The Leibster Award



I have been awarded the Leibster Award! A big thank you to Jesseca Dawn (www.akansaswind.blogspot.com) and Calamity Rene (http://wildinwashington.blogspot.com/)! 

Here are the rules to the "game":
a. Acknowledge the blog that nominated you: Alrighty. Check.
b. Answer the 11 questions the nominating blogger created: Done.

Here are the questions from Jesseca, followed by the answers (I'll answer Calamity's at the end):

1. What is your favorite season?
Winter for sure!

2. What do you enjoy doing most during that season?
Well, my birthday, and Christmas, and being with my family while it's cool and we can have our wood stove burning.

3.Do you play any instruments? If so, which ones?
No, but I am learning keyboard.

4. What is your favorite style of music?
I enjoy contemporary Christian.

5.Who is your favorite author?
My Grandpa—Randall Reinstedt
and Susan Marlow
or Lauraine Snelling
or Martha Finley
or Jerry Jenkins and Chris Fabry
or Dandi Dally Mackall

6.If you could do anything you wanted, what would you choose to do?
Hmm, probably go on a back-country trip on some horses.

7. What is your favorite animal?
HORSES!

8. What is your favorite thing to do around a campfire?
I'm not sure. I guess just hang out with my family.

9.Who do you most enjoy spending time with?
My family for sure.

10.What is your favorite riddle?
I don't really have one. But IF I had to pick one, I would say this: A woman lives on the seventh floor of an apartment building. Every morning she gets in the elevators and goes to the level one, goes to work, but when she comes home, she presses the button for the fifth floor, and then walks up the rest of the stairs to her room. Why doesn't she just hit the seventh story button when she is going home?
(You guys can guess and I will post the answer later. )

11. What is your favorite radio drama? (If you listen to any)
Jonathan Park, or Adventures in Oddysey.

The qustions from Calamity Rene:
1. You just got awarded a million dollars. What are you going to do with it?
Good question. Well some I would tithe, some of it would go to missionaries, etc, some of it would be to travel, part of it for a horse ranch and lots of horses, and some just for whatever.

I'm not sure. Probably the time of Jesus.

I SUPPOSE riding!!!

Ooooooo. Someone who works with horses and kids. Also a mom and wife.

10. What's your favorite wild animal?
I like polar bears, wild horses (hehehe. Does that count? :-D), and dolphins.

11. If you could ask God one question, what would it be?
Yet another difficult one. The hardest of all...probably something about the end times. But I'm not sure.

Jesseca Dawn and Calamity Rene: Thank you. If you could, just even in a comment answer the questions I asked, I would love to get to know you more. If you want to do it in a post that is fine too!

    A blond opens a box of cheerios, stares in, then exclaims, "Look! Doughnut seeds!" or: How do you drown a blond? By putting a scratch-n-sniff at the bottom of the swimming pool.

    11. If you could go to any time period, when would it be?
    REALLY hard question, because I love so many time periods! But I would like to go back to WWII so I could help rescue the Jews.
