I heart . . .

I love Jesus. He is the Lord of my life, and I strive to live in such a way that when I do meet Him, He will call me faithful. One of my favorite verses is Eph. 4:1 "Live a life worthy of the calling you've received." My calling is to be Jesus to those around me. I hope that when I am through with this life, people will say that I did live a life that was worthy of being called a follower of Christ.
I love my family. My husband is my best friend and has been since I have been fourteen. I still think he is a hottie. I think my three girls are the most beautiful children in the world. I really do adore them. I also think that I have the best job in the world which is staying home with them. I absolutely love my yellow lab Jackson. He is my dream dog and has been my constant companion for the last seven years. I have moments of fondness for my other dog Charlie. He definitely doesn't hold Jackson status, but he is growing on me.
I love my church. I think we get it, and I love that I have so many friends there that feel like family.
I love hanging out with the KAMTASazzo's plus Phil. I also love hanging out with my cousin Lizzie when she comes to stay with me.
I love to read. I am a big fan of the Bible. Not only do I read it, but I strive to live by it. I want to be the "light of the world" and by life to be "worthy of the calling I've received."
I love Little Women, Gone With the Wind, Pride and Prejudice, and a lot of Hemingway.
If I was fifteen, I would have the biggest crush ever on
Harry Potter.
I love to read Fiction and Memoirs.
The best books I have read in 2006 are Marley and Me, Wicked, and The Life of Pi. The best books so far from 2007 are Velvet Elvis and While I was gone, but of course I am eagerly waiting for the Harry Potter finale.
I love movies. I love movies. I can watch and enjoy anything from a mainstream blockbuster or a low budget indy film.
I am not a huge fan of stupid comedy or horror.
My favorite movie of all time is The Wizard of OZ.
Four more for my top five? Life is Beautiful, In America, You've Got Mail, Chocolat. Five more for my top ten? Goonies, Princess Bride, The Little Mermaid, Grease.
Maybe those really aren't my top ten, but I love them all.
I would also have to add that the Pirates of the Caribbean is the best trilogy ever, and I have to say that Elizabeth Swann is a complete fool for ever choosing Will Turner over Captain Jack Sparrow...I wish I were a pirate.
I love music. Dave Matthews is my fav of all time. I dig John Mayer.
I have a girl crush on the Dixie Chicks. I love old hymns,songs that tell a story, and any song that takes me away. My favorite that is constantly playing on my ipod is Group 1 Crew. I am a big fan of Christian music that doesn't suck.
I love TV. What can I say except that my favorite place to get a cup of coffee is Central Perk,if I could be anyone in the world I would be Kierstin Cohen and Sarah Clark will be our next American Idol!
You give me five seconds, and I could easily tell you who my five best friends would be if I were stuck on "the island."

my life as a movie

Have you ever made the "if my life were a movie list"?
You know, like who would be your parents, your brother, your boyfriend. . .
Well, here is mine:
Tom Hanks would be my dad.
Gina Davis would be my mom.
John Travolta and Steven Schirripa would be my uncles.
Meg Ryan would be my aunt.
Adam Sandler and Ashton Kutcher would be my brothers.
Kate Hudson would be my sister.
Anthony Hopkins and Julie Andrews would be my grandparents.
Johnny Depp is definately my true love, but Leonardo DiCaprio comes in close second. (I have a thing for little, skinny guys! right robbie?)
Reese Witherspoon would be my best friend.
Although I would choose to look like Jennifer Aniston if I could look like anyone, I think I would have to pick Drew Barrymore to play me.
