    500 Comments Third Anniversary 25 Love Its Name Dropper

    Favorite color: Pink, Coral
    Hobbies: Reading (obviously), riding my horse, 
    Favorite movies:It's like asking a mother to name her favorite child. 
    Favorite books: See above.  
    Best bookmark you've ever had: I had a cute little Downton Abbey one that I got at the library. There wasn't really anything special about it other than the fact that it was Downton Abbey. Also once my grandmother cross stitched one for me that I had for years and years. I was so sad when I finally lost it. It had a Teddy Bear on it and said "Beary Good Book".  Kind of cheesy but I loved it.
