Randomized...and the Pizza Princesses

Last week, two new blog friends (whom I really enjoy!) asked some random questions and I agreed to, well, randomly answer them. Before I knew what they would be! How scary!
I'm doing Susan's first...and Linda, I promise to answer yours next! So...here goes...


1. What's your worst pet peeve?
(Do you mean, my worst peeve about my pet? Because at the moment, I could go on and on...) OK, seriously...
I think it would be people who are just plain rude or condescending to others.

2. What are five things you would do if "money were no object"?
(This list contains a lot of selfish things...because I'm dreaming here...)

1) Have a vacation home somewhere...probably Maui.
2) Own our "regular" home somewhere in the country...horses, lambs...and a cow named Daisy. (Hey, it's always been a dream, OK?)
3) Have a personal gym in our country home, complete with trainer and a personal masseuse, who come by three times a week. (Any more, and I would just be too spoiled...)
4) In all honesty, be able to freely give unreservedly to Christian ministries that work to spread the Gospel as well as feed the hungry.
5) Hire a professional dog trainer so that our six month old lab would lie around contently by the fire and bring us our slippers instead of just chewing them up.

3. If you could be an inanimate object, what would you be and why?
Oh, this is a tough one! Maybe a hot air balloon...now, if you had to be inanimate, flying up there above the scenery would be a lot of fun!

4. OK, fess up, some people have eaten crayons or tasted glue. What's the strangest thing you've ever taste-tested? Where were you and why did you do it?
I really have to fess up? Well, I was about six years old and our dog had recently had a litter of puppies. I was amazed that the puppies didn't have to eat puppy chow yet but got their milk from their mama. Hmmm...milk? Really? Could you milk a dog just like you do a cow?
Let's just say, you can only get a few drops of milk into a glass from a mama dog...

5. If you were standing before all of your friends and family and they asked you to summarize yourself in one to two songs, what would you sing and why?
Oh, this was the toughest of them all!
Maybe that old Bobby Darin song, "Beyond the Sea". I have always loved that song growing up...and then when my new husband was on deployment "out to sea" I loved it even more!

OK...who wants to brave and let me "randomize" you? I promise not to ask anything too, too personal...and spare you the humiliating milking dog stories...

In other news, my little baby is about to turn five this week. FIVE!
Yesterday, after church, she had a little birthday party with her friends (a few days early) at a pizza place (where there's a big play area galore with slides, tunnels and a mini-ferris wheel!)
















They had a wonderful time!

But after frolicking through a pit of balls, by the end of the party, we saw quite a few disheveled princesses!
But whoever said royalty can't have fun!
