"These are a few of my favorite things..."

Here's the deal....I LOVE MAKING LISTS!!! I've searched long and hard for a good explanation as to the origin of this obsession, but at the end of the day, it just makes me happy. So, if you're reading this blog, which you are, I'm only left to assume that you care about a list of my favorite things in life. So I appreciate that about you:)

To avoid cliches, lets just go ahead and assume that my true favorite things involve every attribute of God, and most everything about Tommy and the rest of my friends and family. If you're expecting some deep revelation from the following list, you'll have to wait for another entry. This list is purely surface, but be not deceived...the following things bring true joy to my everyday life!

Okay, enough with the build up...here it is, in no particular order:

1. Baby names... You may think that this is a recent obsession, but it's not. I've loved picking out names since I was a kid. The meaning of a name is so powerful and at any given moment, I have a list of about 20 names swirling through my head that I adore...Just ask me:)
   
2. Anthropologie...I'm pretty sure I could live in that store. All the colors, the smells, the happy people, the amazing clothes and accessories. I basically want my life to be an anthropologie catalog.
3. People watching...I love meeting new people and hearing their stories, but if I'm at a party with a lot of people I don't know, I become paralyzed by my need to "people watch". I literally shut down, because I am so interested in how other people are interacting with one another, what they are wearing, who they came with, and so on...I have to intentionally start talking and stop staring:) Does that make me a weirdo? hahaha
4. Movies...Going to the movie theater is one of my all time favorite things to do. I'll even go home after the movie and put on a DVD. I think this has a lot to do with my people watching issue. I love a movie with great character development and tons of plot twists, which brings me to my next fav...
5. LOST...I mean, really. If you're a fan, you know why this made the list.

Okay, being as this is a new blog, I don't want to overload you with information, so I'll continue the list at another time. In case you're wondering at this point "What is the goal of this blog?", eventually, this will be the main place for fam and friends to get updates on the life of Jubilee and Tommy and I. It's also just a little glimpse into our lives and minds. So if you're into that sort of thing,stay tuned...
