6 questions.
Some with silly answers, some might be a little more serious.
All designed to spark conversation and let you get to know the blogger you read a little better. Not my idea, but Kendra’s, with Answer Me This
Let’s go –
1. Beach or Mountains? Where would you rather be?
The beach, without a doubt.
My entire family is happier when we’re on the beach. The kids run and play, my husband feels like he is home, and I love the air, the sea … everything.
2. Which is more fun: Christmas Eve, or Christmas morning?
Christmas Eve.
Inevitably, I’ve left things until the last minute, and it’s a wild scramble to get things wrapped and get to bed. But, as my back is aching while wrapping presents, I think of my sweet little ones and how much they enjoy Christmas morning.
I always go to bed happy on Christmas Eve.
3. Whatโs the most embarrassing childhood outfit you remember wearing?
I didn’t think I had a good answer to this question,then I remembered that my grandmother loves to put old pictures on Facebook.
How about this gem?
Add in the blue eyeshadow, rings on every finger and permed hair – we’ve got a winner!
4. Your house is quiet, you donโt have to do work (housework included). What do you do?
Drink an entire pot of French pressed coffee and read a book while sitting in the sun. I’d also love to squeeze in some writing, too!
5. What movie do you want to watch when youโre feeling under the weather?
Depends on if I want to laugh or swoon. Need to laugh? Zoolander, hands down. Want a romantic comedy? I could watch Shakespeare in Love until my eyes bleed.
6. Did you have an American Girl doll when you were little? If so, which one?
Nope. I’m not sure they were around when I was young.
We had Strawberry Shortcake dolls – I had quite the collection!
Were you surprised by some of these answers?

I’m with you on the cold thing AND the Strawberry Shortcake dolls. I could smell those dolls all day!
Dianna Kennedy says
My kids are AMAZED that I had these dolls when I was a kid. They think they have the market cornered on cool toys!
Erica Saint @ Boys, Books, and Balls says
Yes! I wore a ring on every finger, too. And I had the same rainbow of hair over my forehead. Ha! Awesome picture!
Dianna Kennedy says
What the heck was up with the rings? Like we wouldn’t have time to wear them all? Argh!
Amelia @ One Catholic Mama says
I love your swimsuit in that picture!
And, I think your embarassing outfit picture is cute….not embarassing at all. Blue eye shadow and permed hair was all the rage at that time!
Dianna Kennedy says
That suit was a consignment sale find, I think. ๐ That was at least two children/three or four years ago! ๐
In my day, it was the bigger the hair, the better. ๐
Holly says
Haha I love that your Grandma posts childhood pictures of you on Facebook.
My grandmother always posts embarrassing current pictures of me, so I guess that’s worse ๐
Dianna Kennedy says
Oh, she gets me with the current bad pics too. I’m like “Granny! Please!”
Emily says
You are brave to post a picture of your embarrassing outfit.. much braver than I! Also, French Press coffee is THE BEST.
Ashley Pichea says
I’ll join you on the beach ๐
Ingrid says
You look lovely in that outfit:)
Strawberry Shortcake plush dolls are so cute. I had no idea even soft cuddle dolls have been made into collections. They look like they could be made by hand.
Ticia says
That picture isn’t THAT bad in comparison to 80s pictures… Neon, teased hair… Need I say more?
Annery says
Haha! The perm! I had a pretty fantastic one too. Luckily, none of my older relatives post those pictures ๐
