My favorite book is a toss up between The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas or Pride and Predjudice by Jane Austen. But then again maybe my favorite is a series like J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings or the Zion Covenant series by Bodie Thoene. I just can't decide!
During my life, I have only lived in Utah. But if I could pick a place to live, it would have to be San Diego, because of the climate and the beach!

October fun fact: October is one of my favorite months with Halloween being my favorite holiday. I almost never dress up because I don’t enjoy that, by our family has created some awesome traditions that I DO enjoy such as watching certain movies like “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown” and “Arsenic and Old Lace”. Another tradition is attending a Halloween party at my sister’s house and taking my sons and nieces trick-or-treating around their neighborhood.
