SO....the question is....Do you have a special predilection for one Parade?
I am such a dummy! I didn't look at the word long enough apparently....I know what Parades are....
I love the Thanksgiving and Christmas Day parades they have on television for the holidays

Chasseron and Chasseral are actually peaks within the Jura mountain range. I thought for sure you'd go for the Eiger, the Jungfrau and the Mönch. Or even the Matterhorn (the Toblerone mountain)

Oh Rigel--I can handle it! It's easy! I'm surprised I don't have tons to answer--wish more people would participate!


1.-wich one was the most crazy thing that you made it??????( i mean jump in parachute, ride a motocross...etc....
I think what I do crazy is riding on the back of Zack's motorcycle--it's kinda scary and fun at the same time. Don't worry--we don't get on the freeway, we just stay in the neighborhood.
2.- your favourite dream is???? I usually have dreams about us having kids and going places with them, those are my favorite!
3.- favourite cookies?
Chocolate Chip! Now, I need a cookie!!!!!!!!!!!
4.- do you like to wear rings? Yes, I do. I wear my wedding and engagement ring (it's a set) and on my right hand I wear the promise ring Zack gave me while we were dating.
5.- Gold or Silver choose one and say why! Both--because I like both!

6.- Are you Religious?
Somewhat--I am Baptist. We need to find a church, and actually get up on Sunday mornings to actually go--but we always sleep in since it is are only day off!

7.- Choose one Sunset or Sunrise and say why...
Sunset--I am a romantic and I think that Sunsets are more romantic than sunrises...
8.- Favourite Breed of cats is????? It's a toss up between Himalayans and Persians
9.- Do you like the "Blizzards" of Dairy Queen?..
YES!!!!!!!!!! I love Oreo blizzards, but my favorite from DQ is the chocolate dipped ice cream on a cone!
10.- Favourite colour to wear is???? Pink

I said "I hope you'll have the chance to practice your French during your holidays next year"


OK.... here are today's questions:

If you were asked to create a "timebox" the contents of which would remind future generations who you were, what 10 items would you put in the box?

Have you ever cried when you've been reading a book? If yes, which one?

Describe your dream job.

You're asked to do an "extreme sport" to raise money for your favourite charity. Which of the following would you choose: a solo parachute jump, a bungy jump off a suspension bridge, raft a Grade 5 white water river, base jump of a cliff, climb an ice waterfall or deep-sea dive?

Thanks Alexa! That's really awesome!

If you were asked to create a "timebox" the contents of which would remind future generations who you were, what 10 items would you put in the box? Hummmmmmmmmm....I would put in: one of my fatcat figurines, a piece of artwork that I've made, my childhood blanket, my "Mr. Bear" (my bear that my grandmother gave me when I was 4 years old), my journal, one of my cross necklaces, a picture of Zack and me, a piece of chocolate, a Pink ribbon (Breast Cancer Awareness, a charity that I fully support) and probably a Christmas ornament since I love Christmas sooo much!

Have you ever cried when you've been reading a book? If yes, which one? Nope, not that I can remember.

Describe your dream job. I would have to say right now besides my regular job, I volunteer on the weekends at The Children's musuem, and right now...that seems to make me my happiest!! My dream job will come true really soon when I will be able to teach children every day. I am very excited about that!
