, and silver.  I just love color period.  Colors make life interesting.
20)  I love interior design, makeup, beauty, style, any of that fun stuff that makes us look better. 
21)  I LOVE shopping!!  Way too much. ;)
22)  I love books.  Books about pioneer life, personalities, interior design, kids, babies, can't even list them all!  Oh and magazines!!  They are SO much fun. 
23)  COOKING.  I just wish I could cook and NOT have to clean up.  Can I hire a maid? 
24)  Crafting.  There's so many cool things to make.  I love to paint especially!  It always makes stuff look so pretty.  You can transform anything with a coat of paint!
25)  I love getting mail.  Can't be anything more fun than getting a package in the mail.  It feels like Christmas.
26)  Which reminds me, CHRISTMAS!  I LOVE that holiday.  SO fun fun fun.  I also love Easter.  I can't decide which one I like better.
27)  SUMMER.  Warm beautiful summer.  Laying in the grass and feeling the breeze and listening to the birds.  Nothing better.
28)  Photography.  AND my new camera.  I love to take pictures, especially of people. 
29)  I love life.  It's beautiful.
30)  Blogging.  I have met such lovely people and I just love sharing my life with them.  Blogging is just the BEST!!
