2. What are you wearing today?
jeans, t-shirt, and cardigan with flip-flops

5. What are you listening to right now? Rojo, oh wait, the kids are putting on an Odyssey tape...
6. What do you think about the person who tagged you? In general or for tagging me?! lol JK, Angela has been a friend for a long time and even though we live quite far apart, are probably better friends now than we've ever been...
7. If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you like it to be?

8. What are your must-have pieces for summer? t-shirts, flip-flops, cropped pants
9. If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go? maybe a nice, warm beach in Australia? It's cold here this morning!
10. Which language do you want to learn?
since we'd love to work in a tribe, it would be whatever tribal language we were learning at that point, with Bible translation in mind...
11. What’s your favorite quote? other than favorite verses out of the Bible, don't think I really have one...but I heard a good one the other day, something like "Be kind, everyone you meet is in a great battle." I think people are struggling more than we know...
12. Who do you want to meet right now? Jesus...I long for His return!
13. What is your favorite color?
I am really quite partial to red, I think, although I usually choose green tokens when playing games...

missionary and I already have it!!!!

17. If you had $100 now, what would you spend it on?
probably on groceries and some special snacks for the kids
18. What do you consider a fashion faux pas?
I not certainly not one to offer advice in this area, but I would say wearing clothes that don't fit right and make you look funny (example: muffin-tops because of tight, low-cut jeans)
19. Who according to you is the most over-rated style icon?
not sure, I'm not really 'up' on current styles, although I would say that I think Hollywood is definitely over-rated in general!

something very easy to care for, right now short is good
21. What are you going to do after this?
fix pancakes for breakfast

Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia (why oh why does it take SO long for the next one to come out?!), family-friendly movies, some science-fiction, action/drama...

Dove soap, foundation, my natural deoderant spray
24. What inspires you?
missionary stories, great stories of people who have overcome, Beth Moore, good music

New 25. What makes you feel most alive? a meaningful quiet time with God, a good emotional connection with my DH, Miguel...sharing a cup of coffee with a friend, meeting a need, a good phone conversation with my Mom or sisters, a good book...
26. What do you do when you “have nothing to wear” (even though your closet’s packed)?
throw things, rant and rave...then choose something I at least feel comfortable in...lol
27. Coffee or tea?
definitely coffee!!! In fact, need a refill now, be right back...
28. What do you do when you are feeling low or terribly depressed?
wallow in self-pity, sleep, mindlessly read shallow novels and then come to my senses and call out to God! I'm a talker, too, so talking to a good friend or sister is good, too...
29. What is the meaning of your name? I've always heard that Rebecca means "peacemaker", but now that I look it up, it's coming up with "to tie" or "knotted cord", weird. I think I prefer "peacemaker". Ann means "gracious, merciful".
30. Which other blogs do you love visiting?
I think I need to start a blogroll, there are so many...of course, I will name Unveiling Radiance since Angela was the one who tagged me, missionary women blogs of which there are too numerous to mention here, WOTH's CoffeeGirl Community blog, In Real Life with Jamie Jo, etc...

distance, guard your heart, set up boundaries

according to reliable sources, I tend to get noisy, such as when working in the kitchen! And I talk to myself...then I come back around and pray...
36.Who is the modern ideal girl..the one who knows how to shop, dress and enjoy or the one who is simple but manages the house, kids and herself well?
definitely the latter...
Whew, I'm done! I have no idea who to tag, I guess if you are reading this, consider yourself tagged! It's fun to learn more about each other...
